elbow

The elbow is the region between the upper and lower parts of the arm that surrounds the elbow joint. The elbow includes prominent landmarks such as the olecranon, the elbow pit, and the lateral and the medial epicondyles of the humerus. The elbow joint is a hinge joint between the upper arm and the forearm; more specifically between the humerus in the upper arm and the radius and ulna in the forearm which allows the forearm and hand to be moved towards and away from the body.The term elbow is specifically used for humans and other primates, and in other vertebrates forelimb plus joint is used.The name for the elbow in Latin is cubitus, and so the word cubital is used in some elbow-related terms, as in cubital nodes for example.
