In 16 out of 79 cadavers 22 communications were found between the musculocutaneous and median nerves. In six subjects they were present bilaterally. There were three types, based on the sites of communication. Type I: The communication was proximal to the entrance of the musculocutaneous nerve into coracobrachialis (9/22); Type II: The communication was distal to the muscle (10/22); Type III: The nerve as well as the communicating branch did not pierce the muscle (3/22). Bilateral communications were not necessarily of the same type. The possible clinical implications of these communications (relating either to the surgical approach to the shoulder joint, or to entrapment syndromes) are discussed.
在79具尸体中的16具上，发现肌皮神经与正中神经之间存在22处交通支。在6例受试者中，双侧均有交通支。根据交通支的位置，可分为三种类型。I型：交通支位于肌皮神经进入肱二头肌短头的近端（9/22）；II型：交通支位于该肌的远端（10/22）；III型：神经及其交通支均未穿过该肌（3/22）。双侧交通支不一定属于同一类型。文中讨论了这些交通支可能的临床意义（与肩关节手术入路或卡压综合征有关）。
