Nervus musculocutaneus (C5-C7) separates from fasciculus lateralis plexus brachialis in axile.
Topography[edit | edit source]
- It breaks through musculus coracobrachialis (so we know it safely at autopsy).
- it gets on the arm between m. Biceps brachii and m. brachialis.
- On the forearm, cephalica antebrachii is added to the vein.
Innervation[edit | edit source]
Motor innervation of arm flexors[edit | edit source]
- m. coracobrachialis,
- m. biceps brachii,
- m. brachialis.
Sensitive inertia on the forearm[edit | edit source]
- As nervous cutaneus antebrachii lateralis sensitiously innerses the skin of the lateral half of the forearm.
