It is bordered by the following structures: It contains the cephalic vein,[4] and deltopectoral fascia, which is a layer of deep fascia that invests the three structures that make up the border of the triangle.

The coracoid process of the scapula is not subcutaneous; It is covered by the anterior border of the deltoid.

However, the tip of the coracoid process can be felt on deep palpation on the lateral aspect of the clavipectoral triangle.

The coracoid process is used as a bony landmark when performing a brachial plexus block.

Position of coracoid process is significant for diagnosing dislocations as well.
