Inferior facet greater tubercle

34
Q

36
Q

Three joints of the elbow

A
  1. Humero-ulnar
  2. Humero-radial
  3. Superior radio-ulnar
37
Q

Which two elbow joints allow Flexion/extension

A

Humero-ulnar and humeral-radial

38
Q

Which two elbow joints allow pronation/supination

A

Humero-radial and superior radio-ulnar

39
Q

Humero-ulnar joint three parts

A
  1. Trochlea (humerus) into trochlear notch (ulna)
  2. Olecranon (ulna) into olecranon fossa (post hum)
  3. Coronoid process (ulna) into coronoid fossa (ant hum)
40
Q

Humero-radial one part

A

Radius head articulates to humerus capitulum

41
Q

Superior radio-ulnar one part

A

Radial head into ulna’s radial notch

42
Q

Ligaments of elbow joint

A
  1. Ulnar collateral ligament
  2. Radial collateral ligament
  3. Annular ligament
43
Q

Ulnar collateral ligament role

A

Prevents elbow abduction

44
Q

Radial collateral ligament role

A

Prevents elbow Adduction

45
Q

Annular ligament role

A

Allows radius to spin during pro/sup

46
Q

Fat Pads elbow role

A

Fill up fossa when bone processes aren’t in them, reducing amount of synovial fluid needed

47
Q

Fat pads elbow radiology

A

If pushed away from the fossa indicates excess fluid buildup (eg internal bleeding, infection)
