introduction of a variation in latissimus dorsi muscle (the axillary arch of langer)
conclusions the axillary arch variation is very clinically important, because it may entrap and implicate the neurovascular bundle. also it is important for surgeons during operation, so they need to be aware of possible presence of such variations. case presentation during routine dissection, we encountered an aberrant slip of muscle and fascia expanded from latissimus dorsi to pectoralis majo...
متن کاملA common insertion of thoracoepicondylaris and an axillary arch of Langer: a case report
An axillary arch is considered to be an variant muscle or tendinous slip that arises form the lower border of latissimus dorsi to join the tendon of pectoralis major, coracobrachalis, or fascia over the biceps. It is present in about 7% of the cases and may be multiple [1]. An axillary arch is thought to be a vestige of panniculus carnosus muscle [2]. Thoracoepicondylaris is a very rare muscula...
متن کاملChondrohumeralis and axillary arch of Langer: a rare combination of variant muscles with unique insertion.
During routine dissection, we found a rare case of an aberrant muscular slip originating from the pectoralis major called as the "chondroepitrochlearis / thoracoepicondylaris / costohumeralis" and an anomalous slip from the latissimus dorsi called as "axillary arch of Langer / musculus dorsoepitrochlearis" in the same axilla. Interestingly, these two slips found to have a common insertion after...
متن کاملAxillary arch: a rare variation
The axillary arch is a muscle slip varying from 7 to 10 cm in length and 5 to 15 mm in breadth. It occasionally arises from the edge of the latissimus dorsi, at about the middle of the posterior fold of the axilla and crosses the axilla in front of the axillary vessels and nerves to join the under-surface of the tendon of the pectoralis major, the coracobrachialis, or the fascia over the biceps...
متن کاملAxillary arch muscle.

In the present article, a case of 50 year old male cadaver with axillary arch in the right axillary region is being reported. It originated from anterior border of latissimus dorsi and merged with short head of biceps brachii. The embryological derivation, genetic basis and clinical implication of this muscular variant ...
