Recurrent Branch Of The Median Nerve
The recurrent branch of the median nerve is the branch of the median nerve which supplies the thenar muscles. It is also occasionally referred to as the thenar branch of the median nerve, or the thenar muscular branch of the median nerve. Anatomy Course It usually passes to the transverse carpal ligament. It ends in the opponens pollicis. Distribution In the thenar eminence, the recurrent branch of the median nerve provides motor innervation to: * opponens pollicis muscle * abductor pollicis brevis muscle * superficial part of flexor pollicis brevis muscle A separate, more proximal branch of the median nerve additionally provides motor innervation to the 1st and 2nd lumbricals of the hand. All other intrinsic muscles of the hand receive motor innervation via the ulnar nerve. Clinical significance The recurrent branch of the median nerve may be affected in carpal tunnel syndrome, or from its own separate peripheral neuropathies. Surgery The recurrent branch of th ...

Recurrent Branch Of The Radial
The radial recurrent artery arises from the radial artery immediately below the elbow. It ascends between the branches of the radial nerve, lying on the supinator muscle and then between the brachioradialis muscle and the brachialis muscle, supplying these muscles and the elbow-joint, and anastomosing with the terminal part of the profunda brachii The deep artery of arm (also known as deep brachial artery) is a large artery of the arm which arises from the brachial artery. It descends in the arm before ending by anastomosing with the radial recurrent artery. Structure Origin The deep ....
