(A) Photograph of the right axilla and the upper arm, 3: deep brachial artery, 4: superficial brachial artery, 6a, 6b: 1st and 2nd branch of the lateral thoracic artery, i: musculocutaneous nerve, ii: median nerve, iii: ulnar nerve, iv: intercostobrachial nerve and v: radial nerve, **: double anastomosis.
