Description

Excerpt from Annals of Surgery, Vol. 46: A Monthly Review of Surgical Science and Practice; July-December, 1907 The results of tensing and relaxing the sacral nerve-roots in this type, by descent and elevation respectively of the sacral lever, are demonstrated in the illustrations (see sacral leverage, p. Where in this type the posterior wall of the arachnoid sac is free and the subarachnoid space ample behind the nerve roots (fig. Tension on the mesially lying nerve-roots would evidently be of no import unless the needle point penetrated to the depth at which the nerves lay. Then, it can be seen that a relaxed nerve (figs. 9 and 11) would be less liable to become impaled than would a tensed one. Its mobility enabling it to elude the needle point unless pinioned by the latter against the anterior wall of the spinal canal. The relaxed nerves, with a water content of the sac, gravitated dependently from their sites of attachment. So that the positions they would assume in the subarachnoid cavity of living man would doubtless vary with the posture of the body. In the dissection shown in Fig. 13, the sacral nerve-roots were of too great length to be made taut by the descent of the sacral lever. In this dissection it can be seen that the normal fixation of the nerve mass on either side, together with the support of the sac's walls by its fluid content, must maintain the mesial position of the cleft. The water was introduced into the subarachnoid space in the dissection illustrated in Fig. 10. Through the foramen magnum.
