OBJECTIVE: C8-dominant innervation of ulnar-innervated and T1-dominant innervation of median-innervated intrinsic hand muscles have been suggested, although less is known regarding forearm muscles. We aimed to determine myotomal innervation of the forearm muscles based on the clinical and electromyographial findings of patients with C8 or T1 lesions.
METHODS: Medical Research Council scale and EMG findings were retrospectively reviewed in 16 patients with C8 lesions (2 postmedian sternotomy C8 plexopathy and 14 C8 radiculopathy) and 9 patients with T1-dominant lesions (8 true neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome and 1 T1 radiculopathy).
RESULTS: Clinical and EMG findings revealed T1-dominant innervation of the flexor digitorum superficialis, flexor digitorum profundus of the index finger, abductor pollicis brevis, and flexor pollicis longus muscles, and C8-dominant innervation of the flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor digitorum profundus of the little finger, and digit extensors innervated by the posterior interosseous nerve. The first dorsal interosseous, and abductor digiti minimi muscles seem to be innervated by both C8 and T1 roots.
CONCLUSIONS: C8-dominant innervation of ulnar-innervated muscles and T1-dominant innervation of median-innervated muscles are also evident for forearm flexor muscles.
SIGNIFICANCE: Such an additional evidence for myotomal innervation will improve localization in clinical as well as electrophysiological diagnoses.
