What bone sits in the olecranon fossa?

The olecranon fossa is a depression in the humerus bone of the upper arm, and it is specifically designed to accommodate the olecranon process of the ulna bone. The olecranon is a prominent bony projection at the end of the ulna that forms the bony part of the elbow.


What bony landmark of the anterior humerus articulates with the ulna?

What is the name of all the bones in your elbow?

The elbow is not in and of itself a bone. It is the joining of the humerus, ulna, and radius-most specifially, the humerus and ulna. The bony point that we think of as the elbow is part of the ulna (one of the forearm bones). It is called the olecranon process. The smaller bumps on the sides are parts of the humerus (upper arm bone). They are called epicondyles.


Bone that contains the olecranon fossa?

The bone that contains the olecranon fossa is the humerus, which is located in the upper arm. The olecranon fossa is a depression on the posterior side of the humerus that accommodates the olecranon process of the ulna when the arm is extended.
