The knowledge of these variations is of anatomical, radiological, and surgical interest to explain unexpected clinical signs and symptoms. Objective: The large percentage of variations in branching pattern of axillary artery is making it worthwhile to take any anomaly into consideration. The type and frequency of these vascular variations should be well understood and documented, as increasing performance of coronary artery bypass surgery and other cardiovascular surgical procedures. The objective of this study is to observe variations in axillary artery branches in human cadavers. Methods: We dissected 80 limbs of 40 human adult embalmed cadavers of Asian origin and we have studied the branching patterns of the axillary artery.

Ltd., Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India Abstract The clavicle is the most frequently fractured bone in humans. General anesthesia with or without Regional Anesthesia (RA) is most frequently used for clavicle surgeries due to its complex innervation. Many RA techniques, alone or in combination, have been used for clavicle surgeries. These include interscalene block, cervical plexus (superficial and deep) blocks, SCUT (supraclavicular nerve + selective upper trunk) block, and pectoral nerve blocks (PEC I and PEC II). The clavipectoral fascial plane block is also a safe and simple option and replaces most other RA techniques due to its lack of side effects like phrenic nerve palsy or motor block of the upper limb.

  • Axillary Nerve Injury Associated with Sports
    Neurosurg Focus 31 (5):E10, 2011 Axillary nerve injury associated with sports SANGKOOK LEE, M.D.,1 KRIANGSAK SAETIA, M.D.,2 SUPARNA SAHA, M.D.,1 DAVID G. KLINE, M.D.,3 AND DANIEL H. KIM, M.D.1 1Department of Neurosurgery, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas; 2Division of Neurosurgery, Department of Surgery, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand; and 3Department of Neurosurgery, Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center, New Orleans, Louisiana Object. The aim of this retrospective study was to present and investigate axillary nerve injuries associated with sports. Methods. This study retrospectively reviewed 26 axillary nerve injuries associated with sports between the years 1985 and 2010. Preoperative status of the axillary nerve was evaluated by using the Louisiana State University Health Science Center (LSUHSC) grading system published by the senior authors. Intraoperative nerve action potential recordings were performed to check nerve conduction and assess the possibility of resection. Neurolysis, suture, and nerve grafts were used for the surgical repair of the injured nerves. In 9 patients with partial loss of function and 3 with complete loss, neurolysis based on nerve action potential recordings was the primary treatment. Two patients with complete loss of function were treated with resection and suturing and 12 with resection and nerve grafting. The minimum follow-up period was 16 months (mean 20 months). Results. The injuries were associated with the following sports: skiing (12 cases), football (5), rugby (2), base- ball (2), ice hockey (2), soccer (1), weightlifting (1), and wrestling (1). Functional recovery was excellent. Neurolysis was performed in 9 cases, resulting in an average functional recovery of LSUHSC Grade 4.2.

  • Electrodiagnosis of Brachial Plexopathies and Proximal Upper Extremity Neuropathies
    Electrodiagnosis of Brachial Plexopathies and Proximal Upper Extremity Neuropathies Zachary Simmons, MD* KEYWORDS Brachial plexus Brachial plexopathy Axillary nerve Musculocutaneous nerve Suprascapular nerve Nerve conduction studies Electromyography KEY POINTS The brachial plexus provides all motor and sensory innervation of the upper extremity. The plexus is usually derived from the C5 through T1 anterior primary rami, which divide in various ways to form the upper, middle, and lower trunks; the lateral, posterior, and medial cords; and multiple terminal branches. Traction is the most common cause of brachial plexopathy, although compression, lacer- ations, ischemia, neoplasms, radiation, thoracic outlet syndrome, and neuralgic amyotro- phy may all produce brachial plexus lesions. Upper extremity mononeuropathies affecting the musculocutaneous, axillary, and supra- scapular motor nerves and the medial and lateral antebrachial cutaneous sensory nerves often occur in the context of more widespread brachial plexus damage, often from trauma or neuralgic amyotrophy but may occur in isolation. Extensive electrodiagnostic testing often is needed to properly localize lesions of the brachial plexus, frequently requiring testing of sensory nerves, which are not commonly used in the assessment of other types of lesions. INTRODUCTION Few anatomic structures are as daunting to medical students, residents, and prac- ticing physicians as the brachial plexus. Yet, detailed understanding of brachial plexus anatomy is central to electrodiagnosis because of the plexus’ role in supplying all motor and sensory innervation of the upper extremity and shoulder girdle. There also are several proximal upper extremity nerves, derived from the brachial plexus, Conflicts of Interest: None.

ABSTRACT Leicester Medical School and GlenÞ eld Hospital, Leicester, UK. Purpose: Traditional teaching suggests that a safe deltoid split should extend no more than 5 cm from the lateral edge of the acromion. However, there are reports of nerves lying within this Correspondence: Mr Abhinav Gulihar distance. Our aim was to redeÞ ne the safe maximum split and also to study the inß uence of arm Department of Orthopedics, length and position. GlenÞ eld Hospital, Materials and Methods: Thirty cadaveric shoulders were dissected using the deltoid-splitting Leicester LE3 9QP UK. E-mail: [email protected] approach and the acromion-axillary nerve distance was measured in the neutral position, in abduction, and in adduction. This was correlated to upper arm length. Deltoid splits were measured at the end of 13 deltoid-splitting shoulder operations. Results: The mean acromion-axillary nerve distance was 6.0 cm (SD 0.6; range 4.5–6.5). Abduction brought the nerve closer by 1.5 cm. There was a strong correlation with upper arm length (r = 0.82) but the presence of high individual variability did not allow calculation of a safe deltoid split. The mean deltoid split in 13 open shoulder operations was 3.4 cm. Conclusions: Taking the mean acromion-axillary nerve distance minus three standard deviations as the safe deltoid split would protect 99.7% of nerves.

  • Study of Variations in the Origin and Distance of Origin of Axillary Nerve Ijcrr of the Posterior Cord of Brachial Plexus
    Original Article STUDY OF VARIATIONS IN THE ORIGIN AND DISTANCE OF ORIGIN OF AXILLARY NERVE IJCRR OF THE POSTERIOR CORD OF BRACHIAL PLEXUS Santosh M. Bhosale, Nagaraj S. Mallashetty Assistant Professor, Department of Anatomy, S.S.I.M.S & R.C, Davangere-577004, Karnataka, India. ABSTRACT Background: Variations in the origin of axillary nerve from the posterior cord of brachial plexus and its distance of origin from mid clavicular point are important during surgical approaches to the axilla and upper arm, administration of anesthetic blocks, interpreting effects of nervous compressions and in repair of plexus injuries. The patterns of branching show population differ- ences. Data from the South indian population is scarce. Objective: To describe the variations in the origin of the axillary nerve from the posterior cord of brachial plexus and its distance of origin from mid- clavicular point in the South Indian population. Materials and methods: Forty brachial plexuses from twenty formalin fixed cadavers were explored by gross dissection. Origin and order of branching of axillary nerve and its distance of origin from mid- clavicualr point was recorded. Representative pho- tographs were then taken using a digital camera (Sony Cybershot R, W200, 7.2 Megapixels). Results: In forty specimens studied, 87.5% of axillary nerve originated from the posterior cord of brachial plexus and in 12.5% of specimens axillary nerve took origin from common trunk along with thoracodorsal or lower subscapular nerve or both. In 32.5% of the specimens axillary nerve had origin from posterior cord of brachial plexus at a distance of 4.6-5.0cm from mid-clavicular point.
