AB The  radius  and  the  ulna  lie  parallel  to  each  other  and  are  invested  at  their  proximal  ends  with  a  relatively  large  muscle  mass.  Because  of  their  close  proximity,  injury  forces  typically  disrupt  both  bones  and  their  ligamentous  attachments.  They  can  be  thought  of  conceptually  as  two  cones  lying  next  to  each  other  pointing  in  opposite  directions  (Fig.  13–1).
