Week 11 Hand and fingers Flashcards
joint classification of carpometacarpal (CMC) and intermetacarpal joints
thumb – synovial saddle
fingers (2-5) – synovial plane
bones and articular surface of carpometacarpal and intermetacarpal joints
thumb: base of metacarpal and trapezium
fingers 2-5: base of metacarpals and distal row of carpal bones, intermetacarpal bones
fibrous capsule of carpometacarpal and intermetacarpal joints
- continuous CMC 2-5
- thumb separate
ligaments of carpometacarpal and intermetacarpal joints
thumb:
- radial carpometacarpal
- anterior/ posterior oblique
fingers 2-5:
- palmar carpometacarpal
- dorsal carpometacarpal
- interosseous carpometacarpal
movements (stability) of carpometacarpal and intermetacarpal joints
-
thumb is extremetly mobile:
flexion/ extension
abduction/ adduction
circumduction
opposition - minimal movement in digits 2-3
- 5th finger is moderately mobile
joint classification of metacarpophalangeal joints
synovial condyloid joint
bones and articular surface of metacarpophalangeal joints
- head of metacarpals and bases of proximal phalanges
- sesamoid bones articulating with head of 1st metacarpal
ligaments of metacarpophalangeal joints
1. collateral
- proper (cord-like) 繩狀 and accessory (fan-shaped)
- Extension: proper collateral ligament lax = permit abduction by interossei
- Flexion: proper collateral ligament taut = prevents unwanted abduction of MC heads during grip
2. volar/ palmar plate (ligament)
- fibrocartilage
- increase stability and congruency
- prevents hyperextension
- deep transverse metacarpal
- extensor expansions (dorsal hood)
movements of metacarpophalangeal joints
flexion/ extension
abdcution/ adduction
circumduction
joint classification, bone and articular surfaces of interphalangeal joints
- synovial hinge joint
- median ridge
ligaments of interphalangeal joints
- collateral
- volar/ palmar plate (ligament)
movements of interphalangeal joints
- flexion: PIP (0-130 degrees), DIP (70-90 degrees)
- extension: volar plates and collateral ligs taut
- axis of movement is oblique, fingers move toward base of thumb, facilitating 方便 grasp and opposition
deep fascia of the hand
- binding of the skin creases 摺痕 to the deep fasica
- palmar aponeurosis (thick, central part of palmar fascia)
organisation of the palm
septa creating: hypothenar (medial), central and thenar (lateral) compartments
central further divided: midpalmar and thenar spaces
what are the three muscles of the thnear
abductor pollicus brevis
flexor pollicus brevis
opponens pollicis
