Clinical anatomy and biomechanics of the elbow.

The anatomy of the elbow joint had been studied extensively over the last 2 decades. The increased understanding of the anatomy and contribution of the anatomical structures to the elbow biomechanics had enabled surgeons to improve the results of surgical reconstruction and fracture fixation. This review articles intend to summarise the salient functional and clinical anatomical and relevant biomechanical data that had been published recently.
