Medial band onto medial phalanx and lateral band into distal phalanx

20
Q

Anatomical snuff box is formed of?

A

Medial/posterior border- extensor pollicis longus

Laterally- extensor polllicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus

Base formed by scaphoid and trapezium

21

For precision grip

24
Q

Nerve supply to lumbricals?

A

2/3median nerve

4/5 ulnar nerve

25

No palmar interossie for D1 and D3 so action performed by?

A

Adductor pollicis muscle for thumb

29
Q

Dorsal interossei function?

A

Abduct MCP joints

30

No dorsal interossie for D1 and d5 as this is performed by?

A

Thenar hypothenar

32
Q

Origin of thenar and hypothenar muscles?

A

Transverse head- 3rd metacarpal

Insert into promximal phalanx

Deep to thenar muscles

35
Q

What supplies blood thumb and half of index finger?

A

Princeps pollicis artery and radialis indicis artery- both branches of radial artery

36
Q

Ulnar artery gives off?

A

Common palmar digital arteries then divide to give proper palmer digital arteries

1/2 D2 to d5

37
Q

Median nerve supplies?

A

Thenar muscles and first 2 lumbricals

And gives off palmar branch before it enters carpal tunnel, supplying skin of palm

Sensory to d1 to 1/2 d4
