The Bloch equations for the spin dynamics of a 2DEG are derived in the presence of intrinsic (Rashba and Dresselhaus) and extrinsic (impurities) spin-orbit coupling. In comparison to previous analyses, we find new terms arising from the interplay between the two types of spin-orbit interaction. These influence current-induced spin polarisations (CISP), which are shown to have a more complex symmetry with respect to that of the internal Rashba-Dresselhaus field. Our results are derived both diagrammatically and via a semi/quasi-classical approach, based on a SU(2) gauge formulation of spin-orbit coupling.
