Brief Explanations
- The brachial plexus is a network of nerves formed by the anterior rami of the lower four cervical nerves (C5 - C8) and the first thoracic nerve (T1).
- It gives rise to nerves that innervate the pectoral girdle (such as the subscapular nerves) and the upper limbs (such as the axillary nerve, radial nerve, median nerve, and ulnar nerve).
- The lumbar plexus innervates the anterior and lateral abdominal wall, external genitals, and part of the lower limbs.
- The sacral plexus innervates the buttocks, perineum, and most of the lower limbs.
- The cervical plexus innervates the muscles of the neck and the skin of the head, neck, and upper chest.
