    What are the boundaries of the cubital fossa?

    <p>The superior boundary is a line between the lateral and medial epicondyles. The lateral boundary is the brachioradialis (medial border of muscle). The medial boundary is the pronator teres (lateral border of muscle). The roof is the bicipital aponeurosis and the floor is the brachialis.</p> Signup and view all the answers

    What are the contents of the cubital fossa?

    <p>The contents of the cubital fossa include the radial nerve, biceps brachii tendon, brachial artery, and median nerve. The median nerve bifurcates into ulnar and radial arteries. The radial nerve is deep to the brachioradialis and divides into deep and superficial branches.</p> Signup and view all the answers
