Variability of the pronator teres muscle and its clinical significance
Original language description
While investigating the cause of entrapment syndrome of the peripheral nerves in the elbow region, we observed variability of t he pronator teres muscle and the relationship of this muscle to the median nerve and the surrounding vessels. Attention was also paid to th e occurrence of the supracondylar process of the humerus and Struthers? ligament with regard to their ontogenetic and phylogenetic development. For this purpose, a classical anatomical dissection of the upper limbs of 68 adults, three fetuses and a phylogenetic assessment of five mammalian species was performed. In terms of variability in the anatomical structures of the elbow region, we found the most serious clin ical condition to be where the median nerve ran through the pronator canaltogether with the ulnar vessels (1.5%), or when it passed through t he ulnar head of the pronator teres (5.9%). The pronator teres examined by us in fetuses showed the same arrangement as in adult individ uals, including the created ulnar
