Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). The triangular space (also known as the medial triangular space,[1] upper triangular space,[2] or medial axillary space[citation needed] or foramen omotricipitale) is an axillary space.
It should not be confused with the triangular interval, which transmits the radial nerve and the profunda brachii artery also called as the deep artery of the arm.

- Inferior: the superior border of the teres major;
- Lateral: the long head of the triceps;
- Superior: Teres minor or Subscapularis
For the superior border, some sources list the teres minor,[2][3] while others list the subscapularis.[4]
Contents
