Elbow joint

The tutorial explores the anatomy and function of the elbow joint, focusing on its bones, synovial structures, movements, and supporting muscles. It covers the humerus, ulna, and radius, detailing their bony landmarks and articulations. The elbow is a synovial hinge joint, allowing flexion and extension, and includes the humeroulnar, humeroradial, and proximal radioulnar joints. Key muscles like the biceps brachii and triceps brachii enable movement, while ligaments provide stability. The video concludes with clinical notes on common injuries and a summary of key concepts.
