The branches to the Biceps andBrachialis anticus are given off after the nerve has pierced the Coraco-brachialis. The nerve also sends a small branch to the bone, which enters thenutrient foramen with the accompanying artery, and a filament, from the branchsupplying the Brachialis anticus, to the elbow-joint. The cutaneous portion of the nerve passes behind the median cephalicvein, and divides, opposite the elbow-joint, into an anterior and a posteriorbranch. The anterior branch descends along the radial border of the forearm to thewrist, and supplies the integument over the outer half of the anterior surface.At the wrist-joint it is placed in front of the radial artery, and some filaments,piercing the deep fascia, accompany that vessel to the back of the wrist,.supply
