“…There are several mechanisms by which the median nerve may be compromised in the distal forearm. These include anomalous forearm muscle bellies and tendons, most commonly the palmaris longus muscle2, 5, 10, 21, 28; vascular anomalies, including a fibrovascular band17 and a thrombosed aneurysm in the distal forearm8; forearm fractures1, 11 or soft tissue trauma; and forearm intraneural tumors3 or cysts 27. Many of these conditions present with local forearm pain, swelling, or a palpable mass.…”

“…However construction of the muscle may cause compression on the median nerve since it passes between the fibers of the accessory head. So, information on such a variation is of importance for the differential diagnoses of the other compression causes such as enlarged veins (Braun & Spinner, 1991) or a fibrovascular band (Holtzman et al, 1986). Biceps brachii is without doubt a considerable component in plastic surgery (Muneuchi et al, 2004;Willcox et al, 2002; Har-Shai et al, 1998) but it is known that accessory heads of biceps brachii would be expandable and possibly has more value in flap surgery rather than the two main heads.…”
