Bilateral reversed palmaris longus muscle: a rare anatomical variation.
We report a case of bilateral reversed palmaris longus muscle (PLM). The muscle was tendinous in its upper portion and muscular in its lower portion in both arms. This rare variation has been mentioned only once in the literature as a surgical finding. According to the literature, a reversed PLM may cause a compartment syndrome in the wrist area, carpal tunnel, and Guyon's syndrome. The des...
متن کاملReversed palmaris longus muscle: a report of two cases

متن کاملPalmaris Longus Muscle’s Prevalence in Different Nations and Interesting Anatomical Variations: Review of the Literature
The prevalence of the palmaris longus (PL) muscle varies more than any other muscle in the human body. Its absence across the world ranges between 1.5% and 63.9%. It presents with many different anomalies, discovered either clinically, intraoperatively or after anatomical examination of cadavers. This paper includes recent studies and reports about the presence and variations of the PL muscle, ...
متن کاملA Case of the Bilateral Duplicate Palmaris Longus Muscles Coupled with the Palmaris Profundus Muscle
The palmaris longus muscle is one of the most variable muscles in human anatomy. During a routine anatomical dissection for medical students at Tottori University, we found duplicate palmaris longus muscles in the bilateral forearms together with the palmaris profundus muscle in the right forearm. The bilateral aberrant palmaris longus muscles were observed at the ulnar side of the palmaris lon...
