Arm (Humerus)

Head

Neck - Anatomic and surgical

Tubercles - greater and lesser

Intertubercular Groove

Deltoid tuberosity

Capitulum - Rounded: articulates w/radius

Trochlea - Spool-shaped: articulates w/ulna

Epicondyles

Forearm: Radius

Medial; Thumb Side

Proximal End

• Head - Rotates in radial notch of ulna
