“…Kang et al (2014) studied the nerve composition and found that more than half of the cases originated from C5 and C6. Another study investigated the surrounding structure on quadrangular space, TM and deltoid muscles using metric methods.…”

SUMMARY:The aim of this study was to elucidate the injection point on the teres minor (TM) for effective injection. Thirty-two specimens from 16 adult Korean cadavers (10 males and 6 females, age ranging from 42 to 102 years) were used in the study. The reference line between the inferior point on the inferior angle of the scapula (IA) and the most prominent point on the acromial angle of the scapula (AA) on the surface were identified. The measurements expressed the two above-mentioned parameters as X and Y coordinates in relation to the reference line. The X coordinate was located at 128.1±10.4 mm (78.1±5.7 %) and the Y coordinate was located at 25.3±7.6 mm (15.5±4.8 %). The recommended site according to this can be used for injections in patients with TM stiffness.

“…The axillary nerve originates from the anterior branches of the C5-C6 spinal nerves and contributions from C4 and C7 have been described (Hur et al, 2011). The frequency varies from 13.3 % to 48.8 % for C4 and in 20 % to 56.2 % of cases, the axillary nerve may present contribution from C7 (Kang et al, 2014;Lee et al, 2016), so a traumatic injury to one of these branches can also affect the trophism of the deltoid and teres minor muscles, as well as proprioception, because the glenohumeral joint has articular branches coming from the axillary nerve, mainly from C6 (Lee et al, 2016).…”

The updating of anatomical terms is essential to facilitate teaching and learning as well as international communication through publications and presentations at scientific events. In the posterior wall of the axilla, the teres major, teres minor and triceps brachii muscles form three spaces through which neurovascular structures of clinical significance run. The current study seeks to define and propose terms for these spaces which have been omitted by Terminologia Anatomica. The definition of the Latin term 'Spatium' was investigated using A Latin Dicionary, while the term 'Espacio' was analyzed using Diccionario panhispánico de términos médicos (Real Academia Nacional de Medicina de España, 2023), as well as the lexemes of the words 'scapula' and 'humerus', for which the Diccionario Médico-

Spinal nerve composition and innervation of the axillary nerve

Abstract: These findings may be helpful to diagnose damage to axillary nerve structures that occur in such injuries as humerus fractures.
