Erlacher Muscular Neurotization

Erlacher muscular neurotization is a surgical procedure used to treat muscle injuries and diseases. It involves transplanting nerve fibers from a healthy muscle to a damaged one.

Erlacher muscular neurotization was developed by the Austrian orthopedist Paul Julius Erlacher in 1928. He noticed that when muscles are injured, especially when nerve fibers are damaged, the muscles cannot fully function. As a result, the patient experiences muscle pain and weakness.

Erlacher's procedure for muscular neurotization is as follows:

1. The patient is under general anesthesia.
2. The doctor makes a small incision in the muscle to access the nerve fibers.
3. The doctor cuts the nerve fibers that are in the damaged muscle.
4. The doctor then uses microsurgical instruments to transfer nerve fibers from the healthy muscle to the damaged one.
5. After the nerve fibers are transplanted, the doctor closes the incision and stitches the wound.

As a result of the Erlacher procedure, damaged nerve fibers are replaced with healthy nerve fibers, allowing the muscles to function normally again. The procedure can be performed on any part of the body where there are damaged muscles.

Although the Erlacher muscle neurotization procedure is safe and effective, it has its drawbacks. For example, it can cause complications such as infection or nerve damage. Additionally, the procedure can be expensive and require recovery time.

However, Erlacher muscular neurotization is the only treatment for many muscle diseases and injuries, and its use can significantly improve the quality of life of patients.

Erlacher mouse. neurotization - the appearance of muscle contractures due to weakening of neuromuscular transmission. It is a late complication of peripheral paralysis, occurring due to dysfunction of the corresponding centers in the brain stem or spinal cord. Clinically manifests itself as tension or excessive muscle mobility associated with increased muscle tone. Treatment is carried out using functional methods. Prevention involves timely recognition and treatment of the underlying disease. The appearance of muscle contractures after injury to peripheral nerves or in case of paralysis due to non-compliance with orthopedic measures leads to a violation of the correct position of the limb in space and its function. Muscle contractures prevent normal movement and increase the tone of the affected muscle. As a result, excessive muscle tension can cause the development of hypertension, chondrosomes, and bone marrow cysts. Removal of muscle contracture after childbirth (collievexia) is often combined with surgery for heart disease and appendicitis. During spinal surgery, it is often necessary to fenestrate the muscle with scars. Contracture of the hand and foot is associated with loss of sensitivity in the area of ​​nerve innervation and lack of normal adaptation of posture and movements. Erlacher-Parkinson syndrome The syndrome occurs due to damage to the bulbar and other spinal segments of the nerve nuclei as a result of inflammation, circulatory disorders or hemorrhages. Usually occurs in the form of spastic paralysis with simultaneous bilateral violation of the act of swallowing. Sometimes central paralysis and paresis are combined with motor deviations.
