Innervation by Posterior Cord


Radial Nerve (largest branch)

Course: Through arm, around humerus, around lateral


epicondyle, then divides

Innervates: all posterior muscles of arm and forearm


Triceps brachii, anconeus, supinator, brachioradialis

Divides in forearm:
Superficial = skin of arm and dorsolateral surface of hand
Deep = extensor muscles of forearm (eg E. carpi radialis L + B)

Damage to Radial Nerve = wristdrop


Inability to extend the hand, st inability to fully extend forearm

Innervation by Posterior Cord (continued)


Axillary Nerve (runs w/ caudal humeral circumflex a.)

Innervates:
Deltoid and Teres minor (motor inn)
Capsule of shoulder, skin of shoulder (sensory inn)

Subscapular Nerve {branches of C5 + C6 rami}

Innervates: Subscapularis, Teres major

Thoracodorsal Nerve (runs w/thoracodorsal a+v)

Innervates: Latissimus dorsi

Innervation by Lateral Cord


Musculocutaneous

Course: branches to arm, distal to elbow becomes


cutaneous for lateral forearm skin
Innervates
Biceps brachii, brachialis, coracobrachialis (motor inn)
Skin distal to elbow (sensory)

Suprascapular (runs w/suprascapular a+v) {C5, C6}

Innervates: Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus

Innervation by both Lateral and


Medial Cords
Median

Course: middle of brachial plexus, does not branch in arm, distal


to elbow provides many branches to most forearm flexors, passes
through carpal tunnel to hand to lateral palmar intrinsics

Innervates: most muscles of anterior forearm (motor inn)


(eg) most flexors, some intrinsics (thumb)

Innervates: skin of lateral 2/3 hand on palm side,


dorsum of fingers 2+3 (sensory inn)
Nerve Damage = Ape Hand
Inability to Oppose Thumb

Innervation by Medial Cord


Ulnar

Course: runs along medial side of arm, behind medial


epicondyle, superficial to carpal tunnel into hand,
branches to supply intrinsics and skin

Innervates:
FCU and part of FDP, most intrinsics (motor inn)
Skin of medial 2/3 of hand A+P (sensory inn)

Nerve Damage: Clawhand


Inability to extend fingers at interphalangeal joints,
results in permanent flexion = claw
