Carpals, Metacarpals, and Phalanges• Wrist:
– Consists of eight small bones called carpals– Two rows
• Proximal row: Scaphoid, Lunate, Triquetrum, and Pisiform
• Distal row: Trapezium, Trapezoid, Capitate, Hamate• Palm:
– Consists of the Metacarpals– Five metacarpals numbered I through V with number I being
the thumb– Each metacarpal has a base, shaft, and a head
• The base articulates with the carpals while the head articulates with the phalanges.
4
• Fingers:– 14 phalanges in each hand (singular is phalanx)– Each phalanx also consists of a base, shaft, and head– The thumb only contains two phalanges, a proximal and
distal one– The remaining fingers each contain three phalanges
(proximal, middle, and distal)– Joints formed between phalanges:
• Proximal interphalangeal joint (PIP)– Joint formed between proximal and middle
phalanges• Distal interphalangeal joint (DIP)
– Joint formed between middle and distal phalanges

Anatomical Review of the Hand
6
Articular Anatomy of the WristThe Wrist and hand are composed of 29 bones forming more than 20 joints. This allows us to perform fine delicate motor skills to forceful activity
2 joints make up the wrist:Radiocarpal: elliptical joint formed by the concavity of the radius and the convexity formed by the scaphoid and lunate.
Ulnarcarpal joint: not a true articulation between the ulna and triquetrum. This articulation gives stability to the wrist. Movement within this joint has not been clearly defined.
7
Articular Anatomy of the HandFour joints make up the hand:1. Midcarpal joints: Gliding joints between carpal bones2. Carpometacarpal joints: a. Carpometacarpal joint I: Rotated 90 degrees from metacarpal
II. A Saddle joint allows for flexion/extension and abduction and adduction. b. Carpometacarpal joints II through IV: Gliding joints allowing slight sliding and flexion/extension.3. Metocarpophalangeal joints: Ellipsoidal joints between the metacarpals and the proximal phalanges allowing for flexion/extension and abduction/adduction.4. Interphalangeal joints: Hinge joints between the phalanges allowing for flexion and extension
8
Soft Tissue of the Wrist and HandRadiocarpal Ligament: Connects the styloid process of the radius and distal aspect of the ulna to the scaphoid bone.
Ulnar Collateral Ligament: attaches the styloid process of the ulna to the pisiform
Radial Collateral Ligament: Attaches the styloid process of the radius to the radial side of the scaphoid and trapezium
Flexor retinaculum: Wide thick ligament connecting the pisiform and hamate to the scaphoid and trapezium
Palmar aponeurosis: formed from the deep fascia of the anterior hand, extending from the flexor retinaculum to the four fingers.

1. Wrist flexion2. Wrist extension3. Abduction (Radial Deviation)4. Adduction (Ulnar Deviation)5. Wrist Circumduction
11
Ranges of Motion of the Fingers
Each student should be able to describe and demonstrate the following movements:
1. Finger flexion2. Finger extension3. Finger abduction4. Finger adduction5. Finger circumduction
12
Ranges of Motion of the Thumb
Each student should be able to describe and demonstrate the following movements:

13
Palpation of the wrist and fingers
Carpals: Sitting; Locate the ulnar and radial styloid processes, slide your fingers distally, and then passively move the wrist in all directions and feel the carpals shift around a bit.
Pisiform: Sitting; Locate the anterior wrist crease, move your fingers toward the pinky side, feel for the rounded shaped pisiform under the tissue of the palm.
Hook of the Hamate: Sitting; Locate the pisiform again, draw an imaginary line from the pisiform to the index finger. Slide off the pisiform toward the index finger, about 3/4 of an inch from the pisiform feel for a small raised area.
Metacarpals: Sitting; Palpate the bones of the palm both on the anterior and posterior surfaces. Feel the bases at the carpometacarpal joints, the shafts, and the enlarged heads at the metacarpophalangeal joints.
Phalanges: Sitting; Locate the distal metacarpals again, then move distal palpating all three phalanges of the fingers (proximal, middle, and distal). Feel for the base, shafts, and heads of each phalange.
