ligaments and tendons muscles nerves blood vessels The front, or palm-side, of the hand is referred to as the palmar side. The back of the hand is called the dorsal side. Bones and Joints There are 27 bones within the wrist and hand. The wrist itself contains eight small bones, called...
knowing the general muscles and movements of the hand may be helpful in providing a baseline comprehension of the biomechanics of the hand. The first step in reaching this point is understanding the structures involved in hand biomechanics. These structures are primarily bones,ligaments,tendons, and ...

Results and ConclusionOveruse may cause stenosis in the fibrous outer layer of the retinacula and the A1 annular ligaments as well as tendinosis. In contrast, proliferative tenosynovitis is a disease of the synovial inner layer of the tendon sheath with tendon infiltration and tendinitis. Pyogenic ...
Hand injuries at work can cause damage to the ligaments and tendons, leading to conditions like skiers’ thumb and mallet fingers. Similarly, elbow and shoulder injuries frequently occur in various workplaces. These workplace injuries are often the result of a sudden accident or repetitive actions...
important biomechanical advantages of the human hand from a roboticist's perspective. They designed a biomimetic robotic hand that closely mimics its human counterpart with all the finer details—artificial joint capsules, crocheted ligaments and tendons, laser-cut extensor hood, and elastic pulley ...
The carpal tunnel is a narrow tunnel formed by the bones and other tissues of the wrist that protect the median nerve. The median nerve provides feeling in the thumb, index, middle and ring fingers. But when other tissues in the carpal tunnel, such as ligaments and tendons, get swollen ...
. Fourteen phalangeal bones constitute the four fingers and thumb (three in each finger, two in the thumb). Ligaments interconnect the bones of the hand. The bones of the digits are anchored to muscles in the hand and to muscles in the arms and shoulders, through connections to tendons, ...
The human hand consists of 27 bones, along with numerous muscles, tendons, and ligaments that allow for a wide range of motion and dexterity. Our hands are also incredibly sensitive, with thousands of nerve endings that allow us to feel even the slightest touch. Feet are equally important, ...
