“…In isolated spinal accessory neuropathy, most cases are idiopathic or without history of trauma. Although uncommon, there are also reports of neuritis due to autoimmune and infectious diseases (Martínez‐Catalán et al, 2020).…”

Scapulothoracic fixation surgery is a surgical intervention used for symptom relief in patients who suffer from scapular dysfunction. To date, there are few reports on the use of regional anesthesia for pain control in patients undergoing this procedure. The nerve supply of the scapula and surrounding tissues is complex and arises from both cervical and thoracic nerve roots. We suggest the use of a combined technique for perioperative pain control in patients undergoing scapulothoracic surgery. After a review of the relevant anatomy, we present four cases using combined regional techniques for postoperative pain control. The techniques utilized include thoracic paravertebral blocks with shoulder blockade, resulting in satisfactory pain control.

“…Although the incidence rate remains uncertain [ 12 ], neurological manifestations in DENV infections have been widely reported [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], reviewed in [ 10 ], and have ranged from encephalitis [ 17 , 18 ]–the most commonly reported neurological symptom–to seizures [ 19 ], mononeuropathy [ 20 , 21 ], cerebrovascular events [ 14 ], meningitis [ 22 , 23 ], and Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) or Miller-Fisher syndrome [ 15 , 24 ]. The explosive global spread of ZIKV and its introduction in South America was associated with neurological manifestations [ 25 , 26 ] such as congenital Zika syndrome (CZS) [ 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 ], neuropathy [ 30 ], GBS [ 31 , 32 ], stroke [ 33 ], and ocular manifestations [ 34 , 35 ].…”

Arbovirus infections are increasingly important causes of disease, whose spectrum of neurological manifestations are not fully known. This study sought to retrospectively assess the incidence of arboviruses in cerebrospinal fluid samples of patients with neurological symptoms to inform diagnosis of central and peripheral nervous system disorders. A total of 255 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples collected from January 2016 to December 2017 were tested for dengue virus (DENV 1-4), Zika virus (ZIKV), and Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) in addition to other neurotropic arboviruses of interest, using genetic and serologic assays. Of the 255 CSF samples analyzed, 3.53% (09/255) were positive for arboviruses presenting mainly as meningitis, encephalitis, and cerebrovascular events, of which ZIKV was detected in 2.74% (7/255), DENV in 0.78% (2/255), in addition to an identified ILHV infection that was described previously. All the cases were detected in adults aged 18 to 74 years old. Our findings highlight the scientific and clinical importance of neurological syndromes associated with arboviruses and demonstrate the relevance of specific laboratory methods to achieve accurate diagnoses as well as highlight the true dimension of these diseases to ultimately improve public health planning and medical case management.
