The upper arm lateral vein, often referred to as the lateral antebrachial vein, is a superficial vein located in the upper arm and forearm. It runs along the lateral side (outer side) of the arm and is responsible for draining blood from the forearm and hand.

It typically connects with deeper veins, contributing to the overall venous return to the heart.
