Commonly, the nerve passes obliquely over the medial face of the artery, as the elbow joint is being crossed. It may, however, run for a distance upon (that is, superficial to) the artery. Or it may follow the anterior (dorsal) border of the artery throughout. The median nerve ends by dividing into the medial and lateral volar nerves. The collateral branches are all given off a short distance beyond the elbow joint^nd .sunpJj ^^®/^|f ^^^' ^^^^^ radialis and the.
