Proximal and distal aspects

The ulna is broader proximally, and narrower distally.

Proximally, the ulna has a bony process, the olecranon process, a hook-like structure that fits into the olecranon fossa of the humerus. This prevents hyperextension and forms a hinge joint with the trochlea of the humerus. There is also a radial notch for the head of the radius, and the ulnar tuberosity to which muscles can attach.

Distally (near the hand), there is a styloid process.

Structure

The long, narrow medullary cavity is enclosed in a strong wall of compact tissue which is thickest along the interosseous border and dorsal surface.

At the extremities the compact layer thins.

The compact layer is continued onto the back of the olecranon as a plate of close spongy bone with lamellæ parallel.

From the inner surface of this plate and the compact layer below it trabeculæ arch forward toward the olecranon and coronoid and cross other trabeculæ, passing backward over the medullary cavity from the upper part of the shaft below the coronoid.

Below the coronoid process there is a small area of compact bone from which trabeculæ curve upward to end obliquely to the surface of the semilunar notch which is coated with a thin layer of compact bone.

The trabeculæ at the lower end have a more longitudinal direction.

Muscle attachments

Muscle	Direction	Attachment
Triceps brachii muscle	Insertion	Olecranon process (via common tendon)
Anconeus muscle	Insertion	Olecranon process (lateral aspect)
Brachialis muscle	Insertion	Coronoid process of the ulna
Pronator teres muscle	Origin	Coronoid process (also shares origin with medial epicondyle of the humerus)
Flexor carpi ulnaris muscle	Origin	Olecranon process and posterior surface of ulna (also shares origin with medial epicondyle of the humerus)
Flexor digitorum superficialis muscle	Origin	Coronoid process (also shares origin with medial epicondyle of the humerus and shaft of the radius)
Flexor digitorum profundus muscle	Origin	Coronoid process, anteromedial surface of ulna (also shares origin with the interosseous membrane)
Pronator quadratus muscle	Origin	Distal portion of anterior ulnar shaft
Extensor carpi ulnaris muscle	Origin	Posterior border of ulna (also shares origin with lateral epicondyle of the humerus)
Supinator muscle	Origin	Proximal ulna (also shares origin with lateral epicondyle of the humerus)
Abductor pollicis longus muscle	Origin	Posterior surface of ulna (also shares origin with the posterior surface of the radius bone)
Extensor pollicis longus muscle	Origin	Dorsal shaft of ulna (also shares origin with the dorsal shaft of the radius and the interosseous membrane)
Extensor pollicis brevis muscle	Origin	Dorsal shaft of ulna (also shares origin with the dorsal shaft of the radius and the interosseous membrane)
Extensor indicis muscle	Origin	Posterior surface of distal ulna (also shares origin with the interosseous membrane)
