The '''lateral epicondyle of the [[humerus]]''' is a small, tuberculated eminence, curved a little forward, and giving attachment to the [[radial collateral ligament (elbow)| radial collateral ligament]] of the [[elbow-joint]], and to a [[tendon]] common to the origin of the [[Supinator]] and some of the Extensor muscles. In [[birds]], where the arm is somewhat rotated compared to other [[tetrapod]]s, it is termed '''dorsal epicondyle of the humerus'''.
