3) through ____ canal ___ to ____ bone
4) enters ___ and supplies most of the ___ muscles
1) posterior to medial epicondyle
2) medial forearm under flexi carpi ulnaris (or lateral to it)
3) Guyon’s canal lateral to pisiform bone
4) hand intrinsic
the median nerve runs through which muslce that has 2 attachments? then between which 2 muscles. then runs under what
1) pronator teres
2) between flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus
3) deep to flexor retinaculum
radial artery and brachioradialis relationship
radial artery runs under or medial to it
anterior interossesous nerve and artery compared to pronator quadratus
they run deep to the muscle
