Document Summary
Rupture of palmar volar plate: ip joint hyperextension with compensatory flexion at distal ip joint. Rupture of dorsal plate: extension compromised, compensatory flexion from fds/p. Rupture of extension expansion at distal ip joint. Fds works on middle phalanges, fdp works on distal phalanges. Tendons of fds, common with tendons of fdp in ulnar bursa (communicates with sheath for little finger) Fibrous digital sheaths - attached to volar plate. Spread of infection in synovial sheath of little finger into ulnar bursa. De quervain"s tenosynovitis - inflammation of synovial sheath. Supplies most muscles of anterior compartment of forearm: passes through carpal tunnel. Skin - lateral 3 digits + nail beds. *susceptible to compression injury (or to associated blood supply) in carpal tunnel (carpal tunnel syndrome) Note distribution to skin & potential motor & sensory loss if injured - wasting of thenar eminence.
