## Abstract A recent cadaver study described that 25% of the superficial radial nerves (SRN) investigated sent a contributing nerve branch into the first dorsal interosseous (1DI) muscle. This high degree of anatomical variation was unexpected, as the 1DI muscle is typically viewed as receiving its

Abstract
Regeneration of the radial nerve following a new technique of nerve anastomosis in the humeral spiral groove is reported. Neurorrhaphy was performed by anastomosing a branch supplying the medial head of the triceps to the distal cut end of the radial nerve at the level of the lateral intermuscular septum. The progress of the nerve is detailed and has been confirmed by electromyographic studies showing regeneration of the radial nerve 3 years after operation and 4 years after injury. This technique for repair of the radial nerve has not been previously described.

In order to avoid injury to the marginal mandibular branch of the facial nerve during surgery in the face and neck, a simple method for locating this branch was devised. The anatomical relations between the marginal mandibular nerve and both the facial artery and vein were analyzed in 19 dissection
