Not illustrated. 1905 Excerpt: ...the head of the radius. Its synovial membrane is continuous with that of the elbow joint. The special feature is the orbicular ligament, a broad band which forms four-fifths of a circle and is attached by its ends to the anterior and posterior margins of the lesser sigmoid cavity; it encircles the head of the radius and is widest above. 281 Inferior Radio-ulnar Joint.--This is a lateral ginglymus between the side of the head of the ulna and the sigmoid cavity of the radius; it includes the lower end of the head of the ulna, which articulates with the fibro-cartilage. The triangular interarticular fibro-cartilage is attached by its apex to the depression on the outer side of the root of the ulnar styloid process, and by its base to the edge between the sigmoid cavity and carpal surface of the radius, binding them together; it helps form two joints. The capsule is imperfect and consists of transverse fibres (anterior and posterior radio-ulnar ligaments) connecting the bones in front and behind. A synovial membrane completes the cavity, covers the fibro-cartilage, and sends a diverticulum (recessus sacriformis) upward between the radius and ulna. 282 Accessory Ligaments.--The interosseous membrane is a strong layer connecting the interosseous borders of the radius and ulna; its fibres run chiefly downward and outward. It begins about an inch below the bicipital tuberosity, leaving a gap (hiatus interosseous) above its upper border, and extends downward to the inferior radio-ulnar joint. The oblique ligament is a slender band running from the outer part of the coronoid process, downward and outward to the radius just below the bicipital tuberosity. 283 Radio-carpal Joint.--This is a bi-axial diarthrosis, or condyloid joint, between the radius and triangular fib...
