The ulna or ulnar bone (pl.: ulnae or ulnas) [3] is a long bone in the forearm stretching from the elbow to the wrist. It is on the same side of the forearm as the little finger, running parallel to the radius, the forearm's other long bone. Longer and thinner than the radius, the ulna is considered to be the smaller long bone of the lower arm.
The lateral intermuscular septum extends from the lower part of the crest of the greater tubercle of the humerus, along the lateral supracondylar ridge, to the lateral epicondyle; it is blended with the tendon of the deltoid muscle, gives attachment to the triceps brachii behind, and to the brachialis, brachioradialis, and extensor carpi radialis longus muscles in front.
medial (ulnar) boundary – lateral border of pronator teres muscle originating from the medial epicondyle of the humerus. lateral (radial) boundary – medial border of brachioradialis muscle [3] originating from the lateral supraepicondylar ridge of the humerus. apex – it is directed inferiorly, and is formed by the meeting point of the ...
The accurate adaptation of the trochlea of the humerus, with its prominences and depressions, to the trochlear notch of the ulna, prevents any lateral movement. Flexion in the humeroulnar joint is produced by the action of the biceps brachii and brachialis , [ 3 ] assisted by the brachioradialis , with a tiny contribution from the muscles ...
Its base is continuous with the body of the bone, and of considerable strength. [1] Its apex is pointed, slightly curved upward, and in flexion of the forearm is received into the coronoid fossa of the humerus. Its upper surface is smooth, convex, and forms the lower part of the semilunar notch.

The median nerve, nerve origin C5-T1, which is a branch of the lateral and medial cords of the brachial plexus. This nerve continues in the arm, travelling in a plane between the biceps and triceps muscles. At the cubital fossa, this nerve is deep to the pronator teres muscle and is the most medial
