A

Musculocutaneous nerve

Axillary nerve

Radial nerve

Median nerve

101
Q

Why is there a C8 nerve but no C8 vertebrae?

A

In the cervical spine, the nerve roots are named after the vertebrae that lies below them.

Thoracic and lumbar nerve roots are named after the vertebrae above them

So, there is no C7, but since C8 lies above T1, it is called C8

A
  1. Subclavian artery becomes the Axillary artery at the lateral border of the 1st rib.
