Cervical sympathetic and stellate ganglion blocks.
Sympathetic blocks in the cervical and upper thoracic region are commonly used techniques for a variety of diagnostic, therapeutic and prognostic purposes. Stellate ganglion block is the common nomenclature utilized, however, stellate ganglion is present in only 80% of the population, thus, either lower cervical sympathetic block or upper thoracic sympathetic block is an appropriate term. The c...
متن کاملInhibition in Rat Sympathetic Stellate Ganglion Neurons
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChR) are known to mediate the acetylcholine inhibition of Ca 2+ channels in central and peripheral neurons. Stellate ganglion (SG) neurons provide the main sympathetic input to the heart and contribute to the regulation of heart rate and myocardial contractility. Little information is available regarding mAChR regulation of Ca 2+ channels in SG neurons. The...
متن کاملReflex sympathetic dystrophy of the upper limb: Treatment using a series of stellate ganglion blocks
Reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD) is a complex syndrome with a plethora of signs and symptoms that vary, both among individuals and with the progression of the disease over time (1). Five clinical types of RSD are recognized, including minor causalgia, minor traumatic dystrophy, shoulder hand syndrome, major causalgia and major traumatic dystrophy. The term ‘causalgia’ (burning pain) is reserv...
متن کاملStereological Study on the Neurons of Superior Cervical Sympathetic Ganglion in Diabetic Rats
Background: Most research on autonomic dysfunction of diabetes mellitus is conducted on ganglions innervating gastrointestinal (GI) tract and there are limited works focusing on cervical sympathetic ganglia. The effects of diabetes mellitus (DM) on the neurons of superior cervical sympathetic ganglion (SCSG) are investigated by stereological methods. Material and Methods: Female rats (n=72) ran...
