Urinary bladder sphincter dysfunction- MedGen UID:
- 334804
- •Concept ID:
- C1843663
- •
- Finding
Abnormal function of a sphincter of the urinary bladder.
Ankle clonus- MedGen UID:
- 68672
- •Concept ID:
- C0238651
- •
- Finding
Clonus is an involuntary tendon reflex that causes repeated flexion and extension of the foot. Ankle clonus is tested by rapidly flexing the foot upward.
Lower limb muscle weakness- MedGen UID:
- 324478
- •Concept ID:
- C1836296
- •
- Finding
Weakness of the muscles of the legs.
Cerebellar ataxia- MedGen UID:
- 849
- •Concept ID:
- C0007758
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Cerebellar ataxia refers to ataxia due to dysfunction of the cerebellum. This causes a variety of elementary neurological deficits including asynergy (lack of coordination between muscles, limbs and joints), dysmetria (lack of ability to judge distances that can lead to under- or overshoot in grasping movements), and dysdiadochokinesia (inability to perform rapid movements requiring antagonizing muscle groups to be switched on and off repeatedly).
Babinski sign- MedGen UID:
- 19708
- •Concept ID:
- C0034935
- •
- Finding
Upturning of the big toe (and sometimes fanning of the other toes) in response to stimulation of the sole of the foot. If the Babinski sign is present it can indicate damage to the corticospinal tract.
Spastic paraplegia- MedGen UID:
- 20882
- •Concept ID:
- C0037772
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Spasticity and weakness of the leg and hip muscles.
Hyperreflexia- MedGen UID:
- 57738
- •Concept ID:
- C0151889
- •
- Finding
Hyperreflexia is the presence of hyperactive stretch reflexes of the muscles.
Spastic gait- MedGen UID:
- 115907
- •Concept ID:
- C0231687
- •
- Finding
Spasticity is manifested by increased stretch reflex which is intensified with movement velocity. This results in excessive and inappropriate muscle activation which can contribute to muscle hypertonia. Spastic gait is characterized by manifestations such as muscle hypertonia, stiff knee, and circumduction of the leg.
Dysmetria- MedGen UID:
- 68583
- •Concept ID:
- C0234162
- •
- Finding
A type of ataxia characterized by the inability to carry out movements with the correct range and motion across the plane of more than one joint related to incorrect estimation of the distances required for targeted movements.
Cerebellar atrophy- MedGen UID:
- 196624
- •Concept ID:
- C0740279
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
Cerebellar atrophy is defined as a cerebellum with initially normal structures, in a posterior fossa with normal size, which displays enlarged fissures (interfolial spaces) in comparison to the foliae secondary to loss of tissue. Cerebellar atrophy implies irreversible loss of tissue and result from an ongoing progressive disease until a final stage is reached or a single injury, e.g. an intoxication or infectious event.
Peripheral axonal neuropathy- MedGen UID:
- 266071
- •Concept ID:
- C1263857
- •
- Disease or Syndrome
An abnormality characterized by disruption of the normal functioning of peripheral axons.
Lower limb spasticity- MedGen UID:
- 220865
- •Concept ID:
- C1271100
- •
- Finding
Spasticity (velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes with increased muscle tone and hyperexcitable tendon reflexes) in the muscles of the lower limbs, hips, and pelvis.
Lower limb amyotrophy- MedGen UID:
- 870475
- •Concept ID:
- C4024921
- •
- Finding
Muscular atrophy affecting the lower limb.
- Abnormality of limbs
- Abnormality of the genitourinary system
- Abnormality of the musculoskeletal system
- Abnormality of the nervous system
