Superficial Portion of Abductor Pollicis Brevis Muscle, Morphological Study and Literature Review: Case Report
Abductor pollicis brevis muscle (APB) belongs to the foreground of the subfascial muscle thenar region, which is of great importance in the movement of the thumb on its two-joint arrangement. In this article, we report the presence of a superficial portion of the APB muscle and its relationship and discuss the available literature and the clinical implications of the presence of this variation.
