Like in the forearm, the arm is drained by the brachial veins (deep veins that accompany the brachial artery) and all its branches. In addition, the basilic and cephalic veins course upwards through the subcutaneous tissue and drain the superficial regions of the arm.
Below the cubital fossa, the brachial artery divides into two arteries running down the forearm: the ulnar and radial. In some people, this division occurs higher up, causing these arteries to run through the upper arm. These are the two main branches of the brachial artery.
