This document discusses the segmental innervation of the upper and lower limbs. It begins by describing the spinal cord and vertebral column, noting that segmental nerves emerge from the spinal cord through intervertebral foramina to innervate the skin. It then details the typical features of a vertebral segment and adjoining segments. The document goes on to describe the composition and branching of typical segmental nerves, including the nerves that make up the brachial plexus and lumbar plexus which supply the upper and lower limbs, respectively. It concludes by outlining the dermatomal patterns of sensory innervation for the skin of the upper and lower limbs.
