The axilla is a region of clinical and surgical importance with plenty of anatomical variations. One of these is the presence of accessory muscles. The literature was reviewed in order to identify the different supernumerary muscles that are described in the axilla. Variant muscle slips arising from the pectoral muscle or latissimus dorsi muscle have been described. There still remains controversy regarding the phylogenetic origin of these different muscles. We described the most frequently reported muscles, their origin, and course. Further research is required regarding the innervation and influence on glenohumeral and scapulothoracic kinematics.
腋窝是一个在临床和外科方面具有重要意义的区域,存在大量解剖变异。其中之一是副肌的存在。为了识别腋窝中描述的不同额外肌肉,对文献进行了综述。已经描述了起源于胸肌或背阔肌的变异肌束。关于这些不同肌肉的系统发育起源仍存在争议。我们描述了最常报道的肌肉、它们的起源和走行。关于神经支配以及对盂肱关节和肩胛胸壁运动学的影响,还需要进一步研究。
