| Popis: |
Anatomic dissections were performed in 72 cadaveric upper extremities from 36 cadavers to determine the incidence of anomalous variations in the course of the median nerve and its branches. The classic recurrent motor branch anatomy was demonstrated in 86% of the dissections (62/72). Of the 10 variations noted (14% of all upper extremities), all were transretinacular branches that pierced the transverse carpal ligament 2 to 6 mm proximal to the distal edge. Of the six cadavers with anomalous branching, four (67%) had bilateral anomalies and two (33%) had unilateral branching. |
