Origin and Distribution of the Brachial Plexus in the African Giant Pouched Rat (Cricetomys gambianusWATERHOUSE, 1840)

Öz:
This study examined the origin and distribution of the brachial plexus in the African giant pouched rat. Ten adult animals(five males and five females) obtained from the wild wereused. Cotton blocks were soaked in 2% hydrogen peroxideand placed on the ventral roots of the plexuses to facilitatevisualization and tracing. The brachial plexus primarily originated from the caudal branch of the ventral ramus of cervicalnerve 5 (C5), ventral ramus of cervical nerve 6 (C6), cervicalnerve 7 (C7), cervical nerve 8 (C8), and cranial branch of theventral ramus of first thoracic nerve (T1). The cranial trunkwas formed by the caudal branch of the ventral ramus of C5and the ventral ramus of C6; two branches originating fromC6 were bound to the cranial part of C7 to form the middletrunk, while the caudal trunk was formed by the ventral ramusof C7, C8, and T1. The peripheral nerve trunks and their respective spinal nerve origin (in parenthesis) were cranial pectoral(C5–C6), suprascapular (C5–C6), cranial subscapular (C5–C7),caudal subscapular (C6–C7), axillary (C6–C7), musculocutaneous (C7–C8), median (C6–T1), radial (C7–T1), ulna (C7–T1), thoracodorsal (C6–T1), long thoracic (C7–T1), and lateral thoracic(C8–T1). To summarize, the peripheral nerves of the brachialplexus displayed some differences when compared with otherrodents.
