“…The elbow joint in M. tridactyla presented lateral deviation in the radiographic exam. The radius presented a lateral deviation, while the ulna presented a medial deviation, as it occurs in other Xenarthras, such as Tamandua (Cavalheiro et al, 2015; Scheidt et al, 2022), but also humans. This description seems different from sloths of the genus Bradypus , that have the ulna on a caudolateral position in relation to the radius and have a larger lateral epicondylus (Martins et al, 2022).…”

“…The elbow joint macroscopical assessment revealed that the capsule inserts into the radial fossa of the humerus in its proximal portion, as occurs in humans (Cavalheiro et al, 2015) but above the insertion described for domesticated species, which is proximal to the supratrochlear foramen, involving most of the radial fossa (Constantinescu & Constantinescu, 2009; König & Liebich, 2021). Distally, the capsule inserts near the radial head, extending medially until nearing the radial tuberosity and into the radial notch of the ulna, and the joint extends distally to constitute the proximal radioulnar joint, which resembles the description for carnivores (Constantinescu & Constantinescu, 2009).…”

The giant anteater (Myrmecophaga tridactyla) has specialized thoracic limbs to forage by breaking the walls of anthills and termite mounds. They also play critical roles in defense posture and locomotion. This study aimed to provide a morphological and radiographic description of the shoulder joint and elbow joint of the giant anteater. Both joints of 13 tamanduas were assessed by morphological dissections and histological evaluation and radiographies without and with positive contrast. The radiographic projections selected to this study were the mediolateral and craniocaudal projections. The radiographic and anatomical findings were compared with the following results: the shoulder joint had a continuous joint capsule with the tendon sheaths of the short head and long head of the biceps brachii muscle, which could be visualized with an injection of 3 ml of intra‐articular contrast. The shoulder joint arthrography was performed with the needle positioned cranially to the joint for contrast injection. The elbow joint presented three articular compartments, and the insertion of the joint capsule was proximal to the radial fossa and distal to the radial tuberosity in the radial notch of the ulna, which were possible to identify with 2 ml of intra‐articular contrast. The elbow joint arthrography was performed with the needle positioned laterally to the joint for contrast injection. Moreover, the joint capsule presented a caudomedial distention and fat pads. The powerful muscles of the forelimb play a fundamental role in maintaining the shoulder joint and elbow joint stability due to bony adaptations and the absence of usual ligaments. The morphological and radiological study provided relevant information on the soft‐tissue characteristics of shoulder and elbow joints, which may aid clinical‐surgical and diagnostic imaging procedures.

Sensory innervation of the human elbow joint and surgical considerations

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Based on the currently available literature, total denervation of the elbow joint is considered impossible. However, consensus with respect to the anatomic location of sensory branches is lacking. The aim of this literature review was to establish consensus with respect to the anatomic features of the articular branches innervating the elbow joint, as well as the distribution of sensory receptors about its capsule. Four electronic databases were queried, between January 1945 and June 2019. Twenty‐one original articles providing a detailed description of the distribution of sensory receptors about the elbow joint capsule (5) and its articular branches (16) were reviewed. The posterior capsule was found to be primarily innervated by the ulnar and radial nerves via combined articular branches and sensory branches of the medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve. The anterior capsule was found to be primarily innervated by a plexus of articular ramifications from muscular branches of mixed nerves (ulnar, musculocutaneous, radial, and median nerves). A higher density of nociceptors and mechano‐receptors was identified within the posterior and anterior capsules, respectively. Thorough denervation, via the technique proposed herein, is likely to be sufficient in eliminating pain from degenerative conditions of the elbow joint.
