Rare anatomical variation of the musculocutaneous nerve – case report☆
The clinical and surgical importance of anatomical knowledge of the musculocutaneous nerve and its variations is due to the fact that one of the complications in many upper-limb surgical procedures involves injury to this nerve. During routine dissection of the right upper limb of a male cadaver, we observed an anatomical variation of this nerve. The musculocutaneous nerve originated in the lat...
متن کاملA Rare Bilateral Variation in the Formation of Median Nerve
The median nerve is formed by fusion of lateral (C5-C7) and medial (C8, T1) cords from the brachial plexus. Bilateral variations in the formation of median nerve are very rare. One of such variations was observed during the dissection of the upper limb of approximately a 30-35-year-old man cadaver, according to Grant s method. The median nerve was formed by the union of three roots on both side...
متن کاملAbsence of the musculocutaneous nerve: a rare anatomical variation with possible clinical-surgical implications.
CONTEXT The musculocutaneous nerve is one of the terminal branches of the lateral fasciculus of the brachial plexus, and is responsible for innervation of the flexor musculature of the elbow and for skin sensitivity on the lateral surface of the forearm. Its absence has been described previously, but its real prevalence is unknown. CASE REPORT A case of absence of the musculocutaneous nerve t...
متن کاملA new anatomical variation of the musculocutaneous and the median nerve anastomosis.
Variations of the brachial plexus and its terminal branches are not uncommon.Therein, the anatomical variations of the musculocutaneous and the median nerve are classified into 5 types, while the communicating branches between the musculocutaneous and the median nerve are classified into 3 types, depending on their position related to the coracobrachial muscle. The case reviewed in this paper p...
