VAGAL NERVE STIMULATOR POCKET INFECTIONS

The Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2004
Vagal nerve stimulator pocket infections are uncommon but can cause considerable morbidity. We describe 3 children from our institution and 8 others previously reported with infection after vagal nerve stimulator implantation for seizure control. Infection was suppressed but recurred despite appropriate antimicrobial therapy when the device remained in

Kissing neurinomas of the vestibular and vagal nerves

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 1996
We report the clinical and neuroimaging features of a patient with double schwannomas originating from the vagal and vestibular nerves. Such an association seemed unique, and its surgical implications are discussed.

Vagal Nerve Stimulation for Status epilepticus

Pediatric Neurosurgery, 2001
Refractory generalized convulsive status epilepticus in a 13-year-old boy was halted by left vagal nerve stimulation. Over the next 1.5 years, seizures have continued at a rate and severity which is significantly better than it had been in the year before insertion of the stimulator.

Vagal nerve and the gastric mucosal defense

Journal of Physiology-Paris, 1993
An essential role for an intact vagal nerve has been proven in the development of gastric mucosal cyto- and general protection. On the other hand, chemically-induced (ethanol, HCl, indomethacin) gastric mucosal damage is enhanced after acute surgical vagotomy.

Glomus Vagale: Paraganglioma of The Vagus Nerve

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2002
A 69-year-old woman presented with an asymptomatic left neck mass of several years duration. Ultrasonography revealed an extremely vascular tumor near the carotid artery bifurcation measuring 3.5 4.5 cm. A CT scan (A) confirmed the location and vascularity of the tumor and showed no evidence of bilaterality or multicentricity.

Visceral Nerves: Vagal and Sympathetic Innervation

Journal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, 2008
The autonomic nervous system is the primary neural mediator of physiological responses to internal and external stimuli. It is composed of 2 branches: the sympathetic nervous system, which mediates catabolic responses, and the parasympathetic nervous system, composed of the vagus nerve, which regulates anabolic responses.
