Q

Palmaris brevis: vascular and nervous supply

A

Vascular: deep palmar arch (palmar metacarpal artery)

Nervous: ulnar nerve (C8, T1) SUPERFICIAL branch

123
Q

List the metacarpal/short muscles

A

Lumbricals
Dorsal interossei
Palmar interossei

124
Q

Lumbricals: action and insertions (1-4)

A

Action: MCP joint flexion, PIP and DIP extension for digits 2-5

Insertions:
1,2,3,4 lumbrical muscles insert on dorsal digital expansion of 2,3,4,5 digit respectively (fingers)

125
Q

Lumbricals: origin

A

1,2 lumbricals originate on tendons of flexor digitorum profundus (as unipennate muscle from radial lateral sides)

3,4 lumbricals originate on tendons of flexor digitorum profundus (as bipennate from medial sides)

126
Q

Lumbricals: vascular and nervous supply

A

Vascular: superficial and deep palmar arches, common palmar digital and dorsal digital arteries

Nervous:
1,2 innervated by median nerve (C8, T1)
3,4 innervated by ulnar nerve (C8, T1)

127
Q

Dorsal interossei: action and insertion

A

Action: acts with lumbricals in flexing MCP joints and extending DIP and PIP joints for digits 2-4
Also does ABDUCTION away from 3rd digit/axial line

Insertion:
1,2 muscle insert on the dorsal digital expansion of 2,3 digit as well as the RADIAL side of 2,3 phalanx
3,4 insert on the dorsal digital expansion of 3,4 digit and ULNAR side of 3,4 phalanx

128
Q

Dorsal interossei: origin

A

1st muscle inserts on 1,2 metacarpals (adjacent side, 2 heads)
2nd muscle inserts on 2,3 metacarpals (adjacent side, 2 heads)
3rd muscle inserts on 3,4 metacarpals (adjacent side 2 heads)
4th muscle inserts on 4,5 metacarpals (adjacent side 2 heads)

129
Q

Dorsal interossei: vascular and nervous supply

A

Vascular: dorsal and palmar metacarpal artery?

Nervous: ulnar nerve (C8, T1)

130
Q

Palmar interossei: action and insertions

A

Action: for digits 2, 4, 5
Flexion at MCP joints
Extension and ADDUCTION towards 3rd digit/axial line

Insertions:
1,2,3 muscles insert on dorsal digital expansion and base of proximal phalanx of digits 2, 4, 5

131
Q

Palmar interossei: origin

A

1st muscle inserts on ULNAR side of 2nd metacarpal

2nd muscle inserts on radial side of 4th metacarpal

3rd muscle inserts on radial side of 5th metacarpal

132
Q

Palmar interossei: vascular and nervous supply

A

Vascular: deep palmar arch (palmar metacarpal artery)

Nervous: ulnar nerve (C8, T1) deep branch
