29
Q

opponens digiti minimi insertion

A

medial aspect of shaft of 5th metacarpal

30
Q

opponens digiti minimi innervation

A

deep branch of ulnar nerve

31
Q

opponens digiti minimi action

A

flexion and lateral rotation of 5th metacarpal (at carpometacarpal joint)  helps to bring little finger into opposition with thumb

32
Q

lumbrical muscles origin

A

tendons of flexor digitorum profundus

33
Q

lumbrical muscles insertion

A

lateral side of extensor expansions of 2nd to 5th digits

34
Q

lumbrical muscles innervation

A

1 and 2 median

3 and 4 deep ulnar

35
Q

lumbrical muscles action

A

flexion of metacarpophalangeal joints and extension of interphalangeal joints

36
Q

palmar interossei origin

A

from metacarpal of corresponding digit (2nd, 4th and 5th metacarpals)

37
Q

palmar interossei insertion

A

1st palmar interosseous: medial side of base of proximal phalanx of index finger
2nd and 3rd palmar interossei : lateral side of base of proximal phalanx of ring and little fingers (all of them also insert into extensor expansion of corresponding digit)

38
Q

palmar interossei innervation

A

deep ulnar

39
Q

palmar interossei action

A

adduct digits at metacarpophalangeal joints

flex metacarpophalangeal joints and extend interphalangeal joints

40
Q

dorsal interossei insertion

A

1st: lateral side of base of proximal phalanx of index finger
2nd and 3rd: lateral and medial sides, respectively, of base of proximal phalanx of middle finger
4th: medial side of base of proximal phalanx of ring finger (all of them also insert into extensor expansion of corresponding digit)

41
Q

dorsal interossei innervation

A

deep ulnar

42
Q

dorsal interossei action

A

abduct digits at metacarpophalangeal joints

flex metacarpophalangeal joints and extend interphalangeal joints

43
Q

ulnar artery

A
  1. enters hand anterior (superficial) to flexor retinaculum and gives off deep palmar branch (accompanies deep branch of ulnar nerve) then continues into palm as superficial palmar arch
  2. superficial palmar arch is a direct continuation of ulnar artery and curves laterally, deep to palmar aponeurosis, and superficial to long flexor tendons then completed laterally by superficial palmar branch of radial artery
  3. superficial palmar arch gives off palmar digital arteries and usually supply medial side of index finger and both sides of middle, ring and little fingers
44
Q

radial artery

A
  1. after running through anatomical snuffbox, it leaves dorsum of hand by passing between two heads of 1st dorsal interosseous muscle and then passes between two heads of adductor pollicis and continues medially as deep palmar arch
  2. in the plane between 1st dorsal interosseous and adductor pollicis muscles, it usually gives off branches for thumb and lateral side of index finger (princeps pollicis and radialis indicis arteries, respectively)
  3. deep palmar arch is a direct continuation of radial artery and curves medially, deep to long flexor tendons then completed medially by deep palmar branch of ulnar artery
  4. deep palmar arch gives off palmar metacarpal arteries, which join palmar digital branches of superficial palmar arch
45
Q
