Mapping the distribution of Meissner corpuscles throughout the human hand: Sex‐ and age‐dependent variations

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Meissner corpuscles are rapidly adapting mechanoreceptors involved in tactile discrimination in human glabrous hand skin. Detailed information on their regional distribution and variation across age, sex, and hand side remains limited. This study mapped Meissner corpuscles in 17 phalangeal and palmar regions from 46 individuals (27 male and 19

New Insights Into the Anconeus Epitrochlearis Muscle and Its Relationship to the Ulnar Nerve: Anatomical Study

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ulnar neuropathy due to compression at the cubital tunnel is common. However, our understanding of the relationships between this type of nerve compression and the variant anconeus epitrochlearis muscle (AEM) is poorly understood. Therefore, the present anatomical study was performed to better elucidate these relationships.
