A variation of brachial plexus : absence of musculocuta-neous nerve

Abstract EN

The musculocutaneous nerve derives from lateral cord of brachial plexus and innervate to anterior muscles of arm and lateral aspect of forearm.

Some variations of this nerve was reported.

In this case, absence of the musculocutaneous nerve was noted in a cadaver during routine dissection.

The various muscles which normally supplied by the musculocutaneous nerve were instead supplied by the median nerve.
