Q

Describe the funciton, attachments and innervation of FDP

A
  • o: proximal ulna and intosseous
  • i: tendons via tunnel attaching to distal phalanges
  • a:DIPs over MCP, PIP, wrist
  • inn: It is the hybrid muscle supplied by two different nerves:Medial half (associated with ring and little fingers) is innervated by ulnar nerve
    Lateral half (associated with middle and index fingers) by anterior interosseous nerve ( C8, T1)- motor branch of median nerve.

21
Q

Describe the function, attachments and innervation of the EPL

A
  • posterior ulna and interosseous membrane
  • base of distal phalanx
  • all joints extended mainly hyper-/extends the interphalangeal joint of the distal phalanx of the thumb.[6]
    It also serves as accessory extensors and adductors of the metacarpophalangeal of the proximal phalanx and carpometacarpal joints of the first metacarpal.[3]
    It may also assist in wrist joint extension.[4]
