 More than you would

ever want to know about Dermatomes.

 (And how important are

they anyway?)

 About the right amount

about Myotomes.

 (And an easy way to

remember them)

Peripheral nerve sensory distribution charts are more “precise” than Dermatome charts as the boundaries are more defined.

Peripheral nerve lesions cause a variable area of sensory loss but it tends to be more dense than dermatomal loss and there is little overlap between peripheral nerves.

There is considerable overlap between dermatomes Nerve Root compression pain is usually sclerotomal so does not follow dermatomal lines. Although most motor actions involve more than one myotome individual root compression can cause profound motor deficits: Footdrop after L5 crush Triceps weakness after C7 compression Intrinsic muscle of hand with T1 lesion
