Q

Radial Nerve

A

Passes in the radial groove on the back of the humerus with the deep brachial artery (profunda brachii a.), pierces the lateral intermuscular septum, and divides into superficial and deep branches in front of the lateral epicondyle.

In the arm, gives branches to triceps, brachioradialis, and supplies the skin of the posterior arm & forearm (posterior brachial, inferior lateral brachial, and posterior antebrachial cutaneous nerves).

56
Q

Musclocutaneous

A

Pierces the coracobrachialis muscle; innervates the coracobrachialis, biceps, and brachialis muscles.

Injury causes great loss of flexion of the elbow, although not complete due to brachioradialis and flexor forearm muscles.

Continues as the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve

57
Q

No branches in the arm.
