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 ...
In human anatomy, the radial (RCL) and ulnar (UCL) collateral ligaments of the metacarpophalangeal joints (MCP) of the hand are the primary stabilisers of the MCP joints. [1] A collateral ligament flanks each MCP joint - one on either side. Each attaches proximally at the head of the metacarpal bone, and distally at the base of the phalynx.
Pain in the groin, called anterior hip pain, is most often the result of osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, occult fracture, acute synovitis, and septic arthritis; pain on the sides of the hip, called lateral hip pain, is usually caused by bursitis; pain in the buttock, called posterior or gluteal hip pain, which is the least common type of hip ...
Pain near the rear of your hip could be a sign of sciatica, a ligament injury, or one of the numerous small muscles on the back outer portion of your hip socket (collectively called external ...
Its borders present continuations of the groove on the margin of the superior surface; they serve for the attachment of ligaments: the back part of the ulnar collateral ligament medially, and the posterior ligament laterally. From the medial border a part of the flexor carpi ulnaris arises; while to the lateral border the anconeus is attached.
Lateral collateral ligament (disambiguation): Fibular collateral ligament; Lateral collateral ligament of ankle joint; Radial collateral ligament of elbow joint; Medial collateral ligament; Collateral ligaments of interphalangeal articulations of foot; Collateral ligaments of metatarsophalangeal articulations; Ulnar collateral ligament of elbow ...
Ulnar collateral ligament (or UCL) may refer to: Ulnar carpal collateral ligament; Ulnar collateral ligament of elbow joint; Ulnar collateral ligament of thumb
A ligament is the fibrous connective tissue that connects bones to other bones. It also connects flight feathers to bones, in dinosaurs and birds. All 30,000 species of amniotes (land animals with internal bones) have ligaments. It is also known as articular ligament, articular larua, [1] fibrous ligament, or true ligament.
