Unusual anatomic variant of the axillary nerve challenging the deltopectoral approach to the shoulder: a case report [PDF]
Patient Safety in Surgery, 2019 Background The deltopectoral approach is a well-described surgical approach to the proximal humerus and glenohumeral joint. One of the structures at risk during this approach is the axillary nerve.

Radial to axillary nerve transfer [PDF]
Neurosurgical Focus, 2018 Axillary nerve injury is common after brachial plexus injuries, particularly with shoulder luxation. Nerve grafting is the traditional procedure for postganglionic injuries. Nerve transfer is emerging as a viable option particularly in late referrals. At the proximal arm the radial and axillary nerves lie close by. Sacrificing one of the triceps muscle

Axillary nerve conduction changes in hemiplegia [PDF]
Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2008 Aim To prove the possibility of axillary nerve conduction changes following shoulder subluxation due to hemiplegia, in order to investigate the usefulness of screening nerve conduction studies in patients with hemiplegia for finding peripheral neuropathy.

VARIATIONS OF ORIGIN AND DISTANCE OF AXILLARY NERVE: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY
, 2018 Background – Axillary nerve, one of the terminal branches of posterior cord of brachial plexus is more prone for injuries. Lack of proper anatomical knowledge and variations of axillary nerve leads to risk of nerve injuries.
