I. Tinel. Radicular changes in meningitis Revue neurol. 1909, no. 12

Abstract

Damage to the roots during inflammation of the membranes of the spinal cord, according to the study of the author and the still unpublished observations of Thomas, is explained by the anatomical structure of their sheaths. The latter, as is known, represent a continuation of the spinal meninges, with the subarochnoid space containing cerebrospinal fluid communicating with the excretory lymphatic tracts. The beginnings of these paths are so narrow that the shaped elements easily linger in them.
