superior part of the arm
Communicates with the axilla
Inferior part of the arm
number of important structures pass between am and forearm through cubital fossa
what is an intermuscular septa
Pass from each of the humerus to deep foscia that surrounds the limb
Anterior compartment of the arm
Contains muscles that flex the arm
innervated by musculocutaneous nerve
Posterior compartment of the arm
Has muscles that extend the elbow joint
innervated by the radial nerve
Brachilias : Origin
