The '''triangular interval''' (also known as the '''lateral triangular space'''<ref>[http://iris3.med.tufts.edu/dentgross/labguide/Shoulder4.html Photo at tufts.edu]</ref> and '''lower triangular space'''<ref name="isbn0-7817-5309-0">{{cite book |author=Kyung Won, PhD.

Some sources state the lateral border is the [[humerus]],<ref>{{cite book |author=Adam Mitchell; Drake, Richard; Gray, Henry David; Wayne Vogl |title=Gray's anatomy for students |publisher=Elsevier/Churchill Livingstone |___location= |year=2005 |pages=650 |isbn=0-443-06612-4 |oclc= |doi=}}</ref><ref name="title">{{cite web |url=http://anatomy.uams.edu/anatomyhtml/topogr_back.html |title=uams.edu |accessdate=2008-01-02 |format= |work=}}</ref> while others define it as the lateral head of the triceps,<ref name="titleUntitled">{{cite web |url=http://www.ucd.ie/vetanat/ga-subject/f-limb/fl1.html |title=ucd.ie |accessdate=2008-01-02 |format= |work=}}</ref> or the medial head of the triceps.<ref name="isbn0-7817-5309-0">{{cite book |author=Kyung Won, PhD.
