The extensor tendon zone that is at the MCP joint.

Answer 12

What is extensor tendon zone 5?

Answer 13

What are the lateral bands of the dorsal apparatus?

Question 14

The position you could put the wrist into to decrease the amount of tension on the extensor tendons in zone 6.

Answer 14

What is passive wrist extension

Question 15

The finger deformity caused by volar plate rupture or an untreated mallet finger.

Answer 15

What is Swan Neck Deformity?

Question 16

This concept of tendon motion is extremely important for flexor tendon function and will be limited by adhesions forming around the tendons.
