23
Q

Relations of nerves and arteries in ACF

A

Medial to lateral:

median nerve, brachial artery, biceps, radial nerve

24
Q

Cubital tunnel

A

Ulnar nerve enters the forearm through this

Wrapped between the two heads of flexor carpi ulnaris

Ulnar nerve could get trapped and require release

2nd most common cause of entrapped nerve in upper limb (after carpal tunnel)

25
Q

Borders of cubital tunnel

A

Medial: Medial epicondyle

Lateral/posterior: olecranon

(insertions of 2 heads flexor carpi ulnaris)

Roof: cubital tunnel retinaculum

floor: capsule of elbow joint
