About the Book
The brachial plexus is taught in this enhanced video book of the Human Anatomy Video Project series from nerve roots to trunks, divisions, cords and branches. The relationships of these structures to scalene muscles, axillary artery and upper extremity musculature is presented. Nerves along chest wall, long thoracic and thoracodorsal nerves, vulnerable to axillary node dissection are emphasized for their surgical vulnerability. Peripheral nerves and vasculature are discussed as they course along the arm and elbow joint.
