radio-ulnar joint in dogs

A joint that connects the radius and the ulna. Examples: proximal and distal radio-ulnar joints. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the radio-ulnar joint is

A joint that connects the radius and the ulna. Examples: proximal and distal radio-ulnar joints. The atlas records it as a joint at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the radio-ulnar joint is

It sits in the forelimb, within the skeletal system. Only the region is known. The position shown is somewhere plausible inside it and nothing more.

What the radio-ulnar joint connects to

The atlas records 9 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. part of forelimb zeugopod and limb.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the radio-ulnar joint. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as articulation of the radus and ulna, radioulnar joint and radioulnar articulation. Searching any of those names reaches this page.
