İdiyopatik Bilateral Aksesuar Sinir Felci

Spinal aksesuar sinir hasarı sıklıkla boyun cerrahileri sonrasında görülmektedir. Cerrahi dışında traksiyon, gerilme, künt travma, penetran yaralanmalar gibi çeşitli nedenlerle izole spinal aksesuar sinir hasarı görülmektedir.  Spinal aksesuar sinir felcinde trapez kas atrofisi, servikal dismetri, omuzda çökme, supraspinatus çıkışında daralma sonucu subakromiyal sıkışma görülebilir. Bu yazıda omuz ağrısı ve güçsüzlük ile başvuran hastada bilateral spinal aksesuar sinir felci gelişimini sunmayı amaçladık.

Idiopathic Bilateral Accessory Nerve Palsy

Spinal accessory nerve injury is often seen after neck surgeries.Isolated spinal accessory nerve injury is observed for various reasons such as traction, stretching, blunt trauma, and penetrating injuries. In spinal accessory nerve palsy, there may be trapezoidal muscle atrophy, cervical dysmetria, collapse in the shoulder, and contraction of supraspinatus. In this article, we aimed to present the development of bilateral spinal accessory nerve palsy in the patient presenting with shoulder pain and weakness.
