condyloid joint









































a condyloid joint (also called condylar, ellipsoidal, or bicondylar) is an ovoid articular surface, or condyle that is received into an elliptical cavity. this permits movement in two planes, allowing flexion, extension, adduction, abduction, and circumduction.

these are also called ellipsoid joints. the oval-shaped condyle of one bone fits into the elliptical cavity of the other bone. these joints allow biaxial movements—i.e., forward and backward, or from side to side, but not rotation. radiocarpal joint and metacarpo-phalangeal joint are examples of condyloid joint.
