Condyle

A condyle (/ˈkɒndɪl,-daɪl/; Latin: condylus, from Greek: kondylos; κόνδυλος knuckle) is the round prominence at the end of a bone, most often part of a synovial joint – an encapsulated articulation with another bone. It is one of the markings or features of bones, and can refer to:

On the femur, in the knee joint: Medial condyle Lateral condyle
On the tibia, in the knee joint: Medial condyle Lateral condyle
On the humerus, in the elbow joint: Condyle of humerus (Condylus humeri)
On the mandible, in the temporomandibular joint: Mandibular condyle
On the occipital bone, in the atlanto-occipital joint: Occipital condyles

Although not generally termed condyles, the trochlea and capitulum of the humerus act as condyles in the elbow, and the femur head acts as a condyle in the hip joint.

Condyle may also be used to describe an intrusion of the endocarp into the seed cavity of flowering plants like Abuta.
