Unilateral Absence of Musculocutaneous Nerve and Unusual Supply of Median Nerve – A Case Report [PDF]
Introduction: Anatomical variations of the brachial plexus and its branches are frequently encountered. Absent musculocutaneous nerve with complete or partial takeover of function by median nerve is known.

Rare anatomical variation of the musculocutaneous nerve - case report [PDF]
The clinical and surgical importance of anatomical knowledge of the musculocutaneous nerve and its variations is due to the fact that one of the complications in many upper-limb surgical procedures involves injury to this nerve. During routine dissection

The absent musculocutaneous nerve: A systematic review
The musculocutaneous nerve is occasionally absent in humans. Accordingly, there may be unforeseen clinical implications regarding the atypical innervation of the musculature otherwise supplied by the musculocutaneous nerve. Case reports and prevalence studies have detailed the absence of the musculocutaneous nerve; however, a systematic review has not ...

Bilateral Absence of Musculocutaneous Nerve: A Case Report [PDF]
Detailed knowledge of course and distribution of nerves in the axilla and arm is very important in the management of nerve injuries particularly in case of their variations.

Absence of Musculocutaneous Nerve: Embryological Basis
Variation of brachial plexus characterized by the absence of musculocutaneous nerve in right arm was found during routine dissection of a 54 year old male cadaver. After giving lateral pectoral nerve, rest of the lateral cord continued as lateral root of

A Bilateral Symmetric Accessory Coracobrachialis Muscle Combined With an Interconnection of the Musculocutaneous Nerve With the Median Nerve. [PDF]
This report describes a bilateral symmetric accessory coracobrachialis muscle variant coexisting with a unilateral interconnection of the musculocutaneous nerve and the median nerve. An 80-year-old female cadaver was dissected.

Brachial Plexus Injury and Musculocutaneous Nerve Palsy During Prone Positioning in a Patient With COVID-19. [PDF]
Prone positioning is crucial in the respiratory management of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and reduces mortality. However, this may be complicated by compression-related peripheral nerve injury. We report the case of a male in

Acellular nerve graft enriched with mesenchymal stem cells in the transfer of the phrenic nerve to the musculocutaneous nerve in a
Phrenic nerve transfer has been shown to achieve good nerve regeneration in brachial plexus avulsion. Acellular nerve allografts (ANAs) showed inferior results to autografts, which is why its use with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is currently being ...

The musculocutaneous nerve [PDF]
We have analysed the results of repair of traumatic lesions of the musculocutaneous nerve in 85 patients, which were graded by Seddon's modification of the Medical Research Council system into three types of injury: open 'tidy', open 'untidy' and closed 'traction'. They were also correlated with associated arterial injury.
