Lesions of Pons

Описание: Join Dr. Muhammad Ali Rabbani in an engaging lecture on Pons Syndromes , a detailed exploration of various syndromes that affect the pons, an essential part of the brainstem. This lecture is part of the Neuroanatomy series conducted on Medicose Academics, freely available on our YouTube channel. Learn how vascular events and other pathologies lead to the characteristic presentations seen in pons lesions.

🔬 Key Topics Covered:
Medial Pontine Syndrome: Understand the effects of basilar artery blockage on corticospinal tracts, medial lemniscus, and the cranial nerves, leading to contralateral hemiparesis, sensory loss, and lateral rectus palsy.
Lateral Pontine Syndrome: Examine the involvement of anterior inferior cerebellar and superior cerebellar arteries and their impact on facial nerve, vestibular nuclei, trigeminal nuclei, and cerebellar pathways.
Locked-in Syndrome: Learn about this devastating condition caused by damage to bilateral corticospinal and corticobulbar tracts, leaving the patient awake and aware but unable to move or communicate effectively.
Impact on Reflex Arcs and Autonomic Control: Explore how lesions in the pons affect various reflexes, eye movements, and autonomic functions like bladder control and sympathetic outputs.

🎓 Learning Objectives: By the end of this video, learners will:
Identify the key pons syndromes and understand the structures involved.
Differentiate between medial and lateral pontine syndromes based on clinical presentations.
Recognize the features and implications of locked-in syndrome.
Apply this knowledge in clinical practice to localise lesions and understand the impact on motor and sensory functions.

💡 Clinical Relevance:
Enhance your diagnostic skills in identifying brainstem lesions and understanding the clinical syndromes of the pons.
Improve your ability to localise lesions based on clinical findings and neurological deficits.
Apply these concepts to real-life patient scenarios and improve management strategies.
