Snapping of the ulnar nerve and medial head of the triceps can be assessed by testing the position of these structures with passive and active elbow flexion and extension. The snap angles are highlighted in the shaded area: the ulnar nerve tends to dislocate over the medial epicondyle at about 90° and the medial triceps at about 115° (with permission, Mayo Foundation, 2024).
