The axillary spaces are anatomic spaces.[1] through which axillary contents leave the axilla.[2] They consist of the quadrangular space, triangular space, and triangular interval. It is bounded by teres major, teres minor, medial border of the humerus, and long head of triceps brachii.[3]
They should not be confused with the true "axillary space" within the borders of the axilla.
