Correlation of CT Cerebral Vascular Territories with Function: 3. Middle Cerebral Artery
161 Correlation of CT Cerebral Vascular Territories with Function: 3. Middle Cerebral Artery Stephen A. Berman 1 Schematic displays are presented of the cerebral territories supplied by branches of L. Anne Hayman2 the middle cerebral artery as they would appear on axial and coronal computed Vincent C. Hinck 1 tomographic (CT) scan sections. Companion diagrams of regional cortical function and a discussion of the fiber tracts are provided to simplify correlation of clinical deficits with coronal and axial CT abnormalities. This report is the third in a series designed to correlate cerebral vascular territories and functional anatomy in a form directly applicable to computed tomog raphy (CT). The illustrations are intended to simplify analysis of CT images in terms of clinical signs and symptoms and vascular territories in everyday practice. The anterior and posterior cerebral arteries have been described [1 , 2] . This report deals with the middle cerebral arterial territory. Knowledge of cerebral vascular territories can help in differentiating between infarction and other pathologic processes. For example, if the position and extent of a lesion and the usual position and extent of a vascular territory are incongruous, infarction should receive relatively low diagnostic priority and vice versa. Knowledge of vascular territories can also facilitate correct interpretation of cerebral angio grams by pinpointing specific vessels for particularly close attention. Knowledge of functional neuroanatomy applied to a patient's clinical findings can improve detection of subtle lesions by pinpointing specific areas for special attention on CT and specific vessels for attention on angiograms. Discussion The largest area of the brain that is normally supplied by the vessel(s) of the middle cerebral territory is indicated in figures 1 and 2. -

Abadie's Sign Abadie's Sign Is the Absence Or Diminution of Pain Sensation When Exerting Deep Pressure on the Achilles Tendo
A.qxd 9/29/05 04:02 PM Page 1 A Abadie’s Sign Abadie’s sign is the absence or diminution of pain sensation when exerting deep pressure on the Achilles tendon by squeezing. This is a frequent finding in the tabes dorsalis variant of neurosyphilis (i.e., with dorsal column disease). Cross References Argyll Robertson pupil Abdominal Paradox - see PARADOXICAL BREATHING Abdominal Reflexes Both superficial and deep abdominal reflexes are described, of which the superficial (cutaneous) reflexes are the more commonly tested in clinical practice. A wooden stick or pin is used to scratch the abdomi- nal wall, from the flank to the midline, parallel to the line of the der- matomal strips, in upper (supraumbilical), middle (umbilical), and lower (infraumbilical) areas. The maneuver is best performed at the end of expiration when the abdominal muscles are relaxed, since the reflexes may be lost with muscle tensing; to avoid this, patients should lie supine with their arms by their sides. Superficial abdominal reflexes are lost in a number of circum- stances: normal old age obesity after abdominal surgery after multiple pregnancies in acute abdominal disorders (Rosenbach’s sign). However, absence of all superficial abdominal reflexes may be of localizing value for corticospinal pathway damage (upper motor neu- rone lesions) above T6. Lesions at or below T10 lead to selective loss of the lower reflexes with the upper and middle reflexes intact, in which case Beevor’s sign may also be present. All abdominal reflexes are preserved with lesions below T12. Abdominal reflexes are said to be lost early in multiple sclerosis, but late in motor neurone disease, an observation of possible clinical use, particularly when differentiating the primary lateral sclerosis vari- ant of motor neurone disease from multiple sclerosis. -

26 Aphasia, Memory Loss, Hemispatial Neglect, Frontal Syndromes and Other Cerebral Disorders - - 8/4/17 12:21 PM )
1 Aphasia, Memory Loss, 26 Hemispatial Neglect, Frontal Syndromes and Other Cerebral Disorders M.-Marsel Mesulam CHAPTER The cerebral cortex of the human brain contains ~20 billion neurons spread over an area of 2.5 m2. The primary sensory and motor areas constitute 10% of the cerebral cortex. The rest is subsumed by modality- 26 selective, heteromodal, paralimbic, and limbic areas collectively known as the association cortex (Fig. 26-1). The association cortex mediates the Aphasia, Memory Hemispatial Neglect, Frontal Syndromes and Other Cerebral Disorders Loss, integrative processes that subserve cognition, emotion, and comport- ment. A systematic testing of these mental functions is necessary for the effective clinical assessment of the association cortex and its dis- eases. According to current thinking, there are no centers for “hearing words,” “perceiving space,” or “storing memories.” Cognitive and behavioral functions (domains) are coordinated by intersecting large-s- cale neural networks that contain interconnected cortical and subcortical components. Five anatomically defined large-scale networks are most relevant to clinical practice: (1) a perisylvian network for language, (2) a parietofrontal network for spatial orientation, (3) an occipitotemporal network for face and object recognition, (4) a limbic network for explicit episodic memory, and (5) a prefrontal network for the executive con- trol of cognition and comportment. Investigations based on functional imaging have also identified a default mode network, which becomes activated when the person is not engaged in a specific task requiring attention to external events. The clinical consequences of damage to this network are not yet fully defined. THE LEFT PERISYLVIAN NETWORK FOR LANGUAGE AND APHASIAS The production and comprehension of words and sentences is depen- FIGURE 26-1 Lateral (top) and medial (bottom) views of the cerebral dent on the integrity of a distributed network located along the peri- hemispheres. -
Clinical Neuroanatomy Brain & Eyes
Clinical Neuroanatomy Part I: Brain & Eyes Introduction Aliza Ben-Zacharia, DNP, ANP, MSCN The Corinne Goldsmith Dickinson Center for Multiple Sclerosis The Icahn School of Medicine Mount Sinai Medical Center Clinical Neuroanatomy Brain & Eyes Objectives •Identify the anatomical structures of the central nervous system in the Cerebral Hemispheres and structures involved in CNS function •Develop a rational, systematic approach to localization in clinical neurology •Recognize those areas of the Brain and Eyes involved in the development of common symptoms of multiple sclerosis Localization of Symptoms Cognitive loss Emotional disinhibition Tremor Ataxia Diplopia Vertigo Dysarthria Sensory symptoms L’Hermitte’s phenomenon Bladder Proprioception dysfunction Adapted from Miller AE. In: Cook SD, ed. Handbook of Multiple Sclerosis. New York, NY: Taylor & Francis Group: 2001:213-232. Localization Tips • The neurological approach to localization within the nervous system is: – Take note of all symptoms and signs – For each, consider what system(s) or pathway(s) is(are) implicated – For each, decide on the potential location a lesion could be & the side of the lesion; focal vs. multifocal – Adding up this analysis for each S/S, we then ask "Where in the nervous system can each of these localizations overlap?" The answer is the location of the current problem! One lesion vs. 2 or more lesions! Localization in Neurology • The principal of "garbage in-garbage out" does apply: if you fail to identify the clinical signs correctly, then you will be unable
