“…This anatomical variation was first described in 1801 by Bichat. It was later also reported by Froment in 1846, Rauber in 1865, Shevkunenko in 1949 and Spinner in 1978 [8,39]. The one who proposed the name for this nerve was Spinner [39].…”

“…This nerve contains sensory, motor and proprioceptive fibers. Motor fibers prevail in it [6][7][8]. It provides motor supply to the supinator muscle, extensor carpi radialis brevis, extensor carpi ulnaris, extensor indicis, extensor digiti minimi, abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis longus and brevis [3,7,9,10].…”

“…It also supplies sensory input to the carpal joints: radiocarpal, midcarpal, and second, third, fourth carpometacarpal joint [6,10,[12][13][14]. It should be noted that this nerve does not provide sensory innervation of the skin [8,15]. The deep branch of the radial nerve (DBRN), supplying deep muscles of the posterior compartment muscles of the forearm, is formed at the division of the radial nerve about 46 mm proximal to the arcade of Frohse (AF) and 8 cm distal from the lateral intermuscular septum of the arm [1].…”

“…The Froment-Rauber nerve is a rare variant of the terminal branches of the PIN or superficial branch of the radial nerve. This nerve innervates one or less commonly, several dorsal interossei muscles of the hand [8,39,40]. The Froment-Rauber nerve does not have a uniform course for itself.…”

The radial nerve arises from the brachial plexus posterior cord from roots C5-Th1. It divides into two terminal branches: superficial and deep. The superficial branch is mostly sensory. From the deep branch arises the posterior interosseous nerve of the forearm. The deep branch of the radial nerve passes through the arcade of Frohse. The arcade of Frohse begins in the apex of the lateral epicondyle of the humerus and is attached to its medial part. It is the highest, proximal part of the supinator muscle, which may have a tendinous or membranous structure. Significant topographic points that are useful in describing the posterior interosseous nerve of the forearm are the radial channel and arcade of Frohse. There exists the anatomical variation of the distal part of the posterior interosseous nerve of the forearm. It is called the Froment-Rauber nerve. Posterior interosseous nerve of forearm dysfunction leads to radial nerve syndrome. There are two different syndromes which are associated with posterior interosseous nerve of forearm dysfunction: radial tunnel syndrome and posterior interosseous nerve syndrome. These syndromes are distinguished on the basis of characteristic symptoms. StreszczenieNerw promieniowy pochodzi z pęczka tylnego splotu ramiennego z korzeni C5-Th1. Dzieli się na dwie końcowe gałęzie: powierzchowną i głęboką. Powierzchowna gałąź jest głównie czuciowa. Z gałęzi głębokiej odchodzi nerw międzykostny tylny przedramienia. Gałąź głęboka nerwu promieniowego przechodzi przez tzw. arkadę Frohsa. Rozpoczyna się w części szczytowej nadkłykcia bocznego kości ramiennej i rozciąga się, przyczepiając się do jego przyśrodkowej części. Jest to najwyższa, proksymalna część mięśnia odwracacza, która może mieć charakter ścięgnisty lub błoniasty. Istotnymi punktami topograficznymi przydatnymi w opisie nerwu międzykostnego tylnego przedramienia są kanał promieniowy i arkada Frohsa. Istnieje zmienność anatomiczna dystalnej części nerwu międzykostnego tylnego przedramienia. Jest to tak zwany nerw Fromenta-Raubera. Dysfunkcja nerwu międzykostnego tylnego przedramienia prowadzi do zespołu nerwu promieniowego. Istnieją dwa różne zespoły związane z dysfunkcją nerwu międzykostnego tylnego przedramienia: zespół kanału promieniowego i zespół nerwu międzykostnego tylnego. Zespoły te wyróżnia się na podstawie charakterystycznych objawów.

“…Although it was described by Bichat (1802), the communication is commonly referred to as the Froment-Rauber anastomosis (although Spinner suggested adding Bichat's name; Spinner 1978). Lesions of the radial nerve have produced wasting of the first webspace (Kamerath et al 2013) or clawing of the third through fifth digits (Guo et al 2011).…”
