Injury to the spinal accessory nerve can lead to dysfunction of the trapezius. The trapezius is a major scapular stabilizer and is composed of three functional components. It contributes to scapulothoracic rhythm by elevating, rotating, and retracting the scapula.

Spine, 1995
The pathophysiology of sciatica is not completely understood, although our understanding of its causes is increasing. Mechanical alterations combined with inflammatory changes lead to pain. Compression alters nerve root conduction and compromises the nutritional support of spinal nerve roots (through intrinsic and extrinsic vascularity and cerebral ...

Spinal nerve root stimulation (SNRS) is a neuromodulation technique that is used to treat chronic pain. This modality places stimulator electrode array(s) along the spinal nerve roots, creating stimulation paresthesias within the distribution of the target nerve root(s), thereby treating pain in that same distribution. There are several different forms

Abstract The human body contains 12 cranial nerves and 31 pairs of spinal nerves. Spinal nerves carry motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body. They correspond to a segment of the vertebral column: 8 cervical pairs (C1–C8), 12 thoracic pairs (T1–T12), 5 lumbar pairs (L1–L5), 5 sacral pairs (S1–S5), and 1

In 7 cases of peripheral lesion of the spinal accessory nerve 4 were produced by malignancy, two by iatrogenical resection of lymph nodes, one by an en bloc dissection of the neck for arteriovenous malformation. Incapacity following the injury is quite marked and includes weakness of the sternomastoid and trapezius muscles, as well as pain presumably ...

Spinal Accessory Nerve Lesions
Seminars in Neurology, 2009The spinal accessory nerve, primarily a motor nerve, innervates the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles. Proximally, lesions can occur intracranially at the skull base or just outside the jugular foramen producing ipsilateral weakness of trapezius and sternocleidomastoid muscles; or distally, in the posterior neck triangle causing trapezius ...

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 1994
Spinal nerve stimulation has proven useful in determining the diagnosis and prognosis in a wide variety of injuries and diseases involving the peripheral and central nervous systems. This article presents techniques of electric and magnetic stimulation of spinal nerves, provides supporting normative data, and discusses the clinical conditions for which

Traumatic Spinal Accessory Nerve Palsy
Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery, 1998Spinal accessory nerve sections due to a purely traumatic origin are very rare. The authors report a case in which a total section of the spinal accessory nerve was observed after a glass-penetrating injury. The primary lesion was undiagnosed, and only late physical examination revealed a scapula alata with a deficiency in shoulder protrusion and ...

Spinal nerve sheath myxoma (neurothekeoma)
Pathology International, 2006Nerve sheath myxoma (NSM) is a rare, benign tumor of predominantly cutaneous location. They usually arise from small cutaneous nerves in the head, neck, and extremities, but exceptionally they arise from spinal nerve roots. Only three cases of intraspinal NSM have been reported. Herein is describe two additional cases of spinal NSM.

Spinal accessory nerve cavernous malformation
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2010We present the first reported case of a spinal accessory nerve cavernous malformation. A 54-year-old Caucasian male presented with a several-year history of progressive, vague bilateral upper and lower extremity paresthesias and pain. MRI of the spine revealed a heterogenously enhancing mass in the dorsal aspect of the spinal canal at the level of the ...
