Spinal Accessory Nerve Palsy

Journal of Manual & Manipulative Therapy, 1996
AbstractThis 46 year old female sustained a right humeral Holstein fracture without radial nerve complications related to a ski fall. She also sustained a left spinal accessory nerve traction injury which was undiagnosed until six weeks post-fracture. There was significant denervation of the left upper, middle and lower trapezius muscles.

Transfers of the Ipsilateral C7 Plus the Spinal Accessory Nerve Versus Triple Nerve Transfers for Treatment of C5-C6 Avulsion of the Brachial Plexus.

Journal of Hand Surgery-American Volume, 2019
PURPOSE To compare the long-term results of transfers of the ipsilateral C7 (IC7) plus spinal accessory nerve (SAN) with those of triple nerve transfers (TNT) using one fascicle of the ulnar nerve to the biceps motor branch (Oberlin's procedure), SAN ...

Spinal Accessory Nerve

2015
Although, the accessory nerve is the 11th cranial nerve, we will discuss here the spinal component due to its importance in nerve injuries and repair. The spinal accessory nerve arises from the upper cervical spinal cord (C1–C5), ascends between the dentate ligament and the posterior cervical rootlets, then through the foramen magnum joins the cranial ...

Spinal accessory nerve meningioma at the foramen magnum with medullar compression: a case report and literature review.

World Neurosurgery, 2019
BACKGROUND Meningiomas that arise from the cranial nerve are rare. We present a case with an intradural extramedullary tumor at the foramen magnum originating from the spinal accessory nerve.

Spinal Accessory Nerve Function following Neck Dissection

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1988
Spinal accessory nerve (SAN) function was evaluated by electromyography (EMG) and muscle testing in 36 patients who underwent neck dissection with SAN preservation. The results emphasized that SAN function was relatively good after conservative neck surgery. Muscle testing findings showed better function than did EMC findings.

Sensory pathways in the spinal accessory nerve

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1999
We obtained samples of spinal accessory nerve from patients undergoing radical surgery for tumours or nerve grafting in the neck. These were analysed by light and electron microscopy for the type of fibre. All contained fibres consistent with non-proprioceptive sensory function including pain.

Comparison of Functional Results After Cross-Face Nerve Graft-, Spinal Accessory Nerve-, and Masseter Nerve-Innervated Gracilis for Facial Paralysis Reconstruction: The Chang Gung Experience

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2018
Background Using functioning free muscle transplantation (FFMT) for facial paralysis and postparalysis facial synkinesis reconstruction is our preferred technique. Gracilis was the first choice of muscle.

The glossopharyngeal, vagus and spinal accessory nerves

European Journal of Radiology, 2010
The glossopharyngeal, vagus and spinal accessory nerves are closely related anatomically, and to a certain extent, functionally. We present an overview of their anatomy, highlighting the important clinical and imaging implications. The main pathologic lesions arising from these nerves are also discussed and the imaging features reviewed.

Anatomic Alert: Spinal accessory nerve traversing a fenestrated internal jugular vein

British Journal of Neurosurgery, 2019
We present a case of the spinal accessory nerve traversing a fenestrated internal jugular vein. Awareness of this variant may be important in neurosurgical procedures that involve upper cervical exposures.

Spinal accessory nerve in radical neck dissections

The American Journal of Surgery, 1969
Abstract Two hundred fifty radical neck dissections performed in 208 patients from January 1960 through December 1964 are reviewed. The spinal accessory nerve was sacrificed in the course of the dissection in 161 and was preserved in 89. Five patients died in the immediate postoperative period.
