The cubital fossa is the triangular area on the anterior view of the elbow Boundaries superior (proximal) boundary - an imaginary horizontal line connecting the medial epicondyle of the humerus to the lateral epicondyle of the humerus medial (ulnar) boundary - lateral border of pronator teres muscle lateral (radial) boundary - medial border of brachioradialis muscle apex- formed by the meeting point of the lateral and medial boundaries Contents The cubital fossa contains four main vertical structures (from lateral to medial): The radial nerve The biceps brachii tendon The brachial artery. (before splitting into radial and deeper ulna artery) The median nerve The ulnar nerve is also in the area, but is not in the cubital fossa; it occupies a groove on the posterior aspect of the medial epicondyle of the humerus.
