wrist

Question 1

radial carpal joint

Answer 1

biaxial synovial ellipsoid joint

Question 2

articular surface

Answer 2

distal radius and fibrocartilaginous disc to carpal bones scaphoid lunate and triqutetral

Question 3

capsule

Answer 3

encloses the joint attached to the articular margins, thickenered and strengthen by the palmar and dorsal radiocarpal ligaments

Question 4

synovial membrane

Answer 4

loose membrane lines the capsule with numerous folds

Question 5

dorsal radiocarpal ligament

Answer 5

posterior border of distal radius to scaphoid lunate and triquetral

Question 6

palmar radiocarpal ligament

Answer 6

distal radius and styloid process to anterior surface of scaphoid lunate and triquetral with fibres to capitate

Question 7

palmar ulcocarpal ligament

Answer 7

articular disc and ulnar styloid process to lunate and triquetral

Question 8

radial collateral carpal ligament

Answer 8

styloid process to lateral side of scaphod extends to trapezium in continuation of the midcarpal collateral ligament

Question 9

ulnar collateral carpal ligament

Answer 9

ulnar styloid process to pisiform extends to triquetral in continuation of the midcarpal collateral ligament
blends with flexor retinaculum

Question 10

Midcarpal

Answer 10

synovial complex saddle joint biaxial

Question 11

articular surface

Answer 11

proximal row of carpal bones to distal row of carpal bones

Question 12

capsule

Answer 12

fibrous capsule runs between row of bones strengthened by colletera ligament

Question 13

synovial membrane

Answer 13

lines the capsule and all non articular and articular surfaces

Question 14

palmar intercarpal ligament

Answer 14

proximal bones to head of capitate

Question 15

dorsal intercarpal ligament

Answer 15

between proximal and distal rows

Question 16

intercarpal joint

Answer 16

synovial plane

Question 17

articular suface

Answer 17

adajacent bones of the row

Question 18

movement

Answer 18

small glides only capitate allows significant movement
