  2. De Quervain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Quervain_syndrome

    De Quervain syndrome occurs when two tendons that control movement of the thumb become constricted by their tendon sheath in the wrist. [3][5][6] This results in pain and tenderness on the thumb side of the wrist. [3] Radial abduction of the thumb is painful. [6] On some occasions, there is uneven movement or triggering of the thumb with radial ...

    Arrow marks where the pain is worsened. Finkelstein's test is a test used to diagnose de Quervain's tenosynovitis in people who have wrist pain. [1] Classical descriptions of the Finkelstein's test are when the examiner grasps the thumb and ulnar deviates the hand sharply. [1] If sharp pain occurs along the distal radius (top of forearm, close ...

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Abductor_pollicis_longus_muscle

    The abductor pollicis longus muscle is innervated by the posterior interosseous nerve, which is a continuation of the deep branch of the radial nerve after it passes through the supinator muscle. Abductor pollicis longus lies close to the radial nerve. [4] The posterior interosseous nerve is derived from spinal segments C7 & C8.

  5. Wartenberg's sign - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wartenberg's_sign

    Wartenberg's sign is a neurological sign consisting of involuntary abduction of the fifth (little) finger, caused by unopposed action of the extensor digiti minimi. [1][2] This commonly results from weakness of some of the ulnar nerve innervated intrinsic hand muscles -in particular the palmar interosseous muscle to the little finger- caused by ...

    The partially obscured extensor carpi radialis brevis is shown in blue. In human anatomy, extensor carpi radialis brevis is a muscle in the forearm that acts to extend and abduct the wrist. It is shorter and thicker than its namesake extensor carpi radialis longus which can be found above the proximal end of the extensor carpi radialis brevis.

  7. Extensor tendon compartments of the wrist - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_tendon...

    Any movement of the thumb and wrist causes the patient pain, inflammation and swelling. The presence of anomalous or variant muscles in the fourth compartment may result in chronic dorsal wrist pain, a condition known as the fourth compartment syndrome. [4] Intersection syndrome can be caused by direct trauma to the second extensor compartment.

  8. Flexor carpi radialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_carpi_radialis_muscle

    The flexor carpi radialis is one of four muscles in the superficial layer of the anterior compartment of the forearm. This muscle originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus as part of the common flexor tendon. It runs just laterally of flexor digitorum superficialis and inserts on the anterior aspect of the base of the second ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dorsal_interossei_of_the_hand

    In human anatomy, the dorsal interossei (DI) are four muscles in the back of the hand that act to abduct (spread) the index, middle, and ring fingers away from the hand's midline (ray of middle finger) and assist in flexion at the metacarpophalangeal joints and extension at the interphalangeal joints of the index, middle and ring fingers.
