An interactive questions and answers format was presented to number of academics and students at college of medical rehabilitation sciences. All academics and 90% of students reported that the newly introduced interactive teaching- learning model was helpful. It has been concluded that the interactive teaching- learning model is feasible and self- explanatory to be used and adopted by students and academics to facilitate the educational process.

Review of Superficial Veins in Arm The cephalic and basilic veins are the main superficial veins of the upper limb. They originate from the dorsal venous network on the dorsum of the hand. • The cephalic vein ascends along the anterolateral aspect of the forearm and arm. It then follows the superior border of the pectoralis major muscle to enter the deltopectoral triangle. It ultimately joins the axillary vein after passing through the clavipectoral fascia. • The basilic vein ascends along the medial forearm and the arm. In the arm, it passes deep to the brachial fascia where it courses in close proximity to the brachial artery and medial cutaneous nerve of the forearm along its path into the axilla.

  • Median Nerve Variation
    ISSN: 0975-8585 Research Journal of Pharmaceutical, Biological and Chemical Sciences Median Nerve Variation. M Kavimani1*, K Suba Anandhi2, and Christilda Felicia Jebakani3. 1Department of Anatomy, Sree Balaji Medical College and Hospital (Bharath university), Chrompet, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. 2Department of Anatomy, Indira Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Pondicheery, India. 3Department of Anatomy, Madras Medical College and Hospital, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India. ABSTRACT The median nerve is a nerve in humans and other animals in the upper limb. It is one of the five main nerves originating from the brachial plexus. The median nerve is formed from contributions from the lateral and medial cords of the brachial plexus, originating from ventral roots of C5, C6 & C7 (lateral cord) and C8 & T1 (medial cord). The present study was done by dissecting forearm and palm in the human cadaver available in the Institute of Anatomy, Madras medical college, Chennai. In the present study on 15 specimens of upper limb the accessory muscular branch to thenar muscles is seen in 20%. Of which in 10% the accessory branch to the thenar muscles is arising proximal to the flexor retinaculum from the main nerve trunk. In 5% the accessory branch to the thenar muscles is arising distal to the flexor retinaculum from the proper digital branch to the lateral sides of the thumb. Keywords: Recurrent muscular branch, flexor retinaculum, median nerve. *Corresponding author November - December 2014 RJPBCS 5(6) Page No. 805 ISSN: 0975-8585 INTRODUCTION The median nerve receives fibers from roots C6, C7, C8, T1 and sometimes C5 [1]. It is formed in the axilla by a branch from the medial and lateral chords of the brachial plexus, which are on either side of the axillary artery and fuse together to create the nerve anterior to the artery.

The syndrome can be combined with other skeletal anomalies: skull asymmetry, scoliosis, high shoulder blades, and cervi- cal ribs. Treatment of the syndrome is usually symptomatic; indications for surgical treatment are progressive neurological disorders and persistent pain syndrome, which usually develop due to instability of unblocked segments, or neurogenic pain. A clinical case of treatment of a 17-year-old patient with Klippel – Feil syndrome who developed a picture of severe upper limb monoparesis during three years due to compression of the brachial plexus associated with cervical ribs is presented. Decompression of the brachial plexus was performed, which led to rapid relief of pain syndrome and gradual partial regression of motor disorders. Due to incomplete restoration of the gripping func- tion, tendon-muscle plasty of the right hand was performed, which significantly improved the possibility of self-care. The results of radia- tion and staged neurophysiological studies are described, as well as a review of the literature on the Klippel – Feil syndrome.
