Fingernerven 8 und 9

German to English Medical
...Durchtrennung der beiden Beugesehnen des IV. Fingers der linken Hand sowie der gemeinsamen Fingernerven 8 und 9...

Finger nervs 8 and 9 - would these be the Common Digital Nerve and the Ulnar Digital Nerve? The translation for the rest of the sentence is not necessary. Any German physicians-translators out there who could help me with this? Thanks.

i poornima's answer

is absolutely correct.

We had the same question before (11Jul)and my following answer was accepted:

communicating finger nerves N 8 and 9.

Since the original text doesn't seem too scientific, this might still be an option.

I tried again to find such an explicit reference in German. No luck! Sorry.

Regards and many thanks for the Ref.!
