Tile articular branch consists of one or tw(j tiny which supply tlie anterior portionof the elbow joint. Radial vein Radial arterj, Fig. 1096.

The muscular branches (rr. inusculares) (Fig. 1095) consist of a fasces of nerve-bundleswhich arise from the median a short distance below the elbow. They are distributed to thepronator radii teres, the flexor carpi radialis, the palmaris longus and that portion of the digitorum which arises from the inner condyle and from the ulna. Two additionalfilaments from the median supply the flexor sublimis, one entering the radial head and theother that portion which flexes the index finger. c. The anterior interosseous nerve (n. interosseus antebnichii voiaris) (Fig. 109S) arisesfrom the posterior aspect of the median a short distance below the elbow. It passes downthe forearm, accompanied by the anter
