    Supraclavicular nerves (yellow) Axillary nerve (blue). Also Superior lateral cutaneous nerve of arm. Inferior lateral cutaneous nerve of arm - Near blue "axillary" area, but actually branches from radial nerve. Most modern sources distinguish the superior and inferior, but some still include a single "lateral brachial cutaneous nerve".

  4. Thenar eminence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thenar_eminence

    The ulnar nerve is exclusively responsible for the innervations of the hypothenar eminence. Both nerves contribute to the innervations of the midpalmar group. [8] The innervation of these muscles by the median nerve is unusual, as most of the intrinsic muscles on the palm of the hand are supplied by the ulnar nerve.

  5. Arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arm_innervation

    This nerve continues in the arm, travelling in a plane between the biceps and triceps muscles. At the cubital fossa, this nerve is deep to the pronator teres muscle and is the most medial structure in the fossa. The nerve passes into the forearm. The ulnar nerve, origin C8-T1, is a continuation of the medial cord of the brachial plexus.

  6. Medial cutaneous nerve of arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_cutaneous_nerve_of_arm

    It passes through the axilla, at first lying behind, and then medial to the axillary vein, and communicates with the intercostobrachial nerve.. It descends along the medial side of the brachial artery to the middle of the arm, where it pierces the deep fascia, and is distributed to the skin of the back of the lower third of the arm, extending as far as the elbow, where some filaments are lost ...

  7. Brachial plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachial_plexus

    The brachial plexus is a network of nerves (nerve plexus) formed by the anterior rami of the lower four cervical nerves and first thoracic nerve (C5, C6, C7, C8, and T1).This plexus extends from the spinal cord, through the cervicoaxillary canal in the neck, over the first rib, and into the armpit, it supplies afferent and efferent nerve fibers to the chest, shoulder, arm, forearm, and hand.

  8. Magnetic resonance neurography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_neurography

    The most significant impact of magnetic resonance neurography is on the evaluation of the large proximal nerve elements such as the brachial plexus (the nerves between the cervical spine and the underarm that innervate shoulder, arm and hand), [9] the lumbosacral plexus (nerves between the lumbosacral spine and legs), the sciatic nerve in the pelvis, [10] as well as other nerves such as the ...

  9. Posterior cutaneous nerve of arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_cutaneous_nerve...

    The posterior cutaneous nerve of arm (internal cutaneous branch of musculospiral, posterior brachial cutaneous nerve) is a branch of the radial nerve that provides sensory innervation for much of the skin on the back of the arm. It arises in the axilla.
