More precisely the different joint conditions grouped under the name of elbow dysplasia include: a ununited anconeal process (failure of union between the anconeal process and the remainder of the ulna beyond 20 weeks of age), the so - called osteochondrosis dissecans of the humeral condyle (failure of ossification of the articular cartilage covering the humeral condyle, resulting in an abnormal thickening of the articular cartilage and separation between this region and the underlying bone), and finally the fragmentation of the coronoid process (in which the ulnar coronoid process have multiple fragments or most often a single fragment).

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.
