"An Unusual Variety of the Extensor Digiti Muscles: Report with Notes on Repetition Strain Injuries". In over 500 human cadaveric dissections of arms and forearms, performed to the present date, we find frequent anatomical variations, corresponding to classic descriptions. Last year, we found a singular anatomic variation of the extensor muscles of the forearm, which seems previously undescribed. It is our strong belief that gross anatomy studies, and gross dissection should be updated and reintro (2013): https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/?term=23815846.
