Anatomic Study and Clinical Application of C7 Nerve Transfer Surgery via the Anterior Vertebral Approach for Central Upper Limb Spastic Paralysis.
J Craniofac Surg
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital affiliated Yangzhou University.
Objective: To explore the anatomic characteristics of C7 nerve localization, course, and length during cross-transfer surgery of the C7 nerve through the anterior vertebral approach and investigate the feasibility, safety, and clinical efficacy of C7 nerve transfer surgery through the anterior vertebral approach for the treatment of central upper limb spastic paralysis.
Methods: Four fresh-frozen adult head and neck samples were selected. C7 nerve transfer surgery was simulated through the anterior vertebral approach.

Purpose: Cobb's collar, also known as Moormann's ring, is a rare membranous stricture of the bulbar urethra. In contrast to the posterior urethral valve (PUV), Cobb's collar is not connected to the verumontanum. A simultaneous occurrence of PUV and Cobb's collar is even rarer.

Article Synopsis
- Velopharyngeal impairment (VPI) is a common issue in dysarthria, prompting a systematic review to evaluate treatment options and update existing guidelines for VPI intervention.
- The review examined 1,347 articles, narrowing down to 31 studies that were methodologically sound, focusing on various therapeutic approaches such as prosthetic treatments and behavioral exercises.
- While no single treatment was definitively proven effective, there is moderate evidence supporting the benefits of prosthetic and behavioral treatments for moderate to severe dysarthria, highlighting a need for more rigorous studies to enhance treatment efficacy.
Radiological Changes in the Spinal Cord and Brain of Patients with HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP).

HTLV-1-associated myelopathy/tropical spastic paraparesis (HAM/TSP) is a chronic, progressive neurological disorder and shares many radiological and clinical features with other more prevalent myelopathies. Here, we quantified spinal cord and brain volumes in adults with HAM/TSP in comparison with healthy volunteers (HVs) and individuals diagnosed with relapsing-remitting or progressive multiple sclerosis (RRMS or P-MS). Clinical disability and MRI were assessed in 24 HVs, 43 HAM/TSP subjects, and 46 MS subjects.
