Question

Teres major is supplied by which nerve

Answer 1

The Teres major muscle is innervated by the Lower Subscapular Nerve.

Answer 2

The lower subscapular nerve originates from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, specifically from spinal nerve roots C5 and C6. Understanding this nerve supply is crucial for clinical examination of shoulder function, surgical planning in the axillary region, diagnosing nerve injuries affecting shoulder movement, and understanding patterns of muscle weakness in neurological conditions.
