Bilateral absence of the musculocutaneous nerve : implications for humerus fracture and atypical median nerve palsy [PDF]
The absence of the musculocutaneous nerve represents a failure of the nerve to depart from the median nerve during early development. During a routine dissection of a 66-year-old white female cadaver, a bilateral absence of the musculocutaneous nerve was

Unusual nerve supply of biceps from ulnar nerve and median nerve and a third head of biceps
Variations in branching pattern of the brachial plexus are common and have been reported by several investigators. Of the four main nerves traversing the arm, namely median, ulnar, radial and musculocutaneous, the ulnar and median nerve do not give any ...

A Variant Course of Lateral Root of Median Nerve: Embryological Basis
During routine dissection of the right arm of 50 year old male cadaver, we observed that the lateral root of median nerve was piercing the coracobrachialis muscle before joining the medial root of median to form the median nerve.

Segmental composition and nerve distribution of the brachial plexus in Galictis cuja
Abstract Galictis cuja is a neotropical mustelid with terrestrial locomotor habits, yet the anatomy of its brachial plexus has remained undescribed. This study characterizes the origin, organization, and distribution of the brachial plexus nerves in 15 adult specimens (30 antimeres).
