Abstract:
Objective To provide the anatomic base of the breast n erves for the regional surgery. Methods A total of 15 ca daveric specimens (30 sides) were dissected to observe the distribution of T 2~ T 6 laterial cutaneous branch of the anterior branch of intercostal nerves (LCA IN) and anterior cutaneous branch of the anterior branch of intercostal nerves ( ACAIN).Results The distances from the site of LCAIN perfo rating to the anterior middle one were gradually increased from T 2 to T 6, wh ile the diameters of the nerves were decreased. The sites of T 2~T 6 ACAIN wer e consistedt and situated 2.5 cm on the anterior middle line, which gradually de creased in diameter at the perforation sites. The skin and cutaneous tissues of the breast were segmentally overlapped by anterior branches of intercostal nerve s.Conclusions The nerve to breast includes superclavicula r nerve, breast branches of ACAIN and LCAIN. It is possible to block ACAIN and L CAIN to obtain analgetic effect.
