  • Title: Myelinated fibers of the deep branch of the ulnar nerve at the wrist in bonnet monkeys (Macaca radiata) and some of its branches to the hand.
    Author: Devanandan MS, Ghosh S, Simoes EA.
    Journal: Anat Rec; 1980 Aug; 197(4):387-96. PubMed ID: 7212292.
    Abstract:
    In order to estimate the peripheral nervous correlates concerning the motor performance of the hand, the myelinated fibers of the deep ulnar nerve and some of its branches to the intrinsic muscles of the monkey (Macaca radiata) hand have been enumerated and their caliber spectra plotted. The content of the myelinated sensory fibers in the deep ulnar nerve was found to be 70% of the total. This high figure is attributable to the fact that 25-50% of the myelinated fibers in the deep ulnar nerve are destined to innervate the joints of the hand. Approximately 50% of the myelinated fibers in nerves to the intrinsic muscles of the hand were sensory.
