musculocutaneousadj.

Brit.

/ˌmʌskjᵿləʊkjᵿˈteɪnɪəs/, U.S.

/ˈˌməskjəloʊˌkjuˈteɪniəs/

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding; modelled on a Latin lexical item. Etymons: musculo- comb. form, cutaneous adj.

Etymology: < musculo- comb. form + cutaneous adj., after scientific Latin musculo-cutaneus (1726 or earlier).

Anatomy.

1. Of a nerve or blood vessel: supplying both muscles and skin; spec. designating a branch of the brachial plexus that supplies the biceps and brachialis muscles of the arm and continues as the lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm.

1788 Encycl. Brit. I. 716 (note) This muscle [sc. coraco brachialis] affords a passage to the musculo-cutaneous nerve.

1835–6 Todd's Cycl. Anat. & Physiol. I. 148/2 The musculo-cutaneous nerve.

1857 R. Dunglison Med. Lexicon (rev. ed.) 614/1 Two musculocutaneous nerves—superior and inferior—proceed from the first lumbar.

1886 Proc. Royal Soc. 41 426 Below these branches the 7th [cervical nerve] joins the 5th and 6th, thus forming the outer cord, which bifurcates into the musculo-cutaneous and the outer head of the median.

1910 Encycl. Brit. I. 942/2 On the dorsum of the foot the musculo-cutaneous nerve may be seen through the skin in thin people when the toes are depressed.

1978 Ann. Plastic Surg. 1 372 The skin of the longer flap is supplied by large perforating musculocutaneous arteries.

2000 Paediatric Anaesthesia 10 35 Selective block of the musculocutaneous nerve is recommended when a surgical procedure takes place in this territory.

2. Consisting of, relating to, or affecting muscle and skin.
