A Cadaveric Study of the Communications Between Median And Musculocutaneous Nerve In The Infraclavicular Part Of The Brachial Plexus

Journal Title: IJAR-Indian Journal of Applied Research - Year 2016, Vol 6, Issue 11

Abstract

Awareness of the communication between the median and Musculocutaneous nerves is necessary for neurologists, traumatology of the shoulder joints and anesthetists. The axilla and arm were dissected and the various communications between the median and Musculocutaneous nerve were observed. Communications at the level of the upper one third of the arm was present in 3 specimens. The Musculocutaneous nerve after piercing the Coracobrachialis fused with the median nerve in one specimen. The Musculocutaneous nerve was absent and branches were arising directly from the median nerve in 3 specimens. There were two communicating branches between median and Musculocutaneous nerves in one specimen. Communication between median nerve and ulnar nerve was present in one specimen.
