BM 1041:03 Lecture Notes - Lecture 24: Distal Radioulnar Articulation, Extensor Pollicis Longus Muscle, Ulnar Styloid Process
Describe and demonstrate the main anatomical landmarks of the
radius and ulna. Identify the bones of the wrist including the names
of the individual carpal bones.
Forearm is part of upper limb extending between elbow joint and wrist joint

Document Summary
Describe and demonstrate the main anatomical landmarks of the radius and ulna. Identify the bones of the wrist including the names of the individual carpal bones. Forearm is part of upper limb extending between elbow joint and wrist joint. Oblique line, near roughened area for pronator teres. Radial styloid process - insertion of brachioradialis and radial collateral ligament) Anterior border - sharp ridge forming lateral margin. Large anterior and posterior surfaces, narrow medial and lateral surfaces. Dorsal tubercle - helps keep extensor pollicis longus in place, acts as pulley for tendon of extensor muscle of thumb. Facet of scaphoid - articulates with scaphoid carpal bone. Ulnar styloid process - attached to ulnar collateral ligament and palmar ulnocarpal ligament. Facet for articular disc - for fibrocartilaginous disc. Some lovers try positions that they cant handle. Phalanges = bones of the digits (thumb has 2, rest of digits has 3)
