The ulnar nerve runs behind the medial epicondyle of the humerus. This is a well - known anatomical fact. The medial epicondyle is a prominent bony landmark on the medial (inner) side of the distal end of the humerus, and the ulnar nerve is superficial at this location, making it vulnerable to injury.
