Spinal Meninges FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Pia mater Arachnoid mater Dura mater FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Spaces around the cord The epidural space exits as a potential space, between the dura and the periosteum of vertebral canal. Contains internal vertebral venous plexus and used for injection of anesthesthetic agents. - bagian epiduralaya di FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Lumbar Puncture The spinal cord ends at the intervertebral disc between L1 and L2 in adult, so the lower part of the vertebral canal does not contain the spinal cord. Hollow needles can be safely inserted into the subarachnoid space to remove CSF for diagnostic procedures (Lumbar Puncture at L3-L4 in adult). FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Lumbar puncture Anterior Median Fissure and Posterior Median Sulcus FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN ❖ Anterior median fissure is the groove along the anterior midline of the spinal cord that incompletely divides it into symmetrical halves. ❖ Posterior median sulcus lies in the posterior midline of the spinal cord. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Spinal segment The part of the spinal cord that gives rise to a pair of spinal nerves is called a “spinal segment.” There are 31 spinal segments. FAKULTAS PNS (Peripheral Nervous System) KEDOKTERAN cranial nerves · PNS Composed of a spinal nerves CNS ○ Cranial nerves (12 pairs) Ganglion - ○ Spinal nerves (31 pairs) ○ Ganglions PNS FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Spinal nerve (peripheral nerve) Is formed by the union of dorsal and ventral roots. Dorsal root There are 31 pairs of spinal nerve. cervical 8 : Spinal Cervical – 8 12 nerve Thorncal : Thoracic – 12 Lumbar : 5 Lumbar – 5 Ventral sacral = 5 Sacral – 5 root : Coccygeal – 1 colcygeal FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Spinal nerve (peripheral nerve) It is formed by the union of ventral (motor) and dorsal (sensory) roots. There is an enlargement on the dorsal root and It is known as dorsal root ganglion. The 2 roots unite to form a spinal nerve (mixed). After a course of a few mm, the spinal nerve divides into a ventral and dorsal rami. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Spinal nerve (peripheral nerve) The dorsal ramus passes backwards and divides into medial and lateral branches and supply the muscles of the back and skin covering them. The ventral ramus supplies the Losuplai muscles and skin of the anterior 3/4 dinding 3/4 of the body wall. fubuh Spinal nerves and their branches also carry efferent fibres of the nerms-defferent fibres - sympathetic sympathetic nervous system. spinal FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Functional components in spinal nerves General Somatic Afferent (GSA) – General sensation from the body wall General Visceral Afferent (GVA) - General sensation from viscera General Somatic Efferent (GSE) – Motor supply to the skeletal muscle of the body wall General Visceral Efferent (GVE) - Motor supply to the smooth muscle of viscera (sensor y) (GSA) (GVA) (GVE) (GSE) FAKULTAS Functional components in spinal nerves ventual KEDOKTERAN Dorsal-POSA "OSE DEVA Root Root LEVE Dorsal root contains General Somatic Afferent (GSA) and General Visceral Afferent (GVA). Ventral root contains (GSA) General Somatic Efferent (GVA) (GSE) and General (GVE) Visceral Efferent (GVE). (GSE) Spinal nerve contains all four components, GSA, GVA, GSE and GVE. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Levels (regions) of the spinal cord and differences FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Ligamentum denticulatum ↳ untun menstabilian posisi spinal cord cord Melindungi spinal * The spinal cord is piamater & a letanya antara suspended in the dural sac dura mater by pairs of tooth-like ligaments made up of pia mater called “Denticulate ligaments”. Its function is to stabilizes the spinal cord in position. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Ligamentum denticulatum C There are 21 pairs of. 21 penghusury these ligaments, each arising from the side of the spinal cord midway between the dorsal and ventral nerve roots. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Blood supply of the spinal cord It is supplied by 3 longitudinal vessels. One anterior spinal artery and two posterior spinal arteries. spinal (1) 29 anterior. suplai spinal cord A u. posterio - spinal (2) FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Anterior Spinal Artery Arises from vertebral arteries.

They are branches of the deep cervical, intercostals and - divical intercostal lumbar arteries. A. radicular a lumbar FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN The Great Radicular Artery (Artery of Adamkiewicz) arteri Adamhiewicz : diatas One large and important artery arises vertebral & from the aorta in the lower thoracic or cumbar upper lumbar vertebral levels known as dibawan the great anterior medullary artery of thorucal Adamkiewicz. It is unilateral and in majority of persons enters the spinal cord from the left side. It is the major source of blood to the lower 2/3 of the spinal cord. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Clinical relevance ❖ Occlusion of an anterior spinal artery often produces ischaemia of the anterior 2/3 of the cord causing flaccid paralysis and loss of pain and temperature sensation. ❖ Damage to the great radicular artery may seriously affect the functions of the lower part of spinal cord and cause muscular weakness and paralysis. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Venous drainage The veins of the spinal cord are distributed similar to the arteries. These veins communicate with each other and are drained via radicular veins, then to intervertebral veins, vertebral veins, ascending lumbar veins, and to the azygos system. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Tracts in the spinal cord The white matter of the cord consists of ascending and descending tracts (nerve fibers) embedded in neuroglia. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Major Sensory or Ascending Tracts Fasiculus Fasiculus cuneatus gracilis Posterior spinocerebellar tract Anterior spinocerebellar tract Lateral spinothalamic tract Anterior spinothalamic tract Major Sensory or Ascending Tracts Name Location Function Fasciculus gracilis Posterior Column Conscious proprioception, vibration & two-point discrimination Fasciculus Cuneatus Posterior Same as FG Column Lateral Spinothalamic Lateral Pain and thermal sensations Column Anterior Anterior Pressure and Crude touch Spinothalamic Column sensations Posterior and Lateral Unconscious proprioceptive Anterior Column information.

