Summary

Blocking the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve (MACN) during an axillary block often a subcutaneous wheal of local anesthetics is made what is described as painful. With the improvement of the resolution of the ultrasound machines smaller structures and nerves can be visable. In this study topographic assessment will made of the anatomical variation of the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve (MACN) by ultrasound in the axilla and 5 cm above the cubital fossa of the arm.
