The knowledge of communications between musculocutaneous and median nerves is also important in the anterior approach for the fracture of the humerus and regional nerve blocks&#13;
Methods: Cadaveric study was carried out on 100 upper limbs by using 50 embalmed cadavers to find out the communication between median and musculocutaneous nerve&#13;
Results: out of 100 upperlimbs, the variation was found in 2 specimens.&#13;
Conclusion: The occurrence of such type of communication is clinically important for surgeons and anesthetists to perform pain management Therapies in related to the upper limb.&#13;
