    Study Notes

    Anatomy of the Ulna and Carpals

    • Trochlear notch is bordered by the olecranon and coronoid processes of the ulna.
    • The rounded concavity on the lateral side of the coronoid process is the radial notch.
    • The prominent ridge on the lateral surface of the ulnar shaft is known as the lateral border.
    • The concavity between the supinator crest and distal part of the coronoid process is called the supinator fossa.

    Carpal Bones

    • The largest carpal bone in the proximal row is the scaphoid.
    • The carpal tunnel is formed by the flexor retinaculum, converting the carpal arch.
    • The carpal tunnel allows passage for 9 tendons and the median nerve.
    • All fingers have three phalanges, however, the thumb has only two.

    Bones and Features of the Upper Limb

    • Each digit is composed of three bones: proximal phalanx, middle phalanx, and distal phalanx.
    • The hook-like structure on the palmar surface of the hamate bone is called the hamulus.
    • The scapula covers the posterolateral aspect of the thorax, overlying the 2nd to 7th ribs.
    • The clavicle features a prominent conoid tubercle near its acromial end, close to the trapezoid line.

    Muscle Attachments and Bone Structures

    • The subclavian muscle attaches to the clavicle.
    • The humerus has a lateral lip and a medial lip associated with the intertubercular sulcus.
    • The humerus also features a radial groove on its posterior surface.
    • The deltoid muscle attaches at the deltoid tuberosity located laterally on the humerus body.

    Joint Articulations

    • The head of the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus.
    • The shape of the clavicle is S-shaped (also described as a double curve).
    • The medial end of the clavicle is directed toward the scapula.

    Skeleton Composition

    • The axial skeleton includes the skull, vertebral column, and rib cage.
    • The appendicular skeleton consists of bones of the limbs and girdles.
    • The upper limb is comprised of the humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.
    • The pelvic girdle is made up of the two hip bones (ossa coxae) and sacrum.
    • The shoulder girdle is formed by the clavicle and scapula.

    Additional Bone Features

    • The conoid tubercle is located near the acromial end of the clavicle.
    • The ulnar notch is found at the distal end of the ulna.
    • The tuberosity of the ulna is situated superiorly toward the elbow.
    • The rounded concavity on the lateral side of the coronoid process serves as a surface for radius articulation.

    Joints and Fractures

    • A joint lacking at least two degrees of freedom cannot perform circumduction.
    • The radiocarpal joint is also termed the wrist joint.
    • The scaphoid is notably the largest and most commonly fractured carpal bone.
    • The median nerve passes through the carpal tunnel, alongside the tendon structures.
