Abstract

Variations of the musculocutaneous nerve (MC) are not common. In normal individuals the musculocutaneous nerve is the terminal branch of the lateral cord of the brachial plexus. The present paper is to document the variation in the musculocutaneous nerve (MC) which the authors encountered during the routine dissection. In the routine postgraduate dissection, it was found that the lateral root of median nerve gave a muscular branch to the coracobrachialis muscles and musculocutaneous nerve got originate from the ulnar nerve which supply the biceps brachii and brachialis muscles. Knowledge of these variations is important to the anatomists, orthopedicians, neurologist and anaesthetist.
