A study on the prevalence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle by magnetic resonance imaging()

OBJECTIVE: To analyze magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the elbow area to quantify the presence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle. METHODS: A total of 232 exams were analyzed; 218 were included, of which 141 were of men and 77, women. RESULTS: Presence of the muscle was observed in 29 cases (1...

description OBJECTIVE: To analyze magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the elbow area to quantify the presence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle. METHODS: A total of 232 exams were analyzed; 218 were included, of which 141 were of men and 77, women. RESULTS: Presence of the muscle was observed in 29 cases (13.3%), demonstrating that the presence of this muscle on images does not have a statistical correlation with the gender or age of the individual. CONCLUSION: The prevalence of the anconeus epitrochlearis muscle is variable, without a pattern of normality.
