What is an extrinsic muscle?

An extrinsic muscle has its proximal attachment above the wrist and its distal attachment below the wrist.

What is an intrinsic muscle?

An intrinsic muscle has both attachments below the wrist, the nine intrinsic muscles include the flexor and abductor pollicis brevis, the opponens and adductor pollicis, the flexor/.abductor/opponens digiti minimi, the interossei and the lumbricales.

The thumb is the first digit.

It has three joints: The carpometacarpal joint (CMC), the metacarpophalangeal joint (MCP) and the Interphalangeal Joint (IP)

What is the purpose of the retinaculum?

It holds the entrinsic tendons close to the wrist.

The hand is the key point of function for the upper extremity.

It is extremely useful, versatile and complex.

The hand is the distal end of the upper extremity.

It is made up of the thumb, finger metacarpals and phalanges.

The 3 arches responsible for palmar concavity are;

Proximal carpal arch, distal carpal arch, longitudinal arch.

Which of the thumb opposition motions is an accessory motion?

Rotation

There are two interphalangeal joints in the fingers:

The PIP joint of the fingers and the DIP joint.

List the extrinsic muscles of the hand

The extrinsic muscles include the flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus, extensor digitorum, extensor digiti minimi, and extgensor indicis muscles of the fingers. Extrinsic muscles of the thumb are the flexor policis longus, abductor pollicis longus, and extensor pollicis longus and brevis.

Which tendons and nerve run through the carpal tunnel?

The flexor digitorium superficialis and profundus and the flexor pollicis longus muscles and the median nerve run through the carpal tunnel.

What structures make up the carpal tunnel?

The floor of the carpal tunnel is made up of the carpal bones, and the ceiling is the transverse carpal ligament portions of the flexor retinaculum.

Flexor Retinaculum is a:

fibrous ligament band that spans the anterior surface of the wrist in a mediolateral direction.

The MCP joint allows only:

flexion and extension and is a uniaxial joint.
