Download or read book Facial Nerve and its disorders written by Prof. Dr Balasubramanian Thiagarajan and published by Otolaryngology online. This book was released on with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facial musculature plays an important role in mastication, facial expression, emotions, and speech. Facial musculature is supplied by the facial nerve. Disorders affecting facial nerve would cause facial paralysis causing asymmetry of the face due to paralysis of muscles of the face. This manuscript discusses clinical anatomy of facial nerve, pathologies affecting this nerve, its clinical manifestations and various management modalities available in managing these conditions. This book has been authored from the perspective of otolaryngologist. Otolaryngologists commonly encounter facial nerve lesions since this nerve courses through the temporal bone. The intratympanic portion of facial nerve comes under the domain of otolaryngologist. Lesions of facial nerve in this book has been arranged under two headings: 1. Non neoplastic disorders of the facial nerve 2. Neoplastic disorders of the facial It should be pointed out facial nerve has excellent regenerative capacity and it is never late to attempt decompression / trying out various anastomotic techniques in managing patients with facial nerve paralysis. Rehabilitation process in facial nerve paralysis should focus on managing and protecting the eyes of the patient. In facial paralysis patients are unable to close their eyelids due to paralysis of the muscles. Various rehabilitation procedures have been developed to manage these patients. Imaging of facial nerve has undergone tremendous advancement in recent times. A chapter on imaging of facial nerve has also been added to this manuscript to make it complete.

Download or read book Neuroanatomy Draw It to Know It written by Adam Fisch MD and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-06-03 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If you can't draw it, you don't know it:" that was the rule of the late neuroanatomist William DeMyer, MD. Yet books do not encourage us to draw and redraw neuroanatomy. Neuroanatomy: Draw It to Know It teaches neuroanatomy through step-by-step instruction of how to draw neuroanatomical pathways and structures. Its instructive language is highly engaging. Users draw neuroanatomical structures and pathways in several steps so they are remembered and use mental and physical mnemonics to demonstrate difficult anatomical rotations and directional pathways. Anatomical pictures and radiographic images accompany the diagrams to clarify spatially challenging features; relevant synonyms are listed to avoid inter-text confusion; inconsistencies in the neuroanatomy literature are highlighted to mitigate frustration; and historical and current accounts of neuroanatomical systems are presented for perspective. Many neuroanatomy textbooks are great references, but fail to provide a working knowledge of neuroanatomy, and many neuroanatomy handbooks provide bedside pearls, but are too concise to be fully satisfactory. This instructional workbook teaches a comprehensive, but practical approach to neuroanatomy; it includes references where necessary but steers users toward key clinical features. Most importantly, Neuroanatomy: Draw It to Know It instructs the reader to draw and redraw the anatomy and teaches an active approach to learning.

Download or read book The Cranial Nerves written by M. Samii and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No special field of surgery dealing with the cranial nerves exists today. This is not surprising in view of the characteristics of this group of morphologically and topo graphically heterogenous nerves. Morphologically we must differentiate between central nerves (I, II and VIII) and the so-called peripheral nerves (nn. III to VII and IX to XII), in which post-lesion rgeneration is quite different. Anatomo-topographi cally we must consider an intracranial and an extracranial part of each cranial nerve. For practical reasons at operation, further subdivisions of the intracranial course of cranial nerves are to be distinguished in the anterior, middle and posterior cranial fossae as well as within the petrous bone. This underscores the extensive tasks awaiting surgeons operating in the ventral part of the brain and facial skull as well as in the more dorsal part of the skull and neck. This very wide field cannot be covered by a single surgical discipline alone. In our opinion, considerable progress has been made in surgery of the cranial nerves only in recent years. This may be explained by the increased mastery of microsurgical techniques by all surgeons in terested in the surgery of the base of the skull as well as with the initiation of more interdisciplinary consultation and jointly performed operations. Possibilities of fu ture development can be discerned in the text. The base of the skull separating the extra-and intracranial part of cranial nerves should not be a barrier but a connect ing link.
Download or read book Surgical Disorders of the Peripheral Nerves written by Rolfe Birch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-01-21 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the highly praised first edition of Surgical Disorders of the Peripheral Nerves was published in 1998, greater understanding of the the molecular and cellular events which underlie the response of nerves to injury, regeneration and neuropathic pain has been achieved. This second edition has been fully updated in line with new clinical knowledge, and also incorporates the extensive study of thousands of surgical case studies spanning repairs of the supraclavicular plexus in the adult, the birth lesion of the brachial plexus,compound nerve injury and iatrogenous injury. Beginning with the fundamentals of the anatomy and function of the peripheral nervous system, and working its way through various types of injury, operative methods, the regeneration and recovery of nerves, surgical reconstruction, pain, and rehabilitation, this eloquently written work provides the reader with the solid understanding required to successfully perform surgery on the peripheral nervous system. Dr Shelagh Smith, joined by Dr Ravi Knight, has rewritten the chapter Electrodiagnosis. Professor Tara Renton has written a new chapter on injuries to the trigeminal nerve in maxilla-facial and dental work. The drawings, by Mr Philip Wilson, are new. Most of the 700 illustrations are also new. This thorough and authoritative look at the surgical treatment of the peripheral nerves is fully illustrated throughout with exquisite line diagrams and clear, instructive photographs.
