Anomalous retrogressive palmaris longus.
Ann Afr Med, 2023 An interesting case of unusual unilateral variant of palmaris longus (PL) tendon of forearm was noticed by us. We found two bellies of PL as well as their different insertions. These observations will help in understanding morphological variations of this muscle and its clinical implications.

A Cadaveric Case of Palmaris Longus Agenesis and Reversal. [PDF]
Cureus, 2023 The palmaris longus frequently exhibits anatomical variations with palmaris longus agenesis and reversal being the most prevalent. These variations are relevant clinically, as the muscle is often used during plastic surgeries for grafting tendons. They are also relevant in pathology, as hypertrophy of the reversed muscle is related to median nerve ...

An unreported variant of palmaris longus muscle. [PDF]
Anat Cell BiolPalmaris longus is a highly variable muscle of the forearm. Knowledge of its variability is of importance to plastic surgeons, hand surgeons and radiologists. During our routine dissection classes for undergraduate medical students, a peculiar palmaris longus muscle was noted in the left upper limb of an adult male cadaver.

The incidence of palmaris longus in the heterogeneous Israeli population. [PDF]
J Hand Surg Eur Vol, 2023 We evaluated the frequency of absence of the palmaris longus tendon in the heterogeneous Israeli population. Nine hundred and fifty wrists were evaluated using a modified Mishra/Schaeffer technique (thumb/little-finger opposition with resisted wrist flexion), which was validated by ultrasound scanning.

Backwards and Bilateral: An Unexpected Variation of the Palmaris Longus. [PDF]
CureusThe palmaris longus (PL) is a slender forearm muscle that contributes to wrist flexion and tensioning of the palmar aponeurosis, though its presence and configuration can vary among individuals. This study describes a rare occurrence of bilateral reversed palmaris longus (RPL) identified during routine cadaveric dissection, in which the muscle belly is
