Two cases report of brachial plexus injury in laparoscopic colorectal surgery.
Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2013Co-Authors: Min-young No, Jae Moon Shin, Won-jun ChoiAbstract:The brachial plexus is structurally vulnerable to damage because it is fixed at the cervical vertebra, pre-cervical Fascia, and Axillary Fascia while it extends longitudinally on the surface layer [1]. Causative factors for brachial plexus injury (BPI) during surgery are patients' comorbidity, anatomical malformation, operative factors such as intra-operative postures, operation time, and median sternotomy, and physiological factors such as hypotension and hypothermia. In particular, the Trendelenburg position, which is necessary for laparoscopic and robotic abdominal surgery, may act as a risk factor. We experienced two cases of BPI following colorectal surgery in the Trendelenburg position.

Brachioplasty with superficial Fascial system suspension.
Plastic and reconstructive surgery, 1995Co-Authors: Ted LockwoodAbstract:Although significant innovations in brachioplasty occurred in the 1970s, it remains an unpopular procedure. Current brachioplasty techniques are somewhat unpredictable and are commonly associated with significant untoward results. Recent anatomic studies demonstrate that in youth the posteromedial arm soft tissues are firmly suspended to a tough yet dynamic Fascial system sling that ultimately gains its strength from the clavicular periosteum by means of the clavipectoral and Axillary Fasciae. Loosening of the connections of the arm superficial Fascial system to the Axillary Fascia, as well as relaxation of the Axillary Fascia itself, with age, weight fluctuations, and gravitational pull yields a loose hammock effect, resulting in significant ptosis of the posteromedial arm. On the basis of this anatomic concept, the brachioplasty procedure was modified to provide secure anchoring of the arm flap to the Axillary Fascia along with strong superficial Fascial system repair of incisions, reducing the risk of widening or migration of scars and unnatural contours. Five patients having brachioplasty with or without liposuction were followed for 6 to 12 months. The primary indication for surgery is moderate to severe skin laxity of the arms with or without associated arm fat deposits. Results were consistent, and complications were limited.

Variations of the musculoFascial Axillary arch with the adjacent lymph nodes
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2020Co-Authors: Pil-woo KimAbstract:Purpose This unique case gives the extent of knowledge in the axilla area with Axillary arch (AA) and a discussion of its clinical importance. Materials and method The anatomical anomaly was found during the dissection class for the brachial plexus. It was identified through the precise dissection of the structures bilaterally. Results The cadaver had Fascial and muscular AA bilaterally. The Fascial AA was separated into the superficial and deep arch group. The superficial arch group connected to the clavipectoral Fascia and the Axillary Fascia. The deep arch group attached to the subscapular Fascia. The muscular AA had superficial and deep variations. The superficial muscular AA attached between accessory slip of latissimus dorsi muscle (LDa) and pectoralis quartus muscle (PQ). The deep muscular AA attached to the crest of lesser tubercle of the humerus from LDa. The adipose tissue with the level one central lymph node was located lateral to the pectoralis minor muscle expand from pectoral lymph node through between LDa and PQ. Conclusion This case showed the Fascial and muscular AA together. The muscular AA had both complete and incomplete attachment types. It could give functional and neurological problems in the axilla, such as thoracic outlet syndrome. Additionally, the structures presented with the Axillary lymph node. It helps to understand the patient’s condition with the AA in the axilla and could provide.
