Incidence of Palmaris Longus Muscle Absence in Nigerian Population

Alot has been reported about variation of palmaris longus muscle in journals and conventional textbooks. The incidence of palmaris longus muscle absence among people of the six geo-political zones of Nigeria was evaluated using 600 subjects. 31.25% (187 subjects) lack palmaris longus muscleon either...
