lower extremity - capitulum - trochlea - epicondyles (lateral, medial) - supracondylar ridges (lateral, medial) - fossae (radial, coronoid, olecranon) The humerus is a long bone in the arm or fore-legs (animals) that runs from the shoulder to the elbow. ... The anatomical neck of the humerus is obliquely directed, forming an obtuse angle with the body. ... The greater tubercle is situated lateral to the head and lesser tubercle. ... The lesser tubercle, although smaller, is more prominent than the greater tubercle: it is situated in front, and is directed medialward and forward. ... The body or shaft of the humerus is almost cylindrical in the upper half of its extent, prismatic and flattened below, and has three borders and three surfaces. ... The deltoid tuberosity is the region on the shaft of the humerus to which the the deltoid muscle attaches. ... The lateral portion of the articular surface of the humerus consists of a smooth, rounded eminence, named the capitulum of the humerus; it articulates with the cupshaped depression on the head of the radius, and is limited to the front and lower part of the bone. ... The medial portion of the articular surface of the humerus is named the trochlea, and presents a deep depression between two well-marked borders; it is convex from before backward, concave from side to side, and occupies the anterior, lower, and posterior parts of the extremity. ... Above the front part of the trochlea is a small depression, the coronoid fossa, which receives the coronoid process of the ulna during flexion of the forearm. ...

ulna: upper extremity (olecranon, coronoid process, tuberosity, radial notch, semilunar notch) - body of ulna - lower extremity (styloid process) The ulna (Elbow Bone) [Figs. ... ... The coronoid process is a triangular eminence projecting forward from the upper and front part of the ulna. ... The semilunar notch of the ulna (trochlear notch of ulna, greater sigmoid cavity) is a large depression, formed by the olecranon and the coronoid process, and serving for articulation with the trochlea of the humerus. ... The body of the ulna at its upper part is prismatic in form, and curved so as to be convex behind and lateralward; its central part is straight; its lower part is rounded, smooth, and bent a little lateralward. ...

radius: upper extremity (tuberosity) - body - lower extremity (ulnar notch, styloid process) The radius and ulna of the left forearm, posterior surface. ... The body of the radius (or shaft of radius) is prismoid in form, narrower above than below, and slightly curved, so as to be convex lateralward. ...
