It was divided into the span of the hand or the length between the tip of little finger to the tip of the thumb (one-half cubit), the palm
Ulnar collateral ligament injury of the elbow one-time, traumatic events. Rather, they are more often due to small chronic tears that accumulate over time. The ulnar collateral ligament (UCL, also known as medial collateral ligament) is located on the medial side of the elbow. The UCL complex comprises three ligaments: the anterior oblique, posterior oblique and transverse ligaments. The anterior oblique ligament (AOL) attaches from the undersurface of the medial epicondyle to the medial ulnar surface slightly below the coronoid process. It is the sturdiest of the three sections within the UCL. The AOL acts as the primary restraint against valgus stress at the elbow during flexion
