The 'intercostal vein' (UBERON:0012197) and 'intercostal artery' (UBERON:0005612) are said to drain and supply blood from and to the 'intercostal space' (UBERON:0012198). In both cases, this violates the range restriction of the 'vessel drains blood from' (RO:0020102) and 'vessel supplies blood to' (RO:0020101) relations, because 'intercostal space' is an immaterial anatomical entity. We create a new term 'intercostal element' intended to refer to any anatomical structure located within an intercostal space (e.g. intercostal muscles, intercostal lymph nodes), and use the new term to replace 'intercostal space' in the relationships with 'intercostal vein' and 'intercostal arteries'.
