A rare intraoperative spinal cord injury caused by thoracic 8 nerve root interruption during posterior vertebral column resection surgery for severe congenital kyphoscoliosis: a case report

BMC Neurology, 2020
Background To our knowledge, the exposed nerve roots in thoracic spine are usually sacrificed to facilitate osteotomy during posterior vertebral column resection (PVCR) for severe spinal deformity.

Paraneoplastic ganglioradiculoneuritis in a cat with a plasma cell tumour

Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery Open Reports, 2021
Case summary An 8-year-old neutered female domestic longhair cat was presented for investigation of a 48 h history of lethargy and pelvic limb ataxia. MRI of the spinal cord and vertebral column (C1 to sacrum) and brain was unremarkable.

Theory of Bowstring Disease: Diagnosis and Treatment Bowstring Disease

Orthopaedic Surgery, 2019
Bowstring disease (BSD) is a new classification of spine disease caused by axial stretched lesion on nerve roots and the spinal cord, which is differentiated from disc herniation and canal stenosis in that it is caused by nerve compression lesions.

Effects of electrode configuration and geometry on fiber preference in spinal cord stimulation [PDF]

, 1996
In contrast to the widespread assumption that dorsal column fibers are the primary targets of spinal cord stimulation by a dorsal epidural electrode, it appears that dorsal root fibers are recruited as well, and even preferentially under various ...

Differentiation between Anterior and Posterior Roots Using Compound Muscle Action Potential in Intradural Extramedullary Spinal Tumor Surgery

Neurologia Medico-Chirurgica
This study aims to determine the cutoff values for the compound muscle action potential (CMAP) stimulus in anatomically identified anterior (motor nerve) and posterior roots (sensory nerve) during cervical intradural extramedullary tumor surgery.

An Anatomical Variation in the Formation of the Inferior Root of Ansa Cervicalis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2013
During regular dissections, we observed an unusual organization of the inferior root of Ansa Cervicalis (AC). The superior root of ansa arose normally from the hypoglossal nerve. The ventral ramus of the C2 spinal nerve divided into two branches. One of

Cas Adaptor Proteins Coordinate Sensory Axon Fasciculation. [PDF]

, 2018
Development of complex neural circuits like the peripheral somatosensory system requires intricate mechanisms to ensure axons make proper connections. While much is known about ligand-receptor pairs required for dorsal root ganglion (DRG) axon guidance ...

An open-access lumbosacral spine MRI dataset with enhanced spinal nerve root structure resolution

Scientific Data
Spinal cord injury (SCI) profoundly affects an individual’s ability to move. Fortunately, recent advancements in neuromodulation, particularly the spatio-temporal epidural electrical stimulation (EES) targeting the spinal nerve roots, promoted rapid ...

Reconstruction of nerve root sheaths for sacral extradural spinal meningeal cysts with spinal nerve root fibers [PDF]

Science China Life Sciences, 2013
This study analyzed the clinical characteristics and outcomes of sacral extradural spinal meningeal cysts with spinal nerve root fibers treated by reconstruction of the nerve root sheaths. The relationships between the cysts and spinal nerve root fibers were examined microscopically, the cysts were partially excised, and the defects were oversewn to ...
