Peer Review Status: Internally Peer Reviewed


"In this case the nerve sheaths have not been dissected off the posterior cord, but the outer cord has been dissected to show the origin of the nerve to the coraco-brachialis from 7-8 C. Note the small size of 5 C., and also the fine recurrent branch which leaves the accessory outer head of the median, and perforates the inner head of the median to form the outer head of the uInar. "

From Harris, W. The true form of the brachial plexus, and its motor distribution. J. Anat. Physiol. 38:399-422, 1904.
