Between these two bands a few intermediate fibers descend from the medial epicondyle to blend with a transverse band which bridges across the notch between the olecranon and the coronoid process.

Above the back part of the trochlea is a deep triangular depression, the olecranon fossa, in which the summit of the olecranon is received in extension of the forearm.

Below, it is fixed to the upper and lateral margins of the olecranon, to the posterior part of the annular ligament, and to the ulna behind the radial notch.
35.
It pierces the medial epicondyle and olecranon, accompanied by the ulnar nerve, and ends under the Flexor carpi ulnaris by anastomosing with the posterior ulnar recurrent, and inferior ulnar collateral.

No answer was ever accepted, but I like the suggestion of " olecranal skin " or " olecranon skin " .-- talk 13 : 49, 4 December 2006 ( UTC)

During the hyperextension process, the olecranon ( elbow bone ) process is forced against the weaker, immature metaphyseal bone of the distal humerus, producing the typical extension-type supracondylar fracture .
38.
The notch is concave from above downward, and divided into a medial and a lateral portion by a smooth ridge running from the summit of the olecranon to the tip of the coronoid process.

Accordingly, the ulna of the lower arm is well-developed with an enormous olecranon, upper process, that is set-off from the shaft, an exceptional trait shared with " Baryonyx ".
40.
Patients who are able to fully extend their arm at the elbow are unlikely to have a fracture ( 98 % certainty ) and an X-ray is not required as long as an olecranon fracture is ruled out.
