The ulnar nerve runs downward in the medial side of the arm,passes behind the medial epicondyle into the forearm, and ends inthe palm (Fig 170). In the forearm it supplies: Flexor carpi ulnaris. Flexor digitorum (profundus).In the hand it supplies: Interossei. Little finger muscles. Thumb muscles (one and a half). The median nerve runs downward in the arm, close under theborder of the biceps muscle. It then passes in front of the elbowjoint into the forearm, and continues between the layers of flexormuscles to the palm. PLEXUS AND BRANCHES. 239 Axillary artery Median nerveBrachial artery.
