What are hand ligaments?

Hand ligaments are hard but flexible connective tissues that connect the bones of the human hand with the bones of the wrist and forearm. While fibrous tissue strips called ligaments can serve to connect bones to cartilage or other tissues, they most often combine bones to the bone and serve to maintain intact joints. From a purely anatomical point of view, only the ligaments that connect the bones of the hand to each other call hand ligaments. The ligaments of the fingers and those that connect the hand to the wrist and forearm are not considered to be the ligaments of the hand. In patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, transverse carpal liga is affected. It is located near the point where the hand meets the wrist and is part of the structure known as the carpal tunnel, which is Passageway, through which the middle nerve enters the hand from the forearm. Two large bonds are bound by the bones of the hand and the wrist to the radius, the bone of the forearm. The first is on the back of the hand and is called the dorsal radiocarpal ligaments and the second, on the palms of the hand, is called memorial radiocarpal ligaments.

Hand and wrist have many small bonds that hold the bones together. The dorsal ligaments are on the back of the hand and include carpometakarpal ligaments, dorsal metacarpal ligaments, dorsal inter -crims, dorsal radiocarpal ligaments and radial collateral ligament. Vollar bonds are on the palm side of the hand and include the ligaments of Palmar Carpo-Metakarpal, Pisometacarpal ligaments and a palmar intermediate, ulnocarpal and radiocarpal ligaments.

several bonds connect the bones of the fingers it to each other and into the bones of the hand. These bonds are divided into three main groups, Volar, dorsal and superficial. All these ties cooperate and many of them overlap.

Volar finger on the palm of the hand is further divided into subgroups. Deep Volar bonds run along the fingers and are under superficial volar bonds, which also run along the fingers, but are closer to the skin. The ligaments, pairs of small bonds that form the shape of "x" overEach finger joint is superficial volar ligaments. The transverse metacarpal ligament intersects the hand from side to side on the side of the palm and connects the metacarpal bones near the place where the fingers are joined to hand.

The

superficial dorsal ligaments of the fingers run along the fingers on the back of the hand. They are connected to the side ligaments that run on the sides of the fingers. The group of side bonds also include oblique retinacular -outs and collateral bonds found on each finger and provide the structure and stability of the fingers.
