elbow and forearm complex Flashcards
origin of the lateral compartment of the muscle of the forearm
located: elbow 90 deg, FA mid prone
lateral supracondylar ridge
common extensor origin
aka “extensor epicondye”
lateral epicondyle
common elbow flexor origin
point to the rear
aka “flexor spicondyle”
large and easy to locate
medial epicondyle
Hour glass shape
Has two portion separated by the trochlear groove
medial
Trochlea
Spheroid in shape
Capitulotrochelar groove in between
- Where radial head slides during elbow flexion
Capitulum
superior to trochlea
Receives the coronoid process of the ulna
Coronoid fossa
Above the capitulum
Receives the head of the radius
Radial fossa
Trochlear ridge / longitudinal ridge
Trochlear / semilunar notch - concave
Coronoid process
Ulnar tuberosity
Radial notch
Ulna
Head
Fovea
Neck
Radial tuberosity
- Trochlear notch
- Coronoid process
Radius
articulate with convex capitulum
