N. Ulnaris'in palmar bölgedeki dallarına ait bir varyasyon olgusu

52 yaşında bir erkek kadavranın sağ elinin diseksiyonu sırasında n. ulnaris'in elin palmar yüzünde verdiği uç dallara ait bir varyasyon tesbit edildi. Küçük parmağın ulnar tarafında seyreden n. digitalis palmaris proprius, n. ulnaris'in r. superficialis ve r. profundus'undan çıkan dalların birleşmesiyle oluşmaktaydı. R. profundus'tan çıkarak m. abductor digiti minimi'yi innerve eden sinirden ayrılan bir dal bu kasın içinden geçip yüzeyelleşmekte ve daha sonra r. superficialis'ten gelen dallarla birleşmekteydi.

A case of variation in the terminal Branches of the ulnar nerve

During the dissection of a 52 year old male cadaver's right hand a variation in the terminal branches of the ulnar nerve was observed in the palm of the hand. The medial proper palmar digital nerve to the little finger was formed by the branches separated from the superficial and the deep branches of the ulnar nerve. The branch given off by the nerve that arose from the deep branch of the ulnar nerve and innervating the abductor digiti minimi muscle pierced this muscle and passed through. Then, it connected with the branches from the superficial branch of the ulnar nerve.
