Aberrant Regeneration

Aberrant regeneration of Oculomotor nerve results in the abnormal contraction of the muscles. It occurs because of failure to recover completely after injury to the oculomotor nerve. [1] Here we present a case who presented to us with the signs and symptoms of Aberrant Regeneration of Oculomotor Nerve.

Neurosurgical Intervention

✓Aberrant regeneration of cranial nerve III, otherwise known as oculomotor synkinesis, is an uncommon but well-described phenomenon most frequently resulting from trauma, tumors, and aneurysms. Its appearance usually follows an oculomotor palsy, but it can also occur primarily without any preceding nerve dysfunction. It is vital that neurosurgeons recognize this disorder because it may be the only sign of an underlying cavernous tumor or PCoA aneurysm. The tumor most often implicated is a cavernous or parasellar meningioma, but any tumor that causes compression or disruption along the course of the oculomotor nerve may cause primary or secondary misdirection. The most common clinical signs of oculomotor synkinesis consist of elevation of the upper eyelid on attempted downward gaze or adduction, adduction of the eye on attempted upward or downward gaze, and constriction of the pupil on attempted adduction. The authors present the largest series of patients with oculomotor synkinesis, including those in whom it developed after neurosurgical intervention, to illustrate various presentations. In addition, the various mechanisms that contribute to synkinesis are reviewed. Last, the treatment strategies for both oculomotor palsies and synkinesis are discussed.

Abstract We report a patient who underwent anastomosis of the left oculomotor nerve, which had been inadvertently and bluntly severed during the resection of a left parasellar chromophobe pituitary adenoma. Neural regeneration was confirmed by the reappearance of voluntary adduction of the eyeball, clinical signs of aberrant regeneration, and the appearance of an action potential on electromyography of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle 1 year after end-to-end anastomosis of the nerve.

✓ Aberrant regeneration of the oculomotor nerve usually follows injury to the nerve by posterior communicating artery aneurysms or trauma. A case of idiopathic third nerve palsy with pupillary involvement occurred in an otherwise healthy 38-year-old man. Follow-up examination 32 months later showed evidence of oculomotor function with aberrant regeneration.

Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy

AbstractTuberculosis being a global pandemic causes an array of neurological presentations ranging from tuberculoma, meningitis, radiculomyelitis, brain abscess, and so on.Association of Guillain-Barre syndrome with tuberculosis has been reported five to six times in the past. The authors report a case of a young female with tubercular meningitis on antitubercular therapy and steroids who went on to develop acute areflexic quadriparesis and diagnosed as a case of acute motor sensory axonal neuropathy variety of acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) who responded positively to plasmapheresis. The authors present the first case of an association between tubercular meningitis and subsequent development of AIDP.
