Sample Question 1
What are the characteristics of the HU Joint Articular Surfaces?

1. Compound jt capsule that encloses the HU jt only. 2. Formed by the concavity of the trochlea on the distal end of the humerus ART with the convexity of the trochlear notch on the ulna. 3. ART Surfaces are incongruent --> decreases with increasing jt loads as a result of the deformation of the articular cartilage. 4. Motion occurs in frontal plane in the form of ADD and ABD.

1. Single jt capsule that encloses the HU jt, HR jt, and the superior RU jt. 2. Formed bt the convexity of the trochlea on the distal end of the humerus ART with the concavity of the trochlear notch on the ulna 3. ART Surfaces are congruent --> increases with increasing jt loads as a result of the deformation of the articular cartilage a. Provide most of elbows structural stability 4. Motion occurs in sagittal plane in the form of FLX and EXT

Sample Question 2
What are the articicular surfaces in the HR joint?

3. The contact between the sup surface of the radial head and the capitulum decreases as the elbow flexes.

1. Formed by the ART bt the sup surface of the radial hd(concave) with the convexity of the capitulum on the distal humerus 2. In full EXT a. The SUP surface of the radial hd is only going to ART with a portion of the capitulum b. The contact bt the SUP surface of the radial hd with the capitulum will increase as the elbow flexes 3. With given loads thru this jt in posns of FLX, we are going to have less pressure per unit of surface area

4. Increased pressure per unit of surface area is observed with given loads in positions of flexion.

2. Only the sup surface of the radial head makes contact with a small portion of the capitulum in full extension.
