| Popis: | Our goals were to carry out an anatomical description of the internal architecture of the supinator muscle in order to describe potentially compressive structures for the deep branch of the radial nerve (DBRN) and to establish reference landmarks for the surgical treatment of radial tunnel syndrome. Thirty upper limbs were dissected. The pennation angle of proximal and distal arcades of the supinator to the radial shaft axis was measured. Possible compressive structures of both superficial and deep heads of supinator were recorded. Proximal and distal arcades of the superficial layer of the supinator were classified according to their fiber content as tendinous, musculo-tendinous, muscular or membranous. The distances of superficial layer of the supinator muscle to the humeroradial joint line and lateral epicondyle were measured. Pennation angle was 33.6° (±4.2°) for the superficial layer and 50.2° (±6.6°) for the deep layer. The difference was statistically significant (p |
