Q

What is the Bones elbow-Humerus/Ulna?

A
  • During flexion and extension the trochlear notch (of Ulna) moves around the trochlea (of Humerus).
  • In extension, the olecranon process (of Ulna) fits into the olecranon fossa (of Humerus)
  • Olecranon foramen? (allows hyperextension)

(ulna creates the elbow of your elbow)

Q

What is the Joint-Forearm?

A
  • Radius
  • Ulna
  • Humerus (small)
  • Supination and pronation happen here
  • Mainly at the proximal and distal radio-ulnar joints
  • The humerus capitulum is present to keep the radius in place while pivoting
  • During these actions the ulna stays put and the radius is the only bone that moves
