Diabetic sensory neuropathy: This form of neuropathy affects multiple nerves in the body, but mainly affects the feet, lower extremities, and sometimes the hands. It affects sensations, not movement, and is caused by poor control of diabetes over the course of several years. Burning, stinging pain can be felt in both feet. Mortonâs neuroma: Also known as interdigital neuropathy, this form of neuropathy affects the interdigital nerves of the feet, at the ball of the foot.
The pericardium (from the Greek ÏÎµÏÎ¯, around and ÎºÎ¬ÏÎ´Î¹Î¿Î½, heart) is a double-walled sac containing the heart and the roots of the great vessels.The pericardial sac has two layers, a serous layer and a fibrous layer.It encloses the pericardial cavity which contains pericardial fluid.n between the parietal and visceral pericardial layers there is a potential space called the pericardial cavity, which contains a supply of lubricating serous fluid known as the pericardial fluid. When the visceral layer comes into contact with heart (not the great vessels) it is known as the epicardium.
When the visceral layer of serous pericardium comes into contact with heart (not the great vessels) it is known as the epicardium. The epicardium is the layer immediately outside of the heart muscle proper (the myocardium). The epicardium is largely made of connective tissue and functions as a protective layer.
