Order of branching	No	(%)
UTA(L)R	32	(42.7)
UTLAR	8	(10.7)
TA(UL)R	5	(6.7)
TC(UL)AR	3	(4.0)

Note: The nerve within the brackets originated from the nerve preceding them. For example, in UTA(L)R, lower subscapular nerve originated from Axillary nerve.

Others: TA(UL)R, T₁A(UL)T₂R, 2UA(LT)R, ULTAR, UT₁A(LT₂)R, 2UA(L)TR, UA(L)TR, 2ULA(T)R, T₁UT₂A(L)R, U₁T(U₂)LAR, UA(TL)R, Mcna and MCnfa

A number preceding a letter means there were two branches of the nerve represented by the letter.
