When the vessel has passed the insertion of the coraco-brachialis, it becomes situated at the inner side of the biceps, which also partly overlaps it, as it now lies on the forepart of the brachialis anticus. From Wordnik.com. [Surgical Anatomy] Reference
E, the brachialis anticus muscle, and between the two accompanying veins; at the inner side of the artery, but separated from it by a small interval occupied by one of the veins, is situated the median nerve d. From Wordnik.com. [Surgical Anatomy] Reference

Axillary plexus of nerves, of which d is a branch on the coracoid border of the axillary artery; e, the musculo-cutaneous nerve, piercing the coraco-brachialis muscle; f, the ulnar nerve; g, musculo-spiral nerve; h, the median nerve; i, the circumflex nerve. From Wordnik.com. [Surgical Anatomy] Reference
As the coracoid process points to the situation of the artery in the axilla, so the coraco-brachialis muscle, C, marks the exact locality of the vessel as it emerges from this region; the artery ranges along the inner margin of both the process and the muscle, which latter, in fleshy bodies, sometimes overhangs and conceals it. From Wordnik.com. [Surgical Anatomy] Reference
If it be required to ligature the artery at this locality, an incision two inches and a half in length, made along the course of the vessel, and avoiding the superficial veins, will expose the fascia; and this being next divided on the director, the artery will be exposed resting on the brachialis anticus, and between the biceps tendon and pronator teres muscle.

As the fracture is usually within a quarter of an inch of the tip, the fibres of insertion of the brachialis prevent displacement. From Wordnik.com. [Manual of Surgery Volume Second: Extremities—Head—Neck. Sixth Edition.] Reference
As soon as the radius and ulna are separated from the humerus, the biceps and brachialis pull the bones into their proper positions. From Wordnik.com. [An Epitome of Practical Surgery, for Field and Hospital.] Reference
According to D.M. Greig, they do not develop in the tendon of the brachialis, but under it, and are not of the nature of myositis ossificans. From Wordnik.com. [Manual of Surgery Volume Second: Extremities—Head—Neck. Sixth Edition.] Reference

When the Coracoid process is broken -- which is a rare accident -- the fragment is carried inward and downwards, by the conjoined action of the pectoralis major and the coraco-brachialis muscles. From Wordnik.com. [An Epitome of Practical Surgery, for Field and Hospital.] Reference
The shaft of the humerus should not be encroached upon, if it is possible to avoid doing so, or the excision of the radius and ulna carried below the insertion of the brachialis anticus and triceps. From Wordnik.com. [An Epitome of Practical Surgery, for Field and Hospital.] Reference
When the patient is very fat or muscular, the coraco-brachialis muscle may be required as a guide to the vessel; but in general its superficial position renders any guide quite unnecessary, even in the dead body.

The head of the radius is then easily removed by the bone-pliers, and the ulna also protruded, the attachment of the brachialis anticus to the coronoid process divided, and the bone sawn across just at the base of that process. From Wordnik.com. [A Manual of the Operations of Surgery For the Use of Senior Students, House Surgeons, and Junior Practitioners] Reference
As the coraco-clavicular ligaments usually remain intact, there is no displacement; but when these are torn the coracoid is dragged downwards and laterally by the combined action of the pectoralis minor, biceps, and coraco-brachialis muscles. From Wordnik.com. [Manual of Surgery Volume Second: Extremities—Head—Neck. Sixth Edition.] Reference
The direction of this vessel is marked by a line extending from the outer side of the axillary space to a point midway between the condyles of the humerus, which corresponds with the depression along the inner border of the coraco-brachialis and biceps muscles.

Chin-ups primarily work the latissimus dorsi - the large triangular muscles located on either side of the back - but are often regarded as a complete upper-body workout as the exercise is assisted by the biceps, brachialis, deltoids, pectroalis and various other muscles.

When some days have elapsed before reduction is attempted, forcible manipulations are to be deprecated as they greatly increase the risk of ossification occurring in relation to the brachialis (D.M. Greig); and recourse should be had to open operation, and the tearing or bruising of the soft parts should be reduced to a minimum. From Wordnik.com. [Manual of Surgery Volume Second: Extremities—Head—Neck. Sixth Edition.] Reference
The head leaves the capsule through the rent made in its lower part, and, either from a continuation of the force or from contraction of the muscles inserted into the inter-tubercular (bicipital) groove, particularly the great pectoral, passes medially under cover of the biceps and coraco-brachialis till it comes to rest against the anterior surface of the neck of the scapula, just below the coracoid process.
