Compression of Brachial Vein between Two Lateral Roots of Median Nerve - A Case Report

During gross anatomy dissection, variation in the formation of median nerve of the upper limb was discovered in the right upper extremity of a 57-year-old male cadaver. Three roots contributed to the formation of median nerve instead of usual two roots i.e. two lateral roots and one medial root. Aft...
