Styloid Process

Attachement- Medial Epicondyle of Humerus to medial sides of coronoid process and olecranon process of ulna

Medial Colleateral Ligament

Attachement- Proximally on the lateral Epicondyle of humerus and distally on the annular ligament and the lateral side of the ulna

Lateral Collateral Ligament

Function- Stabilizes the Elbow

Medial and Lateral Collateral Ligament

Attachment anteriorly and posteriorly to the radial notch of the ulna, encompassing the head of the radius and holding it against the ulna

Annular Ligament

Broad, flat membrane located between the radius and ulna for the most of their lengths

Interosseous Membrane

Keeps bones from separating and provides more surface area for attachment of forearm and wrist muscles

Interosseous Membrane

Articulation of Humerus with Ulna and Radius

Elbow Joint

Motion of Elbow Joint and Number of Axials

Flex/ Exten, No hyperextension, Uniaxial- Hinge Joint

Proximal End pivots with the radial notch of ulna

Superior Proximal Radioulnar Joint

Ulnar notch of radius around head of ulna

Distal Radioulnar Joint

Angle formed by the longitudinal axes of the humerus and forearm

Carrying Angle

What causing the Carrying Angle

Occurs because the distal end of the humerus is not level. Medial side is lower than lateral side. As the ulna and radius rotate about the the trochlea and capitulum of humerus they do not do so in a straight line

What is a Normal Carry Angle

10-15 degrees in Women


~5 degrees in Men

Triceps Brachii Insertion

Olecranon Process of Ulna

Triceps Brachii Action

Elbow Extension

Ancroneus Origin

Lateral Epicondyle of Humerus
