| 21. | Attached fibrous tissue ( Struthers'ligament ) may compress the median nerve as it passes underneath the process.
|
| 22. | It is innervated by the median nerve.
|
| 23. | The median nerve arises from the cubital fossa and passes between the two heads of pronator teres.
|
| 24. | Long-term compression of the median nerve can inhibit nerve gliding, which may lead to injury and scarring.
|
| 25. | A branch to pronator teres may arise from the median nerve immediately proximal to the elbow joint.
|
| 26. | The anterior interosseous nerve is a motor branch of the median nerve, which arises just below the elbow.
|
| 27. | Electrodiagnosis rests upon demonstrating impaired median nerve conduction across the carpal tunnel in context of normal conduction elsewhere.
|
| 28. | The tunnel is bounded by the flexor group of forearm muscles and the median nerve pass through it.
|
| 29. | Carpal tunnel syndrome is the disability that results from the median nerve being pressed in the carpal tunnel.
|
| 30. | The median nerve gives off an articular branch in the upper arm as it passes the elbow joint.
