Q

the spinal nerve root derivative of the lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh?

A

L2 - L3

21
Q

the nerve root derivative of the femoral nerve is?

A

L2-3-4

22
Q

the nerve root derivative of the obturator nerve is?

A

L2 and L4

23
Q

the obturator nerve is formed in which muscle?

A

the psoas

24
Q

the obturator nerve emerges from which muscle to cross the ala of the sacrum to to pass behind which vessels?

A

the psoas, the iliac vessels.

25
Q

when the obturator nerve comes out of the obturator foramen which muscle does it straddle as it splits into anterior and posterior?

A

adductor brevis

26
Q

V1 V2 and V 3 emerg out of which foramen in the skull?

A 
V1= superior orbital fissure
V2= foramen rotundum 
v3= foramen ovale
27
Q

the middle minelgeal artery enters th skull through which foramen

A

foramen spinosum

28
Q

where is the jugular foramen located?

A

in the junction of the occipital bone and the petrosus part of temporal bone

29
Q

the 3 cranial nerves which pass through the jugulr foramen?

A

9 , 10 ad 11

glosso[haryngeal, vagus and accessory.

30
Q

what is closely related either side of the third ventricle?

A

the thalamus

31
Q

at birth the conus medallarus is at which vertebral level? and by what age has it reached L1L2?

A

born ar L3 and at 20 years of age reaches L1 L2

32
Q

the central canal is lined with what cells?

A

eyendyma

33
Q

what coms out of the lateral horn in the spinal colulm ?

A

the preganglionic sympathetic cell bodies , axons pass out of the anterior nerve root and enter the spinal nerves from T1 - L2 which when they leave int he white rami communicantes pass into the sympathetic trunk.
A similar group of cell bodies exist in the sacral segments 2-4 to form the pelvic splanchnic nerves

34
Q

the gracile and cuneate tracts are located in which part of the spinal cord?

A

in the posterior white column, lies between the posterior mediam septum and the posterior grey horn. COmpletely occupied by tracts of the same name.

35
Q

the gracile and cuneate tracts are the pathway for what?

A

touch and associated sensations.

36
Q

the lateral white column contains which tract?

A

the lateral corticostinal tract

37
Q

what tract can be found anterior laterally in the spinal cord?

A

spino thalamic tract

38
Q

what is the role fo the spinothalamic pathway?

A

nociception and thermal perception

39
Q

the blood supply to the spinal cord is from which arteries anterior and posteriorly?

A

anteriorly : anterior spinal artery, lies on the anterior medial fissure. formed at the foramen magnum by the union of the anterior spinal brach from the vertebral artery
posterior: the posterior spinal artery on each side arrises from the posterior inferior cerebellar atery (from vertebral) or vertebral artery in the foramen magnum , usualy double forming longditudinal trunks which run through and behind the posterior nerve rootlets,
the radicular arteries : anastomotic vessels.

40
Q

if there is complete transection of the spinal cord what kind of injury will show?

A

loss of power and sensation below the level of the injured segment.

41
Q

at what level of legion in the spinal cord is the cough reflex lost?

A

T10 and above due to the abdominal and lower intercostal paralysis.

42
Q

in hemisection of the spinal cord what symptoms would show?

A

paralysis and loss of touch and kinasthetic sense below the level of the lesion onthe same side (lateral corticospinal tract and posterior column disruption
loss of pain and temperature on the contralateral side because of interruption fo the crossed anterior lateral (spinothalamic tract)

43
Q

what commonly causes the central cord syndrome?

A

crush injury (without transection) following sudden hyperentension of the c spine

44
Q

what symptoms can be expected in a central cord syndrome. ?

A

flaccid paralysis and loss of pain and temperature sensation in the upper limbs (due to anterior horn damage and interruption of the more deeply placed cervical fibres of the anterior lateral tracts.

45
Q

in occlusion of the anterior spinal artery which nervous function remains and which is lost?

A

the posterior column remains intact so touch sensation remains in tact. but most of the rest of the cord loses all motor and sensory functions, except the sacral sparing.

46
Q

the pelvic splanchnic nerves run from the cell bodies in the lateral horn of which sacral segments?

A

S S2 -3 and 4
