Abstract

The brachial plexus is positioned in neck and axilla. It is a systematic plexus of nerves innervating majority of the structure of upper limb. During routine dissection in practical class of undergraduate year 1 students, a link was noticed in lateral cord and medial root of brachial plexus was noticed in right sided upper limb. The orthopedican, surgeons and anesthesiologist should be well informed regarding this type of variation of brachial plexus while performing any procedures.