Important levels Spinal segment Vertebral level (spines) Cervical 1-8 Foramen magnum to C6 (add 1 to the spine) Thoracic 1-6 C6 –T4 (add 2 to the spine) Thoracic 7 –12 T4-T9 (add 3 to the spine) Lumbar and sacral T10 - L1 FAKULTAS Syringomyelia KEDOKTERAN (dilatation of central canal) Usually beginning in the cervical region. It erodes the ventral white commissure which contains decussating spinothalamic fibers. So, there will be bilateral loss of pain and temperature in the affected region. Touch and proprioception are not affected. FAKULTAS Brown Sequard Syndrome KEDOKTERAN (Hemisection of the spinal cord) Both ascending and descending tracts are involved. Ventral and dorsal horns are also involved. FAKULTAS KEDOKTERAN Upper motor neuron & Lower motor UMN neuron Upper motor neurons Motor neurons in the brain and their axons (called corticospinal and corticobulbar tracts). Lower motor neurons Motor neurons in anterior horn of the UMN spinal cord and their axons.

(special afferent)- Functions in the special sense of smell or olfaction. The olfactory system consists of the ○ olfactory epithelium, bulbs and tracts along with ○ olfactory areas of the brain collectively known as the rhinencephalon. The Nasal Cavity, Olfactory Epithelium & Olfactory Nerves The olfactory chemoreceptors are located on the cilia of bipolar neurons. Rhinecephalon (Smell Brain) Primary (lateral) olfactory area-consists of the cortex of the uncus and the anterior part of the hippocampal gyrus-most fibers project to this area Area 28 Medial olfactory area - located in the septal region of the medial surface of the frontal lobe. Via its connections with the limbic system, this area is thought to mediate the emotional response to odors. Hippocampus ,uncus OPTIC NERVE:2nd Cranial Nerve The optic nerve has only a special sensory component. Special sensory conveys visual information from the retina (special afferent). The optic nerve travels postero-medially from the eye to exit the orbit via optic canal. It enters middle cranial fossa where it joins other optic nerve to form optic chiasma where nasal-side fibres cross, temporal fibres do not. Optic tract fibres synapse at lateral geniculate body of thalamus where new neurons begin as optic radiation to travel to the visual cortex in area 17 of the occipital lobe. The Neuronal Chains In Visual Pathway 1st neurone =Photoreceptor cells (rods & cones of retina) 2nd neurone=Bipolar cells (R) 3rd neurone=Ganglion cells -R Afferent fibres =Optic nerve-Optic chiasma--Optic tract 4th neurone=lateral geniculate body (Thalamus)-optic radiations to Striae (calcarine) cortex visual area in occipital lobes area 17 Normal Visual Field and Visual field defects Normal visual field Bitemporal hemianopia Binasal hemianopia Left homonymous hemianopia Right homonymous hemianopia Damage to Retina & Optic Nerve Damage to the retina results in a loss of input from the affected portion of the retina leading to a monocular field deficit. Damage to the optic nerve will also result in a monocular visual defect due to loss of input from the ipsilateral eye. The patient will complain of blindness in that eye. Lesion of the optic chiasma ⚫ Damage to the medial aspect of the optic chiasma, (B) as is often seen with a pituitary gland tumor, may compromise the decussating fibers from both nasal hemiretinas. The loss of peripheral vision in both eyes is called bitemporal hemianopia. ⚫ Defects are described with reference to the visual fields and not to the retina Lesion of Optic tract& Optic radiation / Visual Cortex Left homonymous hemianopia (for the lesion on the right tract) Visual Field Defects-Summary lesion at the left optic radiation gives a right homonymous. Can be caused by stroke, Space occupying lesions Defect Location Loss of vision in one eye Ipsilateral Optic Nerve Bitemporal Hemianopia Optic chiasma Binasal hemianopia Optic chiasma Left homonymous hemianopia Right optic tract / radiation Right homonymous hemianopia Left optic tract / radiation 3rd ,4th & 6th,Cranial Nerves & Extraocular Muscles-RL6SO4R3 THE OCULOMOTOR NERVE: The Third 3rd Cranial Nerve 1. somatic motor component of CN III plays a major role in controlling the muscles responsible for the precise movement of the eyes for visual tracking or fixation on an object. 