Q

During radial deviation what will happen to the scaphoid, lunate and triquetrum?

A

Scaphoid will get longer, the lunate and the triquetrum (which are attached to the scaphoid) flex also.

Q

During ulnar deviation what will happen to the triquetrum, scaphoid and lunate?

A
  • For ulnar deviation to occur the triquetrum needs to slide under the hammate to get out of the way of the ulnar. Due to ligaments the scaphoid and lunate will follow the triquetrum.

Q

What will happenif the scapho-lunate ligament is severed?

A

The lunate will only be able to be pulled into extension by the triquetrum, so it will be displaced dorsally.

Q

What will happen if the triquetro-lunate ligament is severed?

Q

Does radial deviation or ulnar deviation cause the scaphoid to flex more?

A

Radial deviation will cause the scaphoid to flex more. Ulnar deviation will cause less flexion.

Q

What is dorsal intercalated segment instability?

How would you identify this?

A
  • Disruption of the dorsal portion of the scapho-lunate interosseous ligament and the radioscaphocapitate ligament.
  • volar radial lip and a wider spacing

Q

What is the primary function of the extensor pollicus longus?

A

Primary function is to extend the IP joint when there is EPL pathology.

17
Q

What is the primary supinator and adductor of the thumb?

A

Extensor pollicus longus.

18
Q

What are the primary MP joint flexors and IP joint extensors?

A
  • The intrinsics
19
Q

What are the interosseous muscles?

What is there innervation?

A 
Dorsal abductors (4) DAB
Palmar Adductors (3) PAD - pinky finger does not get a adductor 
- The ulnar nerve
20
Q

What is the Abductor digiti quinti muscle?

A

It is an abductor of the pinky.

21
Q

What does the superficial head of the dorsal interossei do?

A
  • Abducts the MPJ (flexes)
22
Q

What does the deep head of the dorsal intersossei do?

A

Flexes the MPJ (abducts) and extends the IPJs

23
Q

What are the primary flexors of the MP joints?

A

The intersossi muscles**

lumbricals have a much more minor role in flexion.

24
Q

What muscles make up the Thenars?

A

Oppocins Pollicis
Abductor Pollicis Brevis
Flexor Pollicis Brevis
OAF

25
Q

What muscles make up the Hypothenars?

A

Oppocins Digiti Minimi
Flexor Digiti minimi brevis
Abductor digiti minimi
OFA

26
Q

What are the median nerve innervated intrinsics?

A

Lumbricals (index and middle)
Opponens Pollicis
Abductor Pollicis Brevis
Flexor Pollicis Brevis

27
Q

What side of there respective digits are the lumbricals on?

A

The radial side

28
Q

What group of muscles extend all joints of the fingers?

A

The extrinsics

29
Q

What action does intrinsic muscles have?

A

Flex MP joints

Extend IP joints

30
Q

Where doe the lumbrical muscles originate?

What do they join?

A
  • Originates on the FDP tendon
  • ## Joins radial lateral band
31
Q

What is unique to the lumbrical muscles?

A

It will pull the flexor digitorum profundus tendon distally and the radial lateral band proximally.

32
Q

How are lumbricals increase the dexterity of the fingers?

A
  • They take away a little more tone from the antagonistic muscles to allow for smoother and faster contraction.
