Abstract
The olecranon ligament (ligamentum olecrani) is described as an elastic ligament of the elbow joint in carnivores that tenses the caudomedial part of the joint capsule. The aim of the study was to compare the course and the microscopic structure of the ligament in dogs and cats. The elbow regions of 25 dogs and 15 cats were dissected to examine the topography of the ligament in extension and flexion. Furthermore, the olecranon ligaments of five dogs and five cats were studied using routine histological methods. Additional sections were stained with Resorcin–Fuchsin and Orcein to detect elastic fibres. In both species the olecranon ligament originates at the lateral surface of the epicondylus medialis humeri and inserts at the cranial crest of the olecranon extending distally to the roof of the processus anconeus. Tension of the ligament only occurs when the elbow joint is flexed maximally. This tension is increased by a slight supination of the forearm, which takes place automatically in this joint position. In dogs the ligament is long (30–40 mm in medium sized breeds) and relatively slim (approx. 2–4 mm). In cats the ligament is short (10–12 mm) and relatively strong (5–8 mm). The histological examination of the olecranon ligament shows all signs of a tight collagenous ligament with a negligible amount of elastic fibres. The olecranon ligament helps to limit the maximal flexion of the elbow joint. In addition, it controls a slight lateral movement of the processus anconeus during the automatic supination of the antebrachial bones in extreme flexion of the elbow joint.

In dogs the ligament is long (30–40 mm in medium sized breeds) and relatively slim (approx. 2–4 mm). In cats the ligament is short (10–12 mm) and relatively strong (5–8 mm). The histological examination of the olecranon ligament shows all signs of a tight collagenous ligament with a negligible amount of elastic fibres. The olecranon ligament helps to limit the maximal flexion of the elbow joint. In addition, it controls a slight lateral movement of the processus anconeus during the automatic supination of the antebrachial bones in extreme flexion of the elbow joint.</abstract>
