T/F the ulna doesn’t articulate with the carpels.
•True, articular disc inbetween
Princeps pollicis artery may give rise to….
•Radialis indicis artery
Pronator teres
- Proximal: coronoid process of ulna
- Distal: middle of lateral surface of radius
- Actions: pronates and flexes forearm at elbow
- Innervation: median nerve
- Large head on medial epicondyle of humerus
Flexor carpi radialis
- Proximal: medial epicondyle of humerus (common flexor origin)
- Distal: base of 2nd metacarpal
- Actions: flexes and abducts hand at wrist, abduction same as radial deviation
- Innervation: median
Palmaris longus
- Proximal: medial epicondyle of humerus
- Distal: flexor retinaculum, continuous with palmar aponeurosis
- Actions: flexes hand at wrist, tenses palmar aponeurosis

Flexor carpi ulnaris
- Proximal: medial epicondyle of humerus
- Distal: pisiform, hook of hamate, 5th metacarpal
- Actions: flexes and adducts hand at wrist
- Innervation: ulnar nerve
Flexor digitorum superficialis
- Proximal: medial epicondyle of humerus, superior 1/2 of anterior border of radius
- Distal: shafts of middle phalanges of medial 4 digits
- Actions: flexes middle phalanges at proximal interphalangeal joint, flexes proximal phalanges at metacarpophalangeal joints
- Innervation: median
Flexor digitorum profundus
- Proximal: proximal 3/4 of medial and anterior surfaces of ulna and interosseous membrane
- Distal: bases of distal phalanges of 2nd-5th fingers
- Actions: flexes distal phalanges at interphalangeal joints (power grip)
- Innervation: median (anterior interosseus nerve branch) and ulnar
Flexor pollicis longus
- Proximal: anterior surface of radius and interosseous membrane
- Distal: base of distal phalanx of thumb
- Actions: flexes thumb
- Innervation: median via anterior interosseous
Pronator quadratus
- Proximal: distal 1/4 of anterior surface of ulna
- Distal: distal 1/4 of anterior surface of radius
- Actions: pronates forearm, deep fibers bind radius and ulna together
- Innervation: median via anterior interosseous
What keeps tendons in place and wraps in synovial sheathes in the wrist?
•Extensor Retinaculum
Innervation of Posterior forearm is supplied by?
- Radial Nerve
- Superficial branch runs lateral, beneath brachioradialis
- deep branch posterior, becomes posterior interosseous
What are the superficial extensors of the forearm?
- Brachioradialis (a flexor)
- Extensor carpi radialis logus and brevis
- Extensor digitorum/digiti minimi/carpi ulnaris
Brachioradialis
- Proximal: proximal 2/3 of supraepicondylar ridge of humerus
- Distal: distal radius, proximal to styloid process
- Actions: flexes forearm when it is pronated (about midprone position)
- Innervation: radial
Extensor carpi radialis longus
- Proximal: lateral supracondylar ridge of humerus
- Distal: dorsal aspect of base of 2nd metacarpal
- Actions: extend and abduct hand at wrist
- Innervation: radial
Extensor carpi radialis brevis
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus (common extensor origin)
- Distal: dorsal aspect of base of 3rd metacarpal
- Actions: extend and abduct hand at wrist
- Innervation: deep branch of radial
Extensor digitorum
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus
- Distal: extensor expansions of medial 4 fingers (often just 3)
- Actions: extends medial 4 fingers at metacarpophalangeal joints and somewhat at interphalangeal joints
- Innervation: posterior interosseous
Extensor digiti minimi
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus
- Distal: extensor expansion of 5th finger
- Actions: extends 5th finger at metacarpophalangeal joint and secondarily at interphalangeal joints
- Innervation: posterior interosseous
Extensor carpi ulnaris
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus and posterior border of ulna
- Distal: dorsal aspect of base of 5th metacarpal
- Actions: extends and adducts hand at wrist
- Innervation: posterior interosseous
Abductor pollicis longus, extensor pollicis longus/brevis are call the _________ muscles.
•outcropping
Supinator
- Proximal: lateral epicondyle of humerus, radial collateral and anular ligaments, ulnar crest
- Distal: proximal 1/3 of radius (nearly all surfaces, as it wraps around the bone)
- Actions: supinates forearm, bringing radius back to anatomical position
- Innervation: deep branch of raidal
Extensor indicis
- Proximal: posterior surface of distal 1/3 of ulna and interosseous membrane
- Distal: extensor expansion of 2nd finger
- Actions: independent extension of 2nd finger, but also helps with extension of wrist
- Innervation: posterior interosseous (continuation of deep branch of radial)
Abductor pollicis longus
- Proximal: posterior surface of proximal 1/2 of ulna and raidius, interosseous membrane
- Distal: base of 1st metacarpal
- Actions: abducts thumb and extends it at carpometacarpal joint
- Innervation: posterior interosseous
