Case description

The anterior interosseous nerve arises from the median nerve approximately 4-6 cm distal to the elbow, about one-third of the way down the forearm. It branches from the anterolateral aspect of the median nerve and courses between the radius and ulna along the interosseous membrane, running deep to the flexor digitorum profundus and flexor pollicis longus muscles.
