🗑
Where does the anterior part of the MCL attach??   Coronoid process of ulna  
🗑
What is the primary stabilizer to valgus stress from 20 - 120 degrees?   Anterior part of MCL  
🗑
Which part of the MCL stays on the ulna?   Oblique  
🗑

🗑
When do the posterior fibers become taut?   Deep flexion  
🗑
When are the majority of the MCL fibers taut?   Extension

Does the MCL complex originate at the center of the axis of elbow rotation?   No  
🗑
How is the MCL shaped?   Triangular  
🗑
How is the LCL shaped?   Fan-shaped  
🗑
Which is stronger, MCL or LCL?   MCL  
🗑
Where does the LCL run?   Lateral epicondyle of humerus to annular ligament and olecranon process  
🗑
Does the LCL complex lie in the center of the joint axis? What does this mean?   Yes Consistent length throughout ROM
