37
Q

ABdutor Pollicis Longus - Innervation

A

PIN C7, C8

38
Q

42
Q

Extensor Pollicis Brevis - Innervation

A

PIN C7, C8

43
Q

54
Q

Extensor Indicis - Dorsal Compartment

A

4th (lies ulnar to ED)

55
Q

Boutonniere Deformity

A

Central band/slip broken –> FDS over-powers so extreme flexion @ PIP –> Lateral bands slip velar & assist PIP flexion

56
Q

Swan Neck Deformity

A

FDS cut OR extensor forces dominate -> PIP hyperextension & DIP flexion –> Distal lateral bands slackened & unable to extend DIP

57
Q

Mallet Deformity

A

Terminal extensor tendons cut –> FDS over-powers –> DIP flexion (may lead to Swan Neck Deformity since ALL extensor forces now acting ONLY at PIP)
