Not illustrated. 1884 Excerpt: ...extent, separates all parts below the lesion from the brain, and hence, so far as will and perception are concerned, produces the same effect as if the whole of the cord below the lesion were destroyed. A section across the cord in the middle of the cervical enlargement, for instance, paralyses all parts below the neck with the exception of the diaphragm. Hence the extent of the paralysis indicates only the upward limit of the lesion. This is also indicated by the position of the girdle-pain and radiating pains, or zone of hyperaesthesia, which are due to the irritation of the sensory roots in the lowest part of the upper segment--an important indication when the lesion is in the dorsal region, where the precise limitation of motor weakness may be recognized with difficulty. It is important, however, to know the symptoms which occur in disease at different levels. ' These are shown in the accompanying diagram and table (Fig. 14), and may be understood from the following description. The indication of the upper level of the lesion is afforded by the loss of the motor and sensory functions, shown in the first two columns. The lowest nerves supply the anus and perineum. The nerves which supply the skin and muscles of the leg and foot arise from the 1st to the 3rd sacral nerves, and are damaged by a lesion involving the lower part of the lumbar enlargement. We must remember, however, that the skin on the inner side of the leg is not supplied from this source, and so may escape when the outer part of the leg and back of the thigh have lost sensation. In the middle of the lumbar enlargement, we have the nerves arising which enter the lumbo-sacral cord, and these are probably destined for the flexors of the knee, and for the hip muscles which are supplied by the s...
