The joint capsule attaches to the articular surface of the condyle, the periphery of the '''olecranon fossa''' and the articular  cartilage of the '''trochlear notch of the ulna'''. It fuses with the collateral ligaments. Paired collateral ligaments attach the epicondyles to the tuberosities of the radius and ulna.
*Paired collateral ligaments attach the epicondyles to the tuberosities of the radius and ulna.
