Robotic resection of mediastinal left vagus neurofibroma
Monaldi Archives for Chest Disease, 2022 Neurogenic tumors represent 10 to 34% of all mediastinal tumors and among them, neurofibroma originating from the vagus nerve are rare entities. We present a case of a neurofibroma with cystic degeneration originating from the left branch of the vagus ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.The covalent binding of dexamethasone to the surface of polyimide represents the electrically inert part of implantable intraneural devices. This ensures a sustained release of the drug for 9 weeks. In vitro and in vivo tests confirm the reduction of the foreign body reactions and the improved biocompatibility of dexamethasone functionalized polyimide.

Atrophy of the Vagus Nerve in Parkinson's Disease Revealed by High-Resolution Ultrasonography
Frontiers in Neurology, 2018 Background: The vagus nerve has been suggested to represent one major route of disease progression in Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, we examined whether patients with idiopathic PD exhibit an atrophy of the vagus nerve in comparison to age-matched ...

Ultrasonography of the Vagus Nerve in Parkinson's Disease
Frontiers in Neurology, 2018 Based on the topographic distribution of α-synuclein-enriched Lewy bodies, it has been hypothesized that Parkinson's disease may start in the gastrointestinal tract and gain access to the central nervous system via the vagus nerve.
