(1) 臂叢主要由第 C5~8 前支和第 T1 前支等 5 條神經根組成 ( five anterior rami of the spinal nerves ) ,經斜角肌間隙穿出,位於鎖骨下動脈後上方,經鎖骨後方進入腋窩。全長約 15 cm 。
(2)5 神經根 (root) 在第 1 肋骨附近形成 3 個幹 (trunk)( roots merge to form three trunks ) : C5~6 神經根組成上幹 (upper trunk) , C7 組成中幹 (middle trunk) , C8 ~T1 形成下幹 (lower trunk) 。
(3) trunk 又在鎖骨表面分別分出前後兩股 (division) ,每股長約 1cm ,共組成 6 個 divisions( Each trunk then splits in two, to form six divisions ) 。
(4) cord 在腋窩裡面分成內側束 (medial cord) 、後束 (posterior cord) 、外側束 (lateral cord) ,圍繞腋動脈的中段。
(5) cord 在喙突附近分為神經分支,形成終末神經 (terminal branch) 。