2. visceral motor component is involved in the pupillary light and accommodation reflexes. Origin of 3rd Cranial Nerve oculomotor nucleus (somatic motor component) ○ located in the rostral midbrain at the level of the superior colliculus ventral to aqueduct near the midline Edinger-Westphal nucleus Parasympathetic component (visceral motor ) Fibers emerge in the interpeduncular fossa at the junction of the midbrain and pons Edinger-Westphal Nucleus ; Pretectal area & Pupillary reflexes The CN III is involved in the pupillary light and accommodation reflexes. Fibers from EW form the Efferent pathway of pupillary reflex as they form parasympathetic innervation of the constrictor pupillae and ciliary muscles of the eye. The optic nerve is the afferent pathway. The Argyll-Robinson Pupil: Loss of light reflex with preservation of accommodation reflex due to neurosyphilis or tumors near posterior part of 3rd ventricle (pretectal area) Intracranial course of 3rd Cranial nerve The 3rd nerve course ventrally through the midbrain, interpeduncular fossa, runs along the lateral wall of the cavernous sinus just superior to the trochlear nerve and enters the orbit via the superior orbital fissure. Supplies the extraocular muscles EXCEPT superior oblique & lateral rectus 3rd Cranial Nerve Palsy Causes: a lesion of cranial nerve nuclei in mid brain or by compression of peripheral course by aneurysm or tumour or cavernous sinus thrombosis Signs and symptoms: 1. Drooping of eyelids (ptosis) The eyelid is held up by the levator palpebrae superioris muscle, which is innervated by the oculomotor nerve). 2. Dilatation of pupil that is unresponsive to light and accomodation (provides parasympathetic innervation for the sphincter pupillae muscle of the iris and for the ciliary muscle of accommodation) 3. Inability of the eyes to move downwards, upwards and inwards (adduction) 4. Diplopia 3rd,4th,6th nerves may be injured together within the cavernous sinus or at the entrance into the orbit at the superior orbital fissure Trochlear Nerve;4th Cranial Nerve Overview The trochlear nerve has only a somatic motor component: (general somatic efferent) Somatic motor innervates the superior oblique muscle of the CONTRALATERAL orbit. Origin and central course originate from the trochlear nucleus located in the tegmentum of the midbrain at the level of the inferior colliculus TROCHLEAR NERVE (4th Cranial Nerve) Unique Features: The trochlear nerve has several features that make it unique from the other cranial nerves: IT Is the only nerve to exit from the dorsal surface of the brain. Is the only nerve in which all the lower motor neuron fibres decussate.(supplies contralateral muscle) Has the longest intracranial course.(likely to be involved in head trauma) Has the smallest number of axons. Trochlear Nerve Palsy ○ Due to paralysis of Superior Oblique the eye cannot turn inward and downward resulting in vertical diplopia. (the images were situated on top of each other vertically ). ○ This is often reported as difficulty in descending stairs. ○ Contralateral head tilt. The person tends subconciously to tilt the head thereby using eye muscles that are unaffected by the palsy. This position can eliminate the double vision. A child with left trochlear nerve palsy tilts her head to the right Tilting to the left makes the nerve palsy more obvious THE ABDUCENT NERVE: 6th Cranial nerve It has only a somatic motor (general somatic efferent) component. innervates the lateral rectus muscle of the ipsilateral orbit. The lateral rectus muscle is responsible for lateral gaze (its contraction causes the eye to be abducted) Origin of Abducent Nerve It originate from the abducens nucleus ○ located in the caudal pons at the level of the facial colliculus. ○ just ventral to the fourth ventricle near the midline. Axons of CN VII (facial nerve) loop around the abducens nucleus and give rise to a bulge in the floor of the fourth ventricle - the facial colliculus. Fibers of 6th nerve travel ventrally to exit the brainstem at the pontomedullary junction. TS of Lower Part of the Pons. Intracranial course and final innervation The abducens nerve travels along the medial wall of the cavernous sinus with CN III, IV, and V. enters the orbit through the superior orbital fissure. CN VI passes through the tendinous ring of the extraocular muscles and innervates the lateral rectus muscle Lesion of Abducens nerve Lower motor neuron (LMN) lesion Damage to the abducens nucleus or its axons results in weakness or paralysis of the ipsilateral lateral rectus muscle. Eye cannot look outwards This is indicated by: Medially directed eye on the affected side and there will be horizontal diplopia.

Syringobulbia(central cavitation of the medulla caudal to the 4th ventricle-destruction of trigeminothalamic fibers) leads to selective loss of pain & temperature sensibility in the face. Inability to contract muscles of mastication, deviation of mandible to side of lesion when mouth is opened The jaw jerk is one of the deep tendon or stretch reflexes. When it is normal, tapping the mandible produces a brisk contraction. When abnormal, with upper motor neuron lesions, there is a hyperactive or repeating reflex (clonus). With nuclear or infranuclear lesions, the reflex is absent.
