Q

Long Flexor Tendons & Synovial Sheaths:

Long tendons of:

Flexor Digitorum superficialis

Flexor Digitorum Profundus

A

enter common flexor sheath (ulnar bursa) beneath flexor retinaculum

4 tendons of each enter individual synovial sheath

synovial sheath for digit 5 continuous w/ ulnar bursa

long tendon of flexor pollicis longus has a synovial sheath separate from ulnar bursa

17
Q

Tensosynovitis

A

Infections in digital synovial sheath

Inflammation of tendon and sheath

5th digit infection can spread to carpal tunnel and forearm (sheath continuous w/ ulnar bursa)

18
Q

Abduction & Adduction of fingers and thumb

A

toward the middle digit

19
Q

Palmar aspect of Hand:

Thenar Eminence

A

Abductor pollicis brevis

Flexor pollicis brevis : deep and superficial head

Opponens pollicis

Adductor pollicis: transverse and oblique head

20
Q

Power grip

A

Flexor digitorum profundus

21
Q

Movements of the thumb

A

Abduction

Adduction

Extension

Flexion

Opposition

Reposition

22
Q

Innervation of the Hand (motor)

Superficial branch of Ulnar Nerve

A

Hypothenar muscles (5th digit)

3rd and 4th lumbricals

Palmar interosseous muscles (1-4)

Dorsal interosseous muscles (1-3)

Some pollicis brevis

23
Q

Innervation (motor)

Deep branch of the Ulnar Nerve

A

Adductor pollicis (transverse and oblique head)

Deep portion of flexor pollicis brevis

24
Q

Innervation:

Recurrent Branch of Median Nerve

A

Thenar muscles (1st digit)

(except deep portion of flexor pollicis brevis)

1st and 2nd lumbrical muscles

25
Q

Innervation of the Hand (sensory distribution)

A

INSERT PIC on website

26
Q

Median Nerve

A

Deep to palmar aponeurosis

Recurrent branch: very superficial = easily injured

innervates thenar eminence AND

Palmar aspect of 1-3 digits and palm

27
Q

Carpal Tunnel Syndrom

A

Transverse carpal ligament medial to thenar eminence

pinches down on median nerve

released by cutting transverse carpal ligament

28
Q

Blood supply to forearm and hand (review)

Anterior Forearm:

A

Ulnar artery

Anterior interosseous artery

29
Q

Blood Supply: Posterior Forearm

A

Radial artery

recurrent interosseous artery

posterior interosseous artery

ulnar artery

30
Q

Superficial Palmar Arch

A

Ulnar artery

gives rise to common digital arteries

which become proper palmar digital arteries

31
Q

Deep Palmar Arch

A

Radial artery

gives rise to pinceps pollicis artery

which gives rise to radialis indics artery

32
Q

Dorsal Carpal Arch

A

Dorsal aspect of hand

Gives rise to dorsal metacarpal arteries

normally has contribution from anterior interosseous artery

33
Q
