The Elbow Joint
![Page 6: Joints of upper limb](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081421/56815350550346895dc160c2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Elbow joint• Elbow Joint type:
– Synovial – hinge• Articular surfaces:
– Humeroulnar ( trochla of humerus+ trochlear notch of ulna )– Humeroradial (capitulum of humerus + upper surface of head of
radius)
Capsule and synovial membrane are common for elbow & SRUJ
Capsule is attached to humerus, ulna & unular ligament. It is not attached to radius.
It includes the radial, coronoid & olecranon fossae of the humerus.

Ligaments of the Elbow
1- Ulnar Collateral Ligament
medial side – connects humerus to ulna
(3 bands ant. , post. And oblique bands)
2- Radial Collateral Ligament
Lateral side – connects humerus to radius
3- Annular Ligament
Surrounds radial head/holds it tight
to ulna

Manual of Structural Kinesiology
The Elbow and Radioulnar Joints 6-12
Joints
• Radioulnar joint – Radial head rotates around at proximal ulna– Distal radius rotates around distal ulna– Annular ligament maintains radial head in its
joint– Joint between shafts of radius & ulna held
tightly together between proximal & distal articulations by an interosseus membrane (syndesmosis)• substantial rotary motion between the bones
