LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • A. Ligaments • Elbow • Articular Capsule • Radial anular ligament • Interosseous membrane • Ulnar collateral ligament • Radial collateral ligament • Hand • Palmar aponeurosis • Common Flexor sheath • Flexor retinaculum • B. Bursae • Subcutaneous olecranon bursa • Subtendinous olecranon bursa • C. Cartilage, articular cartilage • D. Articular Capsule • Synovial membrane • Fibrous layer
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR AND HUMERORADIAL JOINTS) • Articular Capsule • Radial Anular ligament • Interosseous membrane • Ulnar collateral ligament • Radial collateral ligament • All provide strength and support to the joint as do the surrounding muscles • Two ligaments found in the elbow joint are: • the ulnar collateral ligament and the radial collateral ligament. • They are strong, fan shaped condensations of the fibrous joint capsule
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Movements of the elbow joint • Flexion and extension occur at the elbow joint • The long axis of the fully extended ulna makes an angle of approximately 170° with the long axis of the humerus • Called the carrying angle for the way the forearm angles away from the body when something is carried • The obliquity of the angle is more pronounced in women than in men
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR AND PROXIMAL RADIOULNAR JT) • Articular capsule • A sac enclosing a joint, formed by an outer fibrous membrane and an inner synovial membrane. Also called joint capsule • The synovial fluid nourishes the fibrocartilage and lubricates the joint surface
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Weak anteriorly and posteriorly, the capsule strengthened on each side by the ulnar and radial collateral ligaments • The fibrous layer of the capsule is continuous with the fibrous layer of the elbow joint • It attaches to the humerus at the margins of the lateral and medial ends of the articular surfaces of the capitulum and trochlea • Fig 6.35
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Radial anular ligament • Encircles and holds the head of the radius in the radial notch of the ulna • Forms the proximal radioulnar joint • Allows pronation and supination of forearm • In pronation/supination it is the radius that rotates • Figure 6.33E, 6.36C
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Ulnar collateral ligament • Located on the medial side of the joint, it extends from the medial epicondyle of the humerus to the proximal portion of the ulna • Prevents excessive abduction of the elbow joint
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Radial collateral ligament • Located on the lateral side of the joint, extending from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus to the head of the radius. • Prevents excessive adduction of the elbow joint.
LIGAMENTS OF THE ELBOW (HUMEROULNAR JT) • Interosseous membrane • Connects the shafts of the ulna and the radius throughout most of their length • Classified as a fibrous joint, or syndesmosis • Note: The ulnar and radial collateral ligaments of the proximal humeroulnar joint are not to be confused with the ligaments of the same name at the distal radioulnar joint • Fig 6.20A,B
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Fascia of the palm is continuous with the antebrachial fascia, and the fascia of the dorsum of the hand • Palmar aponeurosis • Common Flexor Sheath • Flexor retinaculum
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Palmar aponeurosis • Strong, well-defined, central part of the palmar fascia • Covers soft tissues and overlies long flexor tendons • Proximal end is continuous with the flexor retinaculum and palmaris longus tendon • Fig 6.25C
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Palmar aponeurosis • The end distal to apex forms four longitudinal bands that radiate from the apex • These attach distally to the bases of the proximal phalanges • Forming the fibrous digital sheaths of individual digits
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Flexor Retinaculum • Or transverse carpal ligament • Continuous with the antebrachial fascia • Fibrous band that extends between the anterior prominences of the outer carpal bones
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Flexor retinaculum • and converts the anterior concavity of the carpus into the carpal tunnel • Through which the flexor tendons and median nerve pass
LIGAMENTS OF THE HAND • Common Flexor Sheath • Deep to the Flexor retinaculum • Together with the digital sheaths enables the tendons to slide freely past each other during movement
BURSAE OF THE HUMEROULNAR JT AND HAND • Bursa • closed sacs containing fluid which prevent friction, and enable structures to move freely over one another • Subcutaneous olecranon bursa-Located in the subcutaneous connective tissue over the olecranon • Subtendinous olecranon bursa-Located between the olecranon and triceps tendons, just proximal to its attachment
CARTILAGE • Articular cartilage • Caps the articulating surfaces of bones participating in a synovial joint • Provides a smooth, low-friction gliding surface • Avascular, nourished by diffusion (synovial fluid)

Carpal Tunnel • How Is It Caused? • Predisposition • Trauma, Injury, Swelling, Spain, Fracture. • Hormones • Overactivity of pituitary, Hypothyroidism • Mechanical Problems • Work stress, vibrating hand tools • Development of Cyst or Tumor in Canal • Some times there is no origin • What Is It? • Happens when the median nerve becomes squeezed or pressed at the wrist • Sometimes caused by thickening of irritated tendons that go through the tunnel. • The result being pain that goes it to the hand and can even radiate up in to the forearm. • Most common of the entrapment neuropathies where the peripheral nerves are traumatized or compressed.
Symptoms • Frequent burning, tingling, itching, numbness in palm of hand and fingers. • Fingers feel worthless and swollen. • Decreased grip strength; difficult to form a fist, grasp small objects, • Can differentiate between hot and cold. • Treatment • Surgical • Open Release • Endoscopic • Non-Surgical • Drugs:NSAID, Corticosteroids, and Vitamin B6 • Exercise: Stretching and strenthening • Alternative: acupuncture, yoga and chiropractic services
Tennis Elbow “Lateral Epicondylitis” • Causes • Tennis or any racket sport • Anything that involves extending your wrist or rotating his forearm, such as twisting a screwdriver or lifting a heavy object with your palm down. • With age irritation becomes inflamed more easily. • What is Tennis Elbow? • Is inflammation around the lateral epicondyle • It occurs when the muscle attachment, tendons, become irritated.
Symptoms • Pain that radiates from epicondyle in to forearm and wrist. • Pain with extension of wrist. • Forearm weakness. • Painful grip with activities such as shaking hands and turning door knobs. • Inability to hold objects such as coffee cups. • Treatment • Use of a brace to let muscles rest. • Corticosteroid injections. • PT: Stretching and ROM exercises. • Surgery is Rare
