Translation for 'ulna' from English to French

ulna

cubitus {m}anat.

• Proximally, the head of the radius articulates with the capitulum of the humerus and the radial notch of the ulna at the elbow.
• Unique characteristics are found in the femur, the humerus, and the ulna bones.
• The styloid process of the ulna is a bony prominence found at distal end of the ulna in the forearm.
• "Pistosaurus" has a strongly flattened ulna. It has medium length and nearly symmetrical in dorsal view.
• also known as semilunar notch and greater sigmoid cavity, is a large depression in the upper extremity of the ulna that fits the trochlea of the humerus (the bone directly above the ulna in the arm) as part of the elbow joint.

• The ulna is approached from the subcutaneous border.
• Anconeus also abducts the ulna and stabilizes the elbow joint.
• The ability to pronate the manus (hand) and forearm in therian mammals is achieved by a rounded head of the radius, which allows it to swivel across the ulna.
• In classic centralization central portions of the carpus are removed to create a notch for placement of the ulna.
• In the arms of a specimen referred to "Struthiomimus currelli", the right radius is only about 80% as long as the left. The right ulna is shorter than the left ulna by a similar amount.

• An ulna fracture is a break in the ulna bone, one of the two bones in the forearm.
• It rotates around the ulna and the far end (where it joins to the bones of the hand), known as the styloid process of the radius, is [...] the distance from the ulna (center of the circle) to the edge of the radius (the circle).
