The thoracic spinal nerve 10 (T10) is a spinal nerve of the thoracic segment. [1] It originates from the spinal column from below the thoracic vertebra 10 (T10).
The vertebral foramen is the large opening posterior to the vertebral body also known as the spinal canal. It contains and protects the spinal cord at the thoracic level. The spinous process is long, triangular on coronal section, directed obliquely downward, arising from the lamina and ending in a tuberculated extremity. These processes ...
When symptomatic, they can cause pain and myelopathy by intra-spinal bleeding, bony expansion or extra-osseous extension into surround soft tissue or the posterior neural elements. [4] [6] [7] [8] Highly vascular (cavernous type) hemangiomas can produce neurologic deficits without prominent evidence of spinal cord compression. The deficits in ...
Some referred pain due to visceral sensations refer to dermatomes that send fibers to the same level of spinal cord. A dermatome is an area of skin supplied by sensory neurons that arise from a spinal nerve ganglion. Symptoms that follow a dermatome (e.g. like pain or a rash) may indicate a pathology that involves the related nerve root ...
The skin around the waist at the level of the umbilicus is supplied by the tenth thoracic spinal nerve (T10 dermatome). The umbilicus itself typically lies at a vertical level corresponding to the junction between the L3 and L4 vertebrae, [3] with a normal variation among people between the L3 and L5 vertebrae. [4]
T5–T9 or T10: Celiac ganglia: Lesser splanchnic nerve: T10–T11: Superior mesenteric ganglia and Aorticorenal ganglia: Least splanchnic nerve: T12: Renal plexus: Lumbar splanchnic nerves: L1–2: Inferior mesenteric ganglia, ganglia of intermesenteric and hypogastric plexuses: Sacral splanchnic nerves: sacral part of sympathetic trunk
T5–T10 [3] The greater splanchnic nerve travels through the diaphragm and enters the abdominal cavity. Its fibers synapse at the celiac ganglia. [4] The nerve contributes to the celiac plexus, a network of nerves located in the vicinity of where the celiac trunk branches from the abdominal aorta.
The lumbar enlargement, located between T10 and L1, handles sensory input and motor output coming from and going to the legs. The spinal cord is continuous with the caudal portion of the medulla, running from the base of the skull to the body of the first lumbar vertebra. It does not run the full length of the vertebral column in adults.
