Abstract
Location of radial nerve relative to lateral humerus was studied using US scanner in
17 volunteers (7 men, 10 women) aged 19-54 years. Conditional humerus length (acromion-olecranon distance) ranged from 31 to 39 cm. Radial nerve transacted lateral humeral diaphysis 11.3±1.9 cm (from 8 to 15 cm) proximal to lateral humeral epicondyle. Distance between lateral humeral epicondyle to radial nerve made up 31.9% of humerus conditional length. Awareness of obtained data may be helpful at performance of surgical intervention on the humerus.
