Abstract
High division of sciatic nerve into two components with an associated variation in the origin of superior and inferior gluteal nerves was observed in 70 yrs old male cadaver on right side. The components of sciatic nerve rejoined in the middle 2/3rd of thigh, and they redivided at the superior angle of popliteal fossa. It is a rare variation. Such variation is important for surgeons and nurses too.
