Spastic Facial Muscle Disorders

2012
Facial muscles are a group of striated muscles that, among other things, control facial expression and are innervated by the facial nerve (CNVII). In contrast, the nearby eyelid retractor muscle and masticator muscles are innervated by the oculomotor (CNIII) and mandibular branch of trigeminal nerve (CNV), respectively.

Muscle Elastography in Multiple Sclerosis Spasticity

Neurodegenerative Disease Management, 2016
Ultrasound elastography is a novel imaging modality for evaluating the elasticity of biological tissues. The technique is widely used in oncology to detect and differentiate malignant lesions in soft tissues. Studies have explored use of ultrasound elastography to measure the mechanical properties of muscle in patients with multiple sclerosis ...

Pathology of Spastic Muscle in Cerebral Palsy

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979
The histopathology of muscle in cerebral palsy has not been elucidated because correlated morphologic and biochemical data on normal pediatric muscles are insufficient to allow adequate correlation of pathologic findings. One hundred and eight muscle biopsies were taken during reconstructive operations on 85 patients.

Treatment of spasticity with muscle afferent block

Neurology, 1999
In 1924, Walshe1 first reported that intramuscular injection of diluted procaine reduced muscle rigidity in a patient with postencephalitic parkinsonism. Its mechanism of action was attributed to blockade of muscle afferents because the muscle motor response elicited by electric stimulation was unchanged.

MUSCLE GROWTH IN NORMAL AND SPASTIC MICE

Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 1984
SUMMARYLongitudinal muscle growth was studied in normal and spastic mice. Muscle growth takes place at the musculotendinous junction—the ‘muscle growth‐plate’. In spastic mice muscle growth is reduced by 45 per cent, resulting in contractures.RESUMECroissance musculaire chez les souris normales et spastiquesLa croissance longitudinale du muscle a ...

Muscle physiology in spasticity and muscle stiffness

Toxicon
This paper examines the physiological changes in spastic muscles contributing to spasticity and muscle stiffness, focusing on the underlying mechanisms and their clinical implications. Spasticity, which is prevalent in neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, spinal cord injury, stroke, and traumatic brain injury, is ...

SPASTIC CONTRACTION OF TENSOR TYMPANI MUSCLE.

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1892
The purpose of this paper is to present, in as concise a manner as possible, a case of objective noise in the head. Objective noises in the ears are of uncommon occurrence, as only a small number of cases have been reported. The sound usually produced is said to resemble the snapping of the finger nails, or the sudden drawing apart of the finger ends ...

[Muscle tonus in rigidity and spasticity].

Zhurnal voprosy neirokhirurgii imeni N. N. Burdenko, 1979
The results of the examination of the muscle tone by passive movement of the extremity at a low and high rate in patients with spasticity are discussed. In parkinsonism high resistance was noted to passive movements of the extremity at a low rate (with a period of oscillatory movement of 100 s and more) as well as in the first cycles of rapid ...
