Anomalous Innervation of the Median Nerve in the Arm in the Absence of the Musculocutaneous Nerve. [PDF]
The brachial plexus innervates the upper extremities. While variations in the formation of the brachial plexus and its terminal branches are quite common, it is uncommon for the median nerve to innervate the muscles of the arm.

Bilateral communication between musculocutaneous nerve and median nerve - a case report [PDF]
During routine dissection of an adult male cadaver, we observed bilateral communication between musculocutaneous nerve and median nerve. The level of origin of the communicating branch from musculocutaneous nerve was different in both arms.

Results of Nerve Transfers to the Musculocutaneous and Axillary Nerves
Nerve transfers in cases of brachial plexus traction injuries with avulsion of spinal nerve roots or irreparable proximal lesions of spinal nerves have been attempted using a variety of donor nerves. The purpose of this study was to analyze the results of nerve transfers to the musculocutaneous and axillary nerves, using collateral branches of the ...

Absence of the musculocutaneous nerve: a rare anatomical variation with possible clinical-surgical implications [PDF]
CONTEXT: The musculocutaneous nerve is one of the terminal branches of the lateral fasciculus of the brachial plexus, and is responsible for innervation of the flexor musculature of the elbow and for skin sensitivity on the lateral surface of the forearm.

Variations in the course and branching pattern of musculocutaneous nerve
Background and aim: The variations in the course and communicating branches of musculocutaneous nerve is of clinical importance in the treatment of recurrent compression neuropathies and in the diagnosis of median nerve lesions.
