Term
Flexor Retinacolumn
Definition
fibrous band that spans the anterior surface of the wrist in a horizontal direction. Its function is to hold these tendons close to the wrist. prevents the two sides of the carpal bones from spreading apart
Term
palmar carpal
Definition
more próximal and superficial than the transverse carpal ligament. attaches to the styloid process of the radius and ulna and crosses over to the flexor muscle
Term
transverse ligament
Definition
deeper and more distal. attaches to the pisiform and the hook of the hamate on the media side and to the scaphoid.
Term
extensor retinaculumn
Definition
attaches medially to the styloid process of the ulna and to the triquetreum, pisiform, and the lateral side of the radius. it holds the extensor tendons close to the wrist, especially during extension
Term
extensor expansion
