*Anatomical terms of bone*

At the junction of the antero-inferior surface of the coronoid process with the front of the body is a rough eminence, the tuberosity of the ulna (or ulnar tuberosity), which gives insertion to a part of the Brachialis; to the lateral border of this tuberosity the oblique cord is attached.
