The elbow joint is a synovial joint found in the upper limb between the arm and the forearm. It is the point of articulation of three bones: the humerus of the arm and the radius and the ulna of the forearm. The elbow joint is classified structurally as a synovial joint.
The elbow is the joint connecting the proper arm to the forearm. It is marked on the upper limb by the medial and lateral epicondyles, and the olecranon process. Structually, the joint is classed as a synovial joint, and functionally as a hinge joint.
The elbow joint is where your humerus (your upper arm bone) meets your radius and ulna (the two bones in your forearm). It joins your upper arm to your forearm. Your elbow also contains cartilage, ligaments, muscles, nerves and blood vessels.
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.
The elbow is a synovial joint that aids in flexion and extension. It is a crossing point for the nerves and blood vessels of the upper arm and forearm. Many injuries and conditions cause...
The elbow joint, although non-weight bearing, may be the most complex joint in the human body. The elbow is a synovial hinge joint made up of articulations of mainly the distal humerus and the proximal ulna.
The elbow is often thought of as being a single joint, but it’s actually made up of three separate joints: the humeroulnar joint, the humeroradial joint, and the proximal radioulnar joint. All...
