What is the anatomical snuffbox?

A triangular hollow on the thenar aspect of dorsum of hand. Prominent with thumb extension.

Where is the mobile wad of three?

It is located on the lateral forearm; radial compartment.

Extensor Carpi Ulnaris

O: CET from lateral epicondyle I: Base of 5th metacarpal bone, ulnar side A: Extends & adducts wrist Innervation: Radial nerve (C6-C8)

Extensor Digiti Minimi

O: CET from lateral epicondyle I: Into extensor expansion of 5th finger with extensor digitorum tendon. A: Extends MCP & IP joints of little finger. Assists in abduction of 5th digit. Innervation: Post. interosseous n. of deep branch of radial nerve (C7, C8)

Extensor Carpi Radialis Brevis

O: CET from lateral epicondyle of humerus, elbow LCL I: Dorsal surface of base of 3rd MC bone A: Extension & assists abduction of wrist Innervation: Radial nerve (C6, C7)

Extensor Digitorum

O: CET from lateral epicondyle. I: By 4 tendons into base of middle phalanx; base of distal phalanx A: Extends MCP joints & IP joints of 2nd-5th digits. Assists in abduction of 2-4 digits; assists extension & abduction of wrist. Innervation: Deep branch of radial n. (C6, C8)

Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus

O: Distal 1/3 of lateral supracondylar ridge; lateral inter muscular septum. I: Dorsal surface of base of 2nd MC, radial side. A: Extends & abducts the wrist; assists elbow flexion Innervation: Radial nerve (C6, C7)

Extensor pollicis longus

O: Middle 1/3 of post. surface of ulna distal to origin of abductor pollicis longus, IOM I: Base of distal phalanx of thumb, dorsal surface A: Extends the IP jt. & assists extension of MCP & CMC jt. of thumb. Assists in abduction & extension of wrist. Innervation: Post. interosseous n. of deep branch of radial nerve (C7, C8)

Extensor pollicis brevis

O: Post. surface of body of radius distal to origin of abd. pollicis longus, IOM. I: Base of prox. phalanx of dorsum of thumb A: Extends MCP of the thumb, extends & abducts CMC jt. Also radially deviates wrist. Innervation: Post. interosseous n. of deep branch of radial nerve (C7, C8)

Abductor pollicis longus

O: Post. surface of body of ulna distal to origin of supinator; IOM, post. surface middle 1/3 body of radius. I: Base of 1st MC bone, radial side A: Abduction & extension of CMC joint of thumb; abduction and flexion of wrist. Innervation: Post. interosseous n. of deep branch of radial nerve (C7, C8)

Extensor Indicis

O: Post. surface of ulna body distal to origin of extensor pollicis longus. I: Into extensor expansion of index finger with extensor digitorum longus tendon. A: Extension of MCP & IP joints of index finger. may assist in adduction of index finger. Innervation: Post. interosseous n. of deep branch of radial nerve (C7, C8)

What are the borders of the anatomical snuffbox?

Radially - APL Medially - EPB Posteromedial - EPL Floor - Radial styloid process; scaphoid; trapezium & base of 1 MC.

What is found in the mobile wad of three?

The radial nerve and artery lie between the mobile wad of three (radial compartment) and the deep & superficial flexor compartment.
