Separate Belly and Tendon of Flexor Digitorum Superficialis to the Fifth Digit.
Variation in the origin of long flexor tendons in the anterior compartment of forearm is common. During routine cadaveric dissection at Melaka Manipal Medical College (Manipal Campus), we observed a separate muscle belly and tendon of flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) to the fifth digit in the right upper limb of a 60 year-old male cadaver. The anomalous muscle belly originated from the comm...

متن کاملRupture of the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle belly during isometric weight training.
Isometric weight training is a well-recognised technique used by fitness trainers to increase muscle strength. We report a case of a flexor digitorum superficialis muscle belly rupture that occurred during this form of muscle training. Rupture of the belly of the forearm flexor muscles is rare. When the muscle undergoes tractional force in isometric weight training, there is a potential for it ...
متن کاملAnomalous flexor digitorum superficialis muscle belly presenting as a mass within the palm.
Anomalies of the flexor digitorum superficialis muscle are extremely uncommon and usually present as a painful mass or pseudotumour within the palm. Diagnosis may be difficult because many other soft tissue tumours (lipomas, ganglions, giant cell tumours and hamartomas) may present similarly. Magnetic resonance imaging helps to define the extent and characteristics of this anomalous muscle bell...
متن کاملSeparate muscle bundles of the flexor digitorum superficialis overlying the ulnar nerve.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to elucidate the morphological charac-teristics of the muscle bundles of the flexor digitorum superficialis (FDS) attached to the intermuscular aponeurosis (IMA) and any related structure that could potentially compress the ulnar nerve. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty embalmed limbs of 34 adult cadavers were studied. RESULTS The FDS arose as multiple separat...
