The initiating events that trigger the inflammatory cascade usually fall into one of two categories, either: 1) abnormal forces imposed on normal joints such as fractures, sprains, obesity, direct trauma, etc.; or 2) normal forces imposed on abnormal joints such as elbow or hip dysplasia, osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD), patellar luxation, ununited anchoneal process, fragmented coronoid process, cranial cruciate ligament rupture or tear, and other congenital or genetic conformational cartilage, bone or joint defects.

Three portions of the bones participating in the formation of the elbow joint are involved in the development of elbow dysplasia: 1) the anconeal process of the ulna, which is the most cranial proximal aspect of the ulna articulating with the humerus; 2) the humeral condyle, which is the distal aspect of the humerus articulating with both the radius and ulna; and 3) the coronoid process of the ulna, which provides the majority of the joint surface contact between the humerus and the ulna.
