The video tutorial explains the coracobrachialis muscle, its origin, path, and function. It originates from the scapula and extends to the humerus, forming part of the axilla. The muscle is innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve, which can be compressed if the muscle hypertrophies. The coracobrachialis muscle aids in arm movements such as anteversion, adduction, and internal rotation, and plays a crucial role in stabilizing the shoulder joint.
