Upper limb

Ulna

This bone has a U-shaped trochlear notch that wraps around the trochlea of the humerus. Posterior side of this notch is formed by a prominent olecranon (bony point where you rest your elbow on a table). Anterior side of this phone is formed by a less prominent coronoid process. At the distal end is a medial styloid process which are the bony lumps you can palpate on each side of your wrists

Distal end of the humerus

This end of the humerus has two smooth condyles: capitulum and trochlea. Contains lateral and medial epicondyles. Also houses the olecranon fossa, coronoid fossa, and the radial fossa.

Proximal end of the humorus

This end of the humerus is towards the anatomical neck and the surgical neck. Other prominent features are the muscle attachments called the greater and lesser tubercle's and and intertubular sulcus.

Surgical neck of the humorus

This is a common fracture site on the humerus

Antibrachium

This phone extends from the elbow to the wrist and contains two bones, the radius and the ulna. In anatomical position the radius is lateral to the ulna

Brachium

This phone extends from the shoulder to the elbow and contains only one bone, that humorus

Humerus

This phone has a hemispherical head that articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula.

Name the carpal bones of the distal row starting on the lateral side thumb

Trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate

Carpal bones

8 bones that form the wrist allowing for flexion, extension, abduction, and addduction. When speaking of them you start from the thumb and work in. These bones are in the base of the hand

Features of the distal end of the radius (lateral to medial)

A bony point, called the styloid process, which can be palpated proximal to the thumb. 2 shallow depressions that articulate with the scaphoid and lunate bones of the wrist. And ulnar notch which articulates with the end of the ulna

Phalanges

Bones of the fingers. Identified by's preceded by proximal, middle, and distal.

Metacarpals

Bones of the palm.

Trochlea of the humerus

Located on the distal end this condyle is shaped like a pulley like and articulates with the ulna

Capitulum of the humerus

Located on the distal end this condyle is shaped like a wide tire and articulates with the radius

Where is metacarpal one and metacarpal five located

Metacarpal one is located proximal to the base of the thumb. Metacarpal five is located proximal to the base of the little finger

Which phalanger you would somebody wear a wedding ring?

On the left proximal phalanges IV

Radius

On thumb side. This bone has a distinctive discoidal head at its proximal end. When the forearm is rotated so the palm turns forward and back, the circular superior surface of this disc spins on the capitulum of the humerus, and the edge of the disc spend on the radial notch of the ulna.

A singular finger would be called what?

Phalanx.

Sallie left the party to take Charlie home. How to describe the carpal bones in order

Name the carpal bones of the proximal row, starting at the lateral side (thumb)

Scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, and pisiform

What is the proximal end of a metacarpal bone called?

The base

What is the shaft of a metacarpal called?

The body

Coronoid fossa

The distal end of the humerus contains 3 deep pits. This one is on the anterior surface, accommodates the coronoid process of the ulna when the forearm is flexed

Olecranon fossa

The distal end of the humerus contains three deep pits. This one is considered the posterior pit and accommodates a process of the owner called the olecranon when the elbow is extended

Radial fossa

The distal end of the humerus contains three deep pits. This one is the lateral pit named for the nearby head of the radius.

What is the distal end of the metacarpal called?

The head. The heads of the metacarpals form knuckles when you clench your fist.

Which bone of the proximal row is not present at birth?

The pisiform is not present at birth but develops around the age of 9 to 12

Interosseous membrane

The radius and ulna are attached to a longer shafts by this ligament

Identify the medial bone of the forearm

The ulna

How many phalanges are in the thumb compared to the other digits?

There are two phalanges in the thumb (pollex) and three phalanges in each of the other digits

Lateral and medial epicondyles

These are the two bony processes of the humorous. The medial protects the owner nerve which passes close to the surface across the back of the elbow, known as the funny bone

Manus

This bone contains 19 bones in 2 groups: 5 metacarpals in the palm and 14 phalanges in the fingers

Carpus

This bone contains a small bones arranged into rows
