Fiber length variability within the flexor carpi ulnaris and flexor carpi radialis muscles: implications for surgical tendon transfer.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to understand the detailed architectural properties of the human flexor carpi radialis (FCR) and flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) muscles and their implications for tendon transfer surgery. METHODS Muscle fiber length was measured in 6 separate regions of the FCU and FCR from 10 cadaveric specimens. Sarcomere length was measured by laser diffraction for normali...
متن کاملLesions of the flexor carpi radialis tendon and sheath causing pain at the wrist.
Pain at the front of the radial side of the wrist or at the base of the thenar eminence is a common complaint. Conditions such as osteoarthritis of the first carpo-metacarpal joint, ununited fractures of the scaphoid bone and ganglia at the front of the wrist are easily recognised but the diagnosis may not be straightforward. Since 1952 we have operated on twelve patients who had pain from vari...
متن کاملExtensor carpi radialis brevis. An anatomical analysis of its origin.
We studied the origin of extensor carpi radialis brevis using 40 fresh frozen human cadaver specimens. Ten were stained with haematoxylin and eosin and trichrome which showed the collagenous structure of the extensor tendons at their origin. Gross anatomical observation showed that there was no definitive separation between brevis and communis at the osseotendinous junction. The histological fi...
متن کاملAbsence of flexor carpi radialis: A rare anatomical variation with clinical significance
Sir, The importance of flexor carpi radialis (FCR) as a donor muscle in tendon transfers,[1,2] as a tendon graft[3,4] and as an anatomical landmark has been well established. The anatomical variations of FCR are very rare but can have great significance in such cases.[5,6] We report a rare case of congenital absence of FCR muscle found during an elective surgery of bone grafting for scaphoid no...
متن کاملEndoscopic Ganglionectomy of Palmar Ganglion via Flexor Carpi Radialis Tendoscopy
Palmar ganglion is rare. Deep palmar ganglion usually arises from the wrist joint and may cause compression neuropathy. Superficial palmar ganglion may arise from the flexor tendons of the wrist. The chance of compression neuropathy is expected to be less than deep palmar ganglion. However, there is a higher chance of perforation through the skin and the ganglion may affect hand grip. Open rese...
