Musculocutaneous nerve entrapment in the upper arm

International Orthopaedics, 1993
Wasting and weakness of the biceps and brachialis muscles can occur when the musculocutaneous nerve is compressed as it passes through the coracobrachialis muscle; there may also be impairment of sensation on the lateral aspect of the forearm. In our patient, symptoms appeared after strenuous exercise which included more than 500 press-ups each day ...

The musculocutaneous nerve.

The Journal of bone and joint surgery. British volume, 2001
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.

Musculocutaneous Nerve Entrapment

1990
The musculocutaneous nerve is derived from vertebral levels C-5 and C-6. In addition, contributions from C-4 and C-7 are reported to occur in over 50% of observed cases. The nerve originates from the lateral cord of the brachial plexus. It terminates just above the cubital fossa, by piercing the deep fascia lateral to the tendon on the biceps muscle ...

The Musculocutaneous Nerve

2017
The musculocutaneous nerve is a terminal branch of the brachial plexus. Its purpose is to allow the forearm’s flexion; it is also responsible for the sensitive innervation of the forearm’s lateral face until the thumb. It is a mixed nerve with its main part coming from the superior trunk of the brachial plexus and its minor part coming from the reunion

Traumatic Isolated Lesions of Musculocutaneous Nerve

2008
Isolated proximal lesion of musculocutaneous nerve causes a palsy of main flexors of the elbow (biceps and brachialis anterior muscles) but brachioradialis (innervated by radial nerve), epitroclear, and epicondilar muscles are able to maintain a flexion against gravity. For this reason sometimes diagnosis is neither easy nor early [1].

Sensory conduction in the musculocutaneous nerve.

Archives of physical medicine and rehabilitation, 1978
This report describes an antidromic technique for studying conduction in the sensory branch of the musculocutaneous nerve, the lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm. Surface stimulation was done at the elbow where the nerve becomes superficial, and surface recordings were made 12 cm distally over the course of the nerve.

Contribution of musculocutaneous nerve in the formation of median nerve

Journal of Experimental and Clinical Anatomy, 2013
The median nerve is formed by the union of the lateral and medial roots of median nerve. The musculocutaneous nerve is the terminal branch of the lateral cord of the brachial plexus. There are documented variations in the origins, courses and distributions of these nerves.

Communication of the musculocutaneous nerve with the median nerve.

East African medical journal, 2003
To study the frequency of occurrence as well as the course and variations in the communicating branch of the musculocutaneous nerve and the relationship of the communicating branch to other structures in the upper arms of Zimbabwean subjects.Cross sectional anatomical dissections.Department of Anatomy,University of Zimbabwe Medical School, Harare ...

[Isolated neuropraxy of the musculocutaneous nerve].

Magyar traumatologia, orthopaedia es helyreallito sebeszet, 1990
Authors describe a case of isolated posttraumatic neuropraxy of the musculocutaneous nerve. With the presentation of this very rare case attention is called, based on literary date, to the fact that the above injury can be mixed with the distal tendon rupture of the biceps.
