Axillary nerve position in the anterosuperior approach of the shoulder: a cadaveric study [PDF]
Acta Ortopédica Brasileira, 2015 Objective: To determine the distance between the axillary nerve and the antero-lateral (AL) edge of the acromion, its anatomical variability and relationship to humeral length and body height.Methods: Twenty-two shoulders were dissected.

3D computerized model for measuring strain and displacement of the brachial plexus following placement of reverse shoulder prosthesis [PDF]
, 2008 The aim of the present study was to develop a method for three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the brachial plexus to study its morphology and to calculate strain and displacement in relation to changed nerve position.

The axillary approach to raising the latissimus dorsi free flap for facial re-animation: a descriptive surgical technique [PDF]
, 2015 The latissimus dorsi flap is popular due to the versatile nature of its applications. When used as a pedicled flap it provides a robust solution when soft tissue coverage is required following breast, thoracic and head and neck surgery.

Axillary nerve injury: Current concept review
Journal of Orthopaedic Reports, 2022 Background: The axillary nerve is the most commonly injured nerve in the shoulder and is particularly susceptible to injury due to its anatomical relation in the quadrangular space on the posterior scapula.

Partial Radial Nerve Transfer to the Axillary Nerve for Reconstruction of Shoulder Abduction
Egyptian Spine Journal, 2015 Background Data: In cases of axillary nerve injury, surgical reconstruction is indicated when no spontaneous recovery is noted after three to six months. Surgical repair has been carried out by neurolysis, a nerve graft or nerve transfer.

Bilateral Long Head of the Triceps Brachii Muscle Innervation via Axillary Nerve: A Case Report [PDF]
, 2023 The radial nerve has traditionally been considered the innervation of the long head of the triceps brachii (LHT). However, cadaveric studies have discovered LHT innervation via the axillary nerve in roughly 6-15 % of shoulders.

Nerve transfers for treatment of isolated axillary nerve injuries [PDF]
Plastic Surgery, 2015 Background The most common neurological defect in traumatic anterior glenohumeral dislocation is isolated axillary nerve palsy. Most recover spontaneously; however, some have persistent axillary neuropathy. An intact rotator cuff may compensate for an isolated axillary nerve injury; however, given the high rate of rotator cuff pathology with advancing ...

Variations in the Branching Pattern of the Radial Nerve Branches to Triceps Brachii Muscle [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019 Introduction: The axillary nerve arises from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus and supplies the deltoid and teres minor muscles. Axillary nerve injuries lead to abduction and external rotation weakness.
