Anotace

V originále

Pain in the cubital region and in the proximal part of the forearm may be caused by compression of the median nerve by passing between two heads of the pronator teres muscle (pronator syndrome). The most frequent cause is hypertrophy of the muscle during its professional overloading. Factors which are predisposing the origin of the entrapment syndrome of the median nerve may be deviations of anatomical structures of this region. 68 anatomical preparations of upper limbs with focus on the variability of the pronator teres muscle and with regards to the course of the median nerve were made and studied due to this. The occurrence of supracondylar process and Struther’s ligament were monitored at the same time, as these variable structures may also contribute to the entrapment of the median nerve.
