A well-developed anomalous muscle within the forearm flexor compartment was discovered during a routine cadaveric dissection. The identified muscle originated from the intercompartmental septum on the medial side of the forearm just proximal to the wrist joint and inserted on the proximal phalanx of

In daily practice, accessory peroneal nerves (APNs) are detected in less than the 18-25% of legs, as revealed by systematic searches. In one APN case, compound muscle action potential cartography showed that the APN was only apparent when the recording electrode was placed over a small lateral regio
During the superficial dissection of the pectoral region and the arm, an abnormal biceps brachii muscle was observed unilaterally. This muscle had three heads. Whereas the short and long heads had their normal origin, the accessory head originated from the anterior surface of the distal part of the
The authors describe a supernumerary muscle in each orbit of an elderly male subject. There appear to be no previous reports of this muscle; most reports of anomalies of extraocular muscles describe hypoplasia or aplasia. Thirty-five formalin-fixed cadavers assigned to medical students for dissectio
