High origin of the ulnar and radial arteries in humans.
High division of the brachial artery was found in 4 human cadavers. In all cases the brachial artery divided into main branches within the medial bicipital sulcus. Both the ulnar and radial arteries descended within the sulcus to the elbow. In one case the musculocutaneous nerve was fused with the median nerve, giving off branches to the anterior group of arm muscles.
