final- blood supply Flashcards
1
Q
spinal cord blood supply
A
- outer rim- posterior spinal art
2. inner circle- anterior spinal art
2
Q
anterior spinal artery in spinal cord
A
- ventral horn cells.
- descending axial motor
- half of fasciculus gracilis and cuneatus
- anterior white commisure
3
Q
posterior spinal artery in spinal cord.
A
- half of fasiculus gracilis and cuneatus
- anterolateral system
- lateral corticospinal tract
4
Q
anterior spinal lower medulla
A
- pyramids
- decussation of pyramids
- spinal accesory nucleus
5
Q
veterbral art in lower medulla
A
- anterolateral system
- part of spinal trigeminal tract
- dorsal spinocerebellar pathway
6
Q
posterior spinal art in caudal medulla
A
- fasciculus cuneatus and gracilis
- external cuneate
- spinal trigeminal tract
7
Q
anterior spinal artery in middle medulla
A
- pyramids
- medial lemniscus
- decussation of medial lemniscus
8
Q
vertebral art in middle medulla
A
- spinal trigeminal tract
- anterolateral system
- nucleus ambiguus
- dorsal spinocerebellar pathway
9
Q
posterior spinal art in mid medulla
A
- fasciculus cuneatus and gracilis
2. external cuneate nucleus
10
Q
anterior spinal art in rostral medulla
A
- pyramids
- medial lemniscus
- hypoglossal nucleus- weakness on same side as damage, tongue will deviate towards damage
- MLF- produces central nystagmus in direction of gaze
11
Q
vertebral art in rostral medulla
A
- inferior olivary nucleus- diminished motor learning
12
Q
POSTERIOR INFERIOR CEREBELLAR art in rostral medulla aka- wallenburg syndrome
A
- nucleus ambiguus
- spinal trigeminal tract
- inferior cerebellar peduncle- limb ataxia and intention tremor in both UE and LE on same side as lesion
- anterolateral system- could have bilateral face loss
- solitary nucleus- loss of taste same side
- vestibular nuc- dizzy, vertigo, and central nystagmus- in direction of gaze.
- Descending axons from hypothalamus- same side pseudoptosis, miosis, inability to sweat, flushed face = Horners syndrome
13
Q
POSTERIOR INFERIOR CEREBELLAR art in rostral most medulla
A
- cocholear nucleus- hearing loss in same side, sensorineural loss- will not be able to hear tuning fork in Webers test
14
Q
paramedian and short circumferential of basilar art in the caudal pons
A
- corticospino corticobulbar- hypoglossal- tongue deviates towards damaged side.
- pontine fibers and middle cerebellar peduncle-
- facial nerve fibers
- abducens nerve fibers- paralysis of lateral rectus on the same side. eye drift medially
Damage to all called: millard-gubler syndrome
15
Q
anterior inferior cerebellar art in caudal pons
A
- facial motor nucleus
- abducens nucleus and paramedian pontine reticular formation- lateral locked gaze away from damage side. cannot be overcome with dolls head
