Bilateral communication between musculocutaneous nerve and median nerve - a case report
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.

Nerve transfer in brachial plexus traction injuries [PDF]
Background. The aim of this study was to analyze the results of nerve transfer to the musculocutaneous and axillary nerves, using some technical modalities such as intercostal, spinal accessory or intraplexal transfer, and on the basis of the results to ...

The Effects of 0.3 mA and 0.5 mA Threshold Currents on Axillary Brachial Plexus Block [PDF]
Aim:The nerve block success by peripheral nerve stimulator may be increased by optimal nerve localization. However, it is not clear which current threshold is more suitable for this.

Sonographic Imaging of the Superficial Radial Nerve and its Branches: A Pictorial Review
ABSTRACT Entrapment of the superficial radial nerve (SRN) can be a source of radial wrist, dorsal hand, and thumb pain which can be challenging to clinically differentiate from other pathological entities. Ultrasound allows direct visualization of the SRN and its branches as well as the assessment of the site, extent, and type of nerve injury or ...

Delayed rupture of a pseudoaneurysm in the brachial artery of a burn reconstruction patient [PDF]
A brachial artery pseudoaneurysm is a rare but serious condition that can be limb threatening. A number of reports have found that it may be the result of damage to the blood vessels around the brachial artery, either directly or indirectly, due to ...

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.

Methylcobalamin facilitates collateral sprouting of donor axons and innervation of recipient muscle in end-to-side neurorrhaphy in rats. [PDF]
Using ulnar nerve as donor and musculocutaneous nerve as recipient we found earlier that end-to-side neurorrhaphy resulted in weak functional reinnervation after lengthy survival.

In this work we demonstrate for the first time that reticulospinal tract (RST) excitability can be indirectly measured using conditioned cervicomedullary motor evoked potentials (CMEPs) during dynamic muscle actions. Although there were no differences in RST excitability across isometric, concentric and eccentric muscle actions during the same absolute

Absence of the Musculocutaneous Nerve; Two Case Reports and Literature Review
The musculocutaneous nerve is important in the upper extremity because it provides motor innervation to the musculature of the anterior arm region and sensory innervation to the skin on the lateral side of the forearm region.

Contralateral C7 Nerve Root Transfer for Function Recovery in Adults: A Meta-analysis
Background: Root avulsion to all 5 roots of the brachial plexus is a common presentation and keeps a major reconstructive challenge. The contralateral C7 (CC7) nerve transfer has been used in treating brachial plexus avulsion injury (BPAI) since 1986 ...
