With in-depth information on pelvic physiology and anatomy, this guide includes chapters highlighting a range of pelvic dysfunctions and outlines corresponding therapeutic interventions. It features novel perspectives that deviate from accepted theories.

Based on material assembled by Dr Jaap HR Schoen who was one of the few neuroanatomists to apply the Nauta method to human material. Gaining insight in the consequences of longitudinal damage to the human spinal cord is necessary before reimplantation of the avulsed rootlets or an autologous transplant can be performed in man.

In humans the trigeminal nuclear complex includes the motor nucleus, the principal sensory (pontine) nucleus, the spinal nucleus (subdivided into oral, interpolar and caudal nuclei), and the mesencephalic nucleus and several small nuclei.

Part II starts with a systemic model of the basal ganglia to evaluate the position of the STN in the direct, indirect and hyperdirect pathways. STN cell models: single and multi compartment, and system level models are discussed in relation to subthalamic function and dysfunction.

This monograph on the subthalamic nucleus accentuates the gap between experimental animal and human information concerning subthalamic development, cytology, topography and connections.

This volume of Advances in Anatomy, Embryology and Cell Biology presents these particular studies on the development of the rat spinal cord performed over the last decade.
