The ulnar styloidis best recognised on making deep pressure a little below and in front of the head of the ulna, which forms the rounded subcutaneous prominence seen on the back of the wrist when the hand is pronated.
In fractures of the lower third of the shaft, the hand may be flexed toward the radial side, and the styloid lies at a higher level, as in a Colles' fracture.
The styloid processes retain their normal relations to one another, and the carpal bones lie on a plane posterior to the styloids, the articular surfaces may be recognised on palpation.
The antero-posterior diameter of the joint is increased, and the forearm, as measured from the lateral epicondyle to the tip of the styloid process of the radius, is shortened to the extent of about an inch.
Tenderness over the position of the ulnar styloid may indicate fracture of that process, although it is sometimes present without fracture.
When reduction is complete, the deformity disappears, and the two styloid processes regain their normal positions relative to one another.
The posterior surface of the forearm is next to the plate, as the distinct outline of the styloid process of the ulna and the posterior border of the articular surface of the radius shows.

Another circular sweep just above the pisiform and unciform bones divides all the soft textures, after which the joint may be opened, and, if necessary, the styloid processes cut away with saw or pliers.
They are long in quadrupeds, and constitute what are designated by some authors the styloid processes, but they must not be confounded with the processes of the same name which in the case of man form part of the temporal bone.
The ulna terminates below in a head and a styloid process; these articulate with the two last bones of the first row of the carpus--viz.
This muscle arises from thestyloid process of the occipital bone and from the jugular process; it thence passes downwards and forwards, and terminates variously, in different species.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "styloid" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
