54
Ulnar artery
- enters anterior to flexor retinaculum in Guyon's canal

- gives rise to the deep palmar branch and the superifical palmar arch (which has three digital arteries)
55
The three digital arteries of the superical palmar arch
- made by the ulnar artery
- common palmar
- palm metacarpal
- proper palmar digital
56
Route of the radial artery
- Curves dorsally around scaphoid and trapzium in the floor of the snuff box
- reaches palm by passing between head of first dorsal interossei
- turns medially and passes between heads of adductor pollicis
- the joins with the ulnar artery to form the deep palmar arch
57
Extensor Mechanism
- Complex network of ligamentous and muscular units that coorinate to product extension of the digits
- Interossei (Dorsal and Palmar)
- Lumbricals
- Oblique Retinacular ligament (ORL)
- Extensor digitorum
58
Extensor expansion what is it?
triangular tendinosis aponerosis wrapping around dorsum and sides of the metacarpal heads and base of proximal phalanx
59
Extensor digitorum hood
- splits into median bands and lateral bands
| - anchored on the side by palmar ligamen
60
Oblique retinacular ligament
- taut during flexion of DIP and this puls the PIP into flexion
- extending the PIP joint pulls the DIP into exension
(When you pull of the DIP with the ORL it makes the PIP follow)
