The quadrangular space (or quadrilateral space (Velpeau ) or foramen humerotricipitale) is an axillary space in the arm. This is a clinically important anatomic space in the arm.

Symptoms include axillary nerve related weakness of the deltoid muscle in the case of any significant mass lesions in the quadrangular space. ==Boundaries== It is bounded by:〔 - "Scapular Region: Quadrangular Space of Scapular Region"〕 * ''above/superior:'' the teres minor. * ''below/inferior:'' the teres major * ''medially:'' the long head of the triceps brachii * ''laterally:'' the surgical neck of the humerus 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「quadrangular space」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
