Spinal cord and cauda equina. Note that the spinal cord ends at about L1, with the conus medullaris. Nerve roots travel further down as the cauda equina. Their relative mobility within the cerebrospinal fluid decreases the risk of neural damage with subarachnoid injections done at the L4 level.

Nerve transfer surgery is a newer procedure that can improve movement in the elbows, wrists and hands after a cervical spinal cord injury. In people with spinal cord injury, the nerves leaving the spinal cord above the area of injury continue to work while the ones below may not. The person still has sensation and control over the muscles connected to the nerves above the injury. Learn more. #nervetransfer #surgery #plasticsurgery #spinalcordinjuries
