  1. elbow bone

    The elbow bone is not a standalone bone, but it is a joint formed where three bones meet: the humerus bone of the upper arm, and the radius and ulna bones of the lower arm. This joint is encased in connective tissue, ligaments, and tendons that allow for a range of motion. Though not technically accurate, the term "elbow bone" can colloquially refer to the olecranon, which is the prominent bony projection of the ulna at the elbow.
