  2. Brachial veins - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachial_veins

    In human anatomy, the brachial veins are venae comitantes of the brachial artery in the arm proper. Because they are deep to muscle, they are considered deep veins.Their course is that of the brachial artery (in reverse): they begin where radial veins and ulnar veins join (corresponding to the bifurcation of the brachial artery).

  3. Axillary artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_artery

    The axillary artery is accompanied by the axillary vein, [2] which lies medial to the artery, along its length. In the axilla, the axillary artery is surrounded by the brachial plexus. [2] The second part of the axillary artery is the reference for the locational descriptions of the cords in the brachial plexus.

  5. Brachial plexus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachial_plexus

    The brachial plexus is a network of nerves (nerve plexus) formed by the anterior rami of the lower four cervical nerves and first thoracic nerve (C5, C6, C7, C8, and T1).This plexus extends from the spinal cord, through the cervicoaxillary canal in the neck, over the first rib, and into the armpit, it supplies afferent and efferent nerve fibers to the chest, shoulder, arm, forearm, and hand.

  6. Axillary nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_nerve

    The nerve lies at first behind the axillary artery, [4] and in front of the subscapularis, [1] and passes downward to the lower border of that muscle.. It then winds from anterior to posterior around the neck of the humerus, in company with the posterior humeral circumflex artery, [2] through the quadrangular space (bounded above by the teres minor, below by the teres major, medially by the ...

  7. Medial cutaneous nerve of arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_cutaneous_nerve_of_arm

    It passes through the axilla, at first lying behind, and then medial to the axillary vein, and communicates with the intercostobrachial nerve.. It descends along the medial side of the brachial artery to the middle of the arm, where it pierces the deep fascia, and is distributed to the skin of the back of the lower third of the arm, extending as far as the elbow, where some filaments are lost ...

  8. Lateral pectoral nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_pectoral_nerve

    The lateral pectoral nerve (also known as the lateral anterior thoracic nerve) arises from the lateral cord of the brachial plexus, [1] [2] and through it from the C5-7. [1] [2] It passes across the axillary artery and vein, [3] pierces the clavipectoral (coracoclavicular) fascia, and enters the deep surface of the pectoralis major to innervate ...

  9. Scalene muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scalene_muscles

    The scalene muscles have an important relationship to other structures in the neck. The brachial plexus and subclavian artery pass between the anterior and middle scalenes. [4] The subclavian vein and phrenic nerve pass anteriorly to the anterior scalene as the muscle crosses over the first rib. The phrenic nerve is oriented vertically as it ...
