Contents of the cubital fossa, from lateral to medial, are the tendon of the biceps brachii, the brachial artery, and the median nerve. The tendon of the biceps brachii is easily palpable. Often the cephalic, basilic, and median cubital veins are visible in the subcutaneous fascia overlying the cubital fossa.
The ulnar nerve passes behind the medial epicondyle of the humerus and can be “rolled” here against the bone.
