The hypothenar muscle with the greatest frequency of variations is the abductor digiti minimi manus. Except for morphological variations of this muscle, have also been reported cases of an extra wrist muscle, the accessory abductor digiti minimi manus muscle. This case report presents a rare case of an accessory abductor digiti minimi muscle characterized by an unusual origin from the tendons of the flexor digitorum superficialis. This anatomical variation was identified on a formalin - fixed male cadaver of Greek origin during routine dissection. This anatomical variation, which may result in Guyon's canal syndrome or complicate common wrist and hand surgical procedures such as the carpal tunnel release, should be known to orthopaedic surgeons and hand surgeons in particular.
