Ulna

Os ulnae

The ulna is the longer forearm bone with a prominent olecranon process at its proximal end. The trochlear notch articulates with the trochlea of the humerus. The coronoid process prevents posterior dislocation. The head and styloid process are at the distal end.

기능

The medial bone of the forearm forming the primary articulation at the elbow. Provides stability during forearm rotation and serves as the axis around which the radius rotates.

임상적 의의

Olecranon fractures result from direct falls on the elbow. Monteggia fractures involve ulnar shaft fracture with radial head dislocation. The ulnar nerve passes posterior to the medial epicondyle, vulnerable to compression.
