Since the anatomy and actual existence of the A5 pulley have been variably reported in the literature, we sought to better define its macroscopic and microscopic structure. Thirty-one A5 pulleys were dissected from 32 fingers. The average proximal to distal length was 3.8mm; the average width ...
In spite of the difficulties to remember the anatomy of a URL, you should try to know those five parts: protocol, sub-domain and domain, path, query and parameters, and fragment. By knowing those names and conventions, you will not be lost in the cyberspace, although some people say doin...
Behind the fetlock joint are two bones known as the sesamoids. These bones provide a groove to hold the tendons of the leg, which act as a pulley system for movement of the lower leg. The pastern bones occur above and below the pastern joint with the long pastern on top, between the ...
The basin proximal slope is the segment of the GPEB proximal to the basin triangles, which is shaped like a rounded groove of a pulley. The proximal end of the basin proximal slope is demarcated by a transition from the tubular shape of the distal egl trough to the shape of a pulley ...
We studied the structure and course of the flexor pollicis longus tendon and its action at the joint. Four patients had secondary deformity associated with an absent A2 pulley and a tendon that clung to the radial side of a small thumb. In patients with primary deformity, the flex...
foramen and somewhat nearer thenosethan the origin of the rectus medialis. It ends in a rounded tendon that passes through a fibrous ring, the trochlea, that is attached to the frontal bone. The trochlea acts as a pulley. The tendon is attached to the sclera back of the equator of the...

All of the articular surfaces of the ankle joint are covered with hyaline cartilage. There are three articulations in the ankle joint: The distal end of the tibia articulates with the trochlea of the talus, a pulley-shaped rounded superior articular surface. The trochlea of the talus is ...

The patella, commonly known as the ‘kneecap’, is a sesamoid bone that sits within the tendon of the quadriceps femoris. It serves a protective function for the knee and facilitates movement by acting as a pulley for the quadriceps femoris muscle. The knee joint is quite a complex ...
