The arteria collateralis ulnaris inferior ("lower artery accompanying the ulnar ") is a small artery of the arm. It arises from the humerus artery just above the elbow joint . Then it runs over the brachialis muscle , between the humerus and the medial head of the triceps brachii muscle to the forearm . The artery ends in the rete articulare cubiti and anastomoses with the arteria recurrens ulnaris and the arteria collateralis ulnaris superior .
