Posterior Interosseous Nerve
Abstract
The posterior interosseous nerve may pass over instead of perforating the supinator muscle. It may supply the anconeus muscle, extensor carpi radialis brevis (36% of cases), and the opposed surfaces of the middle and index fingers. The posterior and anterior interosseous nerves sometimes communicate.
