Abstract:
Marinacci or reverse Martin-Gruber communication is a rare anatomical variation. Until now, in all reported cases the branch was diagnosed using electrophysiological studies but not substantiated anatomically. The authors report a case of ulnar-median nerve communication in the distal forearm that was discovered during carpal tunnel release surgery and confirmed postoperatively on electromyographic studies.
