Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) is the primary stabilizer of the lateral aspect of the elbow, providing resistance to valgus stress in the extended and flexed elbow positions. The annular ligament and radial collateral ligament (RCL) provide additional support, but are not the most stabilizing structures in this region. The transverse bundle is not a recognized structure in the anatomy of the elbow.
