Occurred spontaneously in our patient after remote injury to the upper back, and is unilateral. Only present on standing up and disappears in other positions. Improved after treatment with Botulinum toxin (https://twitter.com/bobvarkey/status/1567054631901208576) Dr. Boby Varkey Maramattom @bobvarkey #Unilateral #Dancing #Dorsal #Quadrilaterals #movement #clinical #video #physicalexam #neurology #back #scapula #rhomboid #trapezius

Winged Scapula on Physical Exam Common things being common just standard scapular winging, but this is more exaggerated than typical isolated long thoracic /serratus ant... trap seems involved as well, concern for add’l spinal accessory, therefore for both is lesion at plexus? Even more obscure, dont believe this is case but have seen patients with chronic locked dislocations present this way as well.

 Left Tongue Deviation caused by UMN XII palsy Looks can be deceiving. The UMN innervation of most
Left Tongue Deviation caused by UMN XII palsy Looks can be deceiving. The UMN innervation of most cranial nerves is bilateral which means that each cranial nerve receives impulses from the left and right hemisphere. Exceptions to this rule are CN 5,7 &12. Although at first glance it looks like a left LMN XII n palsy , the preserved movements to either side inspite of deviation on protrusion is suggestive . CT brain ⬇️ Dx- UMN XII nerve palsy. Lesion - infarction right subcortex. Dr. Boby Varkey Maramattom @bobvarkey #Left #Tongue #Deviation #UMN #CNXII #palsy #clinical #video #hypoglossal #physicalexam #neurology
