What does Large diffuse annular disc bulge contacting the traversing nerve root in the lateral recesses bilaterally?
One of the soft, cushiony discs that separates each bone in your backbone from its neighbor has begun to bulge and put pressure on two of the nerves branching out from the spinal cord.
Neural foramina are patent bilaterally What is meant by patent bilaterally?
Foramina are openings. Neural foramina patent bilaterally just means that the openings in the spine are open, and allow the nerves to pass through normally...
What is formed by the spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level of L4 to S4?
Spinal nerves exiting the spinal canal between L4 and S4 collectively make up the sacral plexus.
Spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level of L4 to S4?
Lumbar plexus
Why is the sponge considered the simplest animal?
because it is not bilaterally simmetrical.
What is patent neural foramina?
Foramina are openings. Neural foramina patent bilaterally just means that the openings in the spine are open, and allow the nerves to pass through normally...
What is the function of spinal nerves- afferent?
They carry nerve impulses from your sensory organs, like your eyes, to your brain, or your central nervous system (CNS). When your eyes see something shiny on the ground, your afferent nerves tell your brain what your eyes see. In contrast, efferent nerves carry nerve impulses from your brain to parts of your body. So, when you see something shiny on the ground, your brain tells you to pick it up and look at it. Efferent = "Exiting", the nerves impulses are exiting your brain. Afferent = the opposite
What is spondylotic ridging with foraminal narrowing bilaterally at c6 -7?
Spondylotic ridging found on MRI is when there is calcification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, which runs behind the bodies of vertebrae caudal to cephlad. Neural foramina are the openings in the spinal column where the spinal nerves exit to the periphery.
What does mild posterior disc bulge at T11-12 without neural structure compromise mean?
It means the disc bulge is not big enough to press on the spinal canal. It could also mean the nerves exiting theforamina are not beingencroachedupon. Posterior means behind.
What does bilateral innervation of cranial nerves mean?
Cranial nerves that have a motor function tend to be bilaterally innervated. In other words, the right accessory nerve (XI) receives input from both the right and the left motor cortex. The same goes for the left accessory nerve.This is a handy advantage in strokes, since upper motor neurone lesions must therefore be bilateral in order to cause a deficit.The one major exception to this rule is the facial nerve (VII). Only the forehead muscles are bilaterally innervated, so even a unilateral upper motor neurone lesion can cause mouth drooping, etc. However, this can still often be differentiated from a lower motor neurone lesion, which will not spare the forehead.
Multilevel disc space narrowing?
That most probably means that pain tingling or discomfort being experienced is the result of the jell that holds the vertebrae apart and cushions them against shock is wearing away causing pressure to be put on nerves exiting the spinal chord between them.
Are spinal nerves are sensory nerves?
Some are sensory nerves, some are motor nerves
