  • Front
  • Back
RADIOCARPAL JOINT
articulation b/w radius and proximal carpals; biaxial, condyloid joint filled with synovial fluid (AKA wrist joint)
LIGAMENTS THAT SUPPORT THE RADIOCARPAL JOINT
medial (ulnar collateral ligament), lateral (radial) collateral ligament
MEDIAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (WRIST)
connects the ulnar styloid to the triquetrum and hamate; limits radial deviation
LATERAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (WRIST)
connects the radial styloid to the scaphoid and trapezium; limits ulnar deviation
MIDCARPAL JOINTS
articulation b/w the proximal and distal row of carpals; non-axial, plane joints – gliding movements of the carpals bones
LIGAMENTS THAT SUPPORT THE MIDCARPAL JOINT
dorsal intercarpal ligament, palmar intercarpal ligament
DORSAL INTERCARPAL LIGAMENT
connects radius to the proximal carpals posteriorly; stabilizes carpals during wrist flexion
PALMAR INTERCARPAL LIGAMENT
connects radius to proximal carpals anteriorly; stabilizes carpals during wrist extension
CARPOMETACARPAL (CMC) JOINT
articulation b/w the distal row of carpals and the metacarpals; biaxial, modified saddle
EXTRA MOBILITU OF 5TH CMC JOINT ALLOW
finger opposition
LIGAMENT THAT SUPPORT THE CMC JOINT
dorsal metacarpal ligaments
DORSAL METACARPAL LIGAMENTS
connects the carpals to the metacarpals
INTERMETACARPAL JOINTS
articulation b/w metacarpals
LIGAMENT THAT SUPPORT THE INTERMETACARPAL JOINT
dorsal intermetacarpal ligaments
DORSAL INTERMETACARPAL LIGAMENT
connects metacarpal to metacarpal
METACARPOPHALANGEAL (MCP) JOINT
articulation b/w the metacarpals and the proximal phalanx; thumb – uniaxial hinge, fingers - biaxial, condyloid
LIGAMENTS THAT SUPPORT THE MCP JOINT
medial (ulnar) collateral ligament, lateral (radial) collateral ligament
MEDIAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (MCP)
connects the metacarpal to the proximal phalanx medially
LATERAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (MCP)
connects the metacarpal to the proximal phalanx laterally
LIGAMENTS THAT SUPPORT PIP
medial (ulnar) collateral ligament, lateral (radial) collateral ligament
MEDIAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (PIP)
connects proximal phalanx to middle phalanx medially
LATERAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (PIP)
connects proximal phalanx to middle phalanx laterally
DISTAL INTERPHALANGEAL JOINT (DIP)
articulation b/w middle and distal phalanx; uniaxial, hinge
LIGAMENTS THAT SUPPORT THE DIP JOINT
medial (ulnar) collateral ligament, lateral (radial) collateral ligament
MEDIAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (DIP)
connects the middle phalanx to distal phalanx medially
LATERAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT (DIP)
connects the middle phalanx to distal phalanx laterally
INTERPHALAGEAL (IP) JOINT
articulation b/w proximal phalanx and the distal phalanx of thumb; uniaxial, hinge
