The extensor digitorum brevis manus is a supernumerary muscle of the dorsum of hand and is a relatively rare finding during dissection. Only 2-3% of the cases are found world wide. Here we report the case of extensor digitorum brevis manus in an approximately 65-year-old Indian male cadaver. This report discusses the variant anatomy, morphology, review of literature and clinical implications of this muscle. We believe that it is of importance to report the observation of this muscle as the variation reported herein should be of interest to clinicians, surgeons and anatomists for academic purposes.
手部指短伸肌是手背的额外肌肉，在解剖过程中相对少见。全球范围内仅2%-3%的病例有此发现。在此，我们报告一例约65岁印度男性尸体中的手部指短伸肌病例。本报告讨论了该肌肉的变异解剖结构、形态学、文献综述及临床意义。我们认为报告这一观察结果很重要，因为本文所报告的变异可能会引起临床医生、外科医生和解剖学家在学术方面的兴趣。
