The antecubital refers to the area located in front of the elbow, specifically the region where the arm bends. This area is significant in medical settings, as it is commonly used for venipuncture to draw blood or insert intravenous lines due to the accessibility of prominent veins, such as the median cubital vein. The term is derived from Latin, where "ante" means "before" and "cubital" relates to the elbow.
