It has for some time appeared probable that the spinal nerves which form the brachial plexus do not become confounded one with another, but retain each its separate course and its separate functions. To the naked eye a nerve is a bundle of parallel threads bound together, and at the same time divided by a sheath of connective tissue. It seemed to me possible that the course of the spinal nerve roots could be traced by a dissection which should follow each through the plexus to the nerves which branch therefrom, and in these to its final destination.

✓ An epispinal system of motor axons virtually covers the ventral and lateral funiculi of the human conus medullaris between the L-2 and S-2 levels. These nerve fibers apparently arise from motor cells of the ventral horn nuclei and join spinal nerve roots caudal to their level of origin. In all observed spinal cords, many of these axons converged at the cord surface and formed an irregular group of ectopic rootlets that could be visually traced to join conventional spinal nerve roots at one to several segments inferior to their original segmental level; occasional rootlets joined a dorsal nerve root. As almost all previous reports of nerve root interconnections involved only the dorsal roots and have been cited to explain a lack of an absolute segmental sensory nerve distribution, it is believed that these intersegmental motor fibers may similarly explain a more diffuse efferent distribution than has previously been suspected.
