In metacarpals (bones of the hands), the muscles were attached to the carpal bones (radial and ulnar), accessory carpal bones, first, second, third, and fourth metacarpals, phalanges, proximal base, body, head, ungual crest, ungual process (nails), extensor process, carpometacarpal joints, metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal ...
The elbow is the region between the upper arm and the forearm that surrounds the elbow joint. [1] The elbow includes prominent landmarks such as the olecranon , the cubital fossa (also called the chelidon, or the elbow pit), and the lateral and the medial epicondyles of the humerus .
A – Cervical or Neck Bones (7 in number). B – Dorsal or Thoracic Bones (13 in number, each bearing a rib). C – Lumbar Bones (7 in number).D – Sacral Bones (3 in number). E – Caudal or Tail Bones (20 to 23 in number). 1 – Cranium, or Skull. 2 – Maxilla. 3 – Mandible, or Lower jaw . 4 – Atlas. 5 – Axis. 6 – Scapula, or ...
Beneath the neck of the radius, on the medial side, is an eminence, the radial tuberosity; its surface is divided into: . a posterior, rough portion, for the insertion of the tendon of the biceps brachii.

The composition of the triangular ligamentous structure on the lateral side of the elbow varies widely between individuals [1] and can be considered either a single ligament, [2] in which case multiple distal attachments are generally mentioned and the annular ligament is described separately, or as several separate ligaments, [1] in which case parts of those ligaments are often described as ...
The olecranon is situated at the proximal end of the ulna, one of the two bones in the forearm. [1] When the hand faces forward ( supination ) the olecranon faces towards the back (posteriorly). It is bent forward at the summit so as to present a prominent lip which is received into the olecranon fossa of the humerus during extension of the ...
Tennis elbow or lateral epicondylitis is a chronic or an acute inflammation of the tendons that arise from the outer part of the elbow. The affected tendons are the tendons of extensor muscles which originate from the lateral epicondyle of humerus. It is caused by the repetitive movements and overuse.
