Übersetzung für 'axonotmesis' von Englisch nach Deutsch

axonotmesis

Axonotmesis {f}biol.

• In order of degree of severity, injury to a nerve can be described as neurapraxia, axonotmesis, or neurotmesis.
• Axonotmesis is an injury to the peripheral nerve of one of the extremities of the body.
• With Seddon's classification of nerve injuries, it is often tough to identify whether a particular nerve injury is neurotmesis, or axonotmesis, which has damage to the nerve fibres but preservation of the nerve trunk.
• Seddon's axonotmesis and second-degree are the same.
• The three main types of nerve injury are neurapraxia, axonotmesis and neurotmesis.

• In order for the condition to be considered neurapraxia, according to the Seddon classification system of peripheral nerve injury, there must be a complete and relatively rapid recovery of motor and sensory function once nerve conduction has been restored; otherwise, the injury would be classified as axonotmesis or neurotmesis.
