30 paź 2023 · The abducens (or abducent) nerve is the sixth paired cranial nerve (CN VI). Along with the oculomotor nerve (CN III) and the trochlear nerve (CN IV), it is a purely motor nerve responsible for controlling movement of the eyeball.
Nerw odwodzący (łac. nervus abducens) – w anatomii człowieka VI nerw czaszkowy. Ma charakter ruchowy. Unerwia mięsień prosty boczny gałki ocznej. Jego porażenie powoduje zeza zbieżnego. Przebieg.

13 mar 2019 · The abducens nerve is the sixth paired cranial nerve. It has a purely somatic motor function – providing innervation to the lateral rectus muscle. In this article, we shall look at the anatomy of the abducens nerve – its anatomical course, motor functions and clinical relevance.
21 lis 2022 · Cranial nerve six (CN VI), also known as the abducens nerve, is 1 of the nerves responsible for the extraocular motor functions of the eye, along with the oculomotor nerve (CN III) and the trochlear nerve (CN IV).
Background: The sixth cranial nerve (CN VI) — or the abducens nerve — in humans supplies only the lateral rectus muscle. Due to its topographic conditions, including angulations and fixation points along its course from the brainstem to the lateral rectus muscle, the CN VI is vulnerable to injury. Every case of CN VI palsy requires
Definition. IMAIOS. Number: VI. Name: Abducens. Sensory, motor, or both: Mainly motor. Origin/Target: Nuclei lying under the floor of the fourth ventricle, Pons. Nuclei: Abducens nucleus. Function: Innervates the lateral rectus, which abducts the eye. Located in the superior orbital fissure.
The abducens nerve (CN VI) is a motor nerve that carries general somatic efferent fibers to exclusively innervate the lateral rectus muscle of the eye. Twelve cranial nerves, their exit points, anatomical course, branches and topography.
