 eMedicine - Nerve Entrapment Syndromes : Article by Dachling Pang, MD
The cubital tunnel, floored by the medial collateral ligament of the elbow, is roofed by the strong arcuate ligament (retinaculum) stretching between the medial humeral epicondyle and the medial aspect of the olecranon.
The 2 exceptions are the deep branch of the ulnar nerve (pure motor) at the Guyon canal and the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (pure sensory) near the anterior superior iliac spine.
This almost 90-degree kink of the nerve often is exaggerated by a thickened ridge in the iliacus fascia as it attaches to the posterior aspect of the inguinal ligament.

 To Investigate the Anatomy and Function of the Popliteus Muscle
The popliteus muscle is described as a flat, triangular muscle with three origins; the lateral femoral condyle, lateral meniscus and arcuate popliteal ligament (Williams et al 1995).
However, the attachment of the popliteus to the lateral meniscus has been documented in other studies (Basmajian and Lovejoy 1971, Griffin 1984, Harner et al 1998, La Prade et al 2000, Simonian et al 1997).

Collects blood from the cavernous spaces of the penis via the venous plexus, and passes deep to the arcuate pubic ligament and joins the prostatic venous plexus.
The membranous fascia attaches medially to the pubic symphysis and laterally to the body of the pubis.

 Posterior Abdominal Wall - BloodVESSELS
The diaphragm muscle dome has several arcuate ligaments: one median ligament, two medial ligaments, and two lateral ligaments.
The major blood vessels (except Inferior Vena Cava) enter from the chest to the abdomen by passing posterior to the diaphragm's arcuate ligaments.
The Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) is the largest vein returning to the heart from the abdomen.

The pudendal plexus (plexus pudendalis; vesicoprostatic plexus) lies behind the arcuate public ligament and the lower part of the symphysis pubis, and in front of the bladder and prostate.
It receives (a) the gluteal, internal pudendal, and obturator veins, which have their origins outside the pelvis; (b) the lateral sacral veins, which lie in front of the sacrum; and (c) the middle hemorrhoidal, vesical, uterine, and vaginal veins, which originate in venous plexuses connected with the pelvic viscera.
hypogastrica; internal iliac vein) begins near the upper part of the greater sciatic foramen, passes upward behind and slightly medial to the hypogastric artery and, at the brim of the pelvis, joins with the external iliac to form the common iliac vein.
