Biceps brachii muscle (Musculus biceps brachii) The biceps brachii muscle is one of the chief muscles of the arm. The origin at the scapula and the insertion into the radius of the biceps brachii means it can act on both the shoulder joint and the elbow joint, which is why this muscle...

Biceps brachii is one of the greatest variable muscles of the human body in terms of origin. Muscle principally originated by the two heads namely long and short. The long head originates from the supraglenoid tubercle of scapula whereas the short head originates from the tip of the coracoid...

Introduction: Normally the biceps brachii arises by two heads. The anatomical variations of number of heads of biceps brachii which may be innervated by either musculocutaneous nerve or median nerve or both are most common. The knowledge of these anatomical variations is important for general surgeon...
The biceps brachii muscle is the muscle situated in the flexor compartment of the arm. It is known to show variations in the number of heads of its origin. This study was performed to evaluate the variations in the origin of the biceps brachii muscle.Dr. Mrudula Chandrupatla...
Several anatomic variations in the origin of the long head of the biceps brachii have been observed. Some of these anomalies have been implicated as having a role in rotator cuff tendinopathy or in exposure for shoulder surgery. We are reporting the observation that the long head of the biceps...
