Interosseous membrane
Membrana interossea antebrachii · Mezikostní membrána
Fascia & connective tissue
Looks like
A tough sheet of fibres stretched between the radius and ulna along the forearm.
What it does
Binds the two bones together, passes load from one to the other and gives muscles a surface to grow from.
Keeping it well
Torn in severe forearm injuries; wrist pain after a radial head fracture can mean it is torn and needs a specialist.
