Rabiu","doi":"10.5580/880","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5580/880","url":null,"abstract":"The oculomotor (third) cranial nerve arises from the upper part of the mesencephalon (midbrain). It carries both a somatic efferent (motor) supply to some of the extra-ocular muscles and a general visceral efferent (parasympathetic) supply to the sphincter pupillae and ciliaris muscles. Its contribution to the pupillary light reflex represents an important aspect of its function and is an essential component of the evaluation of neurological patients. This paper reviews the neuroclinical aspects of the nerve�s anatomy and and provides easily understandable guidance to an effective assessment of its dysfunction. The contributions of the third cranial nerve to pupillary reaction to light, the changes in pupillary size reflecting the various stages of its dysfunction in intracranial pathologies, and its association with neurotrauma as well as some of the eponymous syndromes associated with it are discussed.","PeriodicalId":232166,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Neurology","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129825381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There were many modifications of the basic procedure. The American neurologist Walter Freeman popularized the transorbital frontal lobotomy in which electroconvulsive therapy was used for anesthesia and then an ice-prick resembling instrument called the leucotome was inserted into the orbital roof by lifting the upper eyelid 2, . A hammer or a mallet was then used to drive the leucotome through the thin layer of orbital bone into the patient’s brain. The leucotome was then swept across from side to side severing the connections of the prefrontal cortex.","PeriodicalId":232166,"journal":{"name":"The Internet Journal of Neurology","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132173610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
