  2. Coronoid fossa of the humerus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronoid_fossa_of_the_humerus

    Superior to the anterior portion of the trochlea is a small depression, the coronoid fossa, which receives the coronoid process of the ulna during flexion of the forearm. It is directly adjacent to the radial fossa of the humerus .

  3. Humerus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humerus

    The coronoid fossa is smaller than the olecranon fossa and receives the coronoid process of the ulna during maximum flexion of the elbow. Coronoid fossa of the humerus. Above the front part of the capitulum is a slight depression, the radial fossa, which receives the anterior border of the head of the radius, when the forearm is flexed.

  4. Ulna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ulna

    The coronoid process is a triangular eminence projecting forward from the upper and front part of the ulna. Its base is continuous with the body of the bone, and of considerable strength. Its apex is pointed, slightly curved upward, and in flexion of the forearm is received into the coronoid fossa of the humerus.

  5. Coronoid process of the ulna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronoid_process_of_the_ulna

    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.

  6. Trochlea of humerus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trochlea_of_humerus

    The trochlea articulated with the trochlear notch and coronoid. The elbow is a hinge joint with a rotatory component where the trochlea forms the convex, proximal surface which articulates with the concave, distal surface on the ulna, the trochlear notch. While the trochlea together with its associated fossae almost covers a 360° angle, the ...

  7. Coracoid process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracoid_process

    The coracoid process acts as an attachment and origin for a large number of muscles (attached muscles not labeled here). The coracoid process is a thick curved process attached by a broad base to the upper part of the neck of the scapula; [2] it runs at first upward and medially; then, becoming smaller, it changes its direction, and projects forward and laterally.

  8. Elbow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elbow

    Passive flexion (forearm is pushed against the upper arm with flexors relaxed) is limited to 160° by the bony projections on the radius and ulna as they reach to shallow depressions on the humerus; i.e. the head of radius being pressed against the radial fossa and the coronoid process being pressed against the coronoid fossa. Passive flexion ...

    the olecranal region encompassing the back of the elbow, the antebrachial region encompasses the forearm, front and back; and the manual or manus region encompassing the back of the hand. The posterior regions of the legs, from superior to inferior, include the gluteal region encompassing the buttocks, the femoral region encompassing the thigh,
