Location of the accessory ossicles of the carpals. Occasionally accessory bones are found in the carpus, but of more than 20 such described bones, only four (the central, styloid, secondary trapezoid, and secondary pisiform bones) are considered to be proven accessory bones. Sometimes the scaphoid, triquetrum, and pisiform bones are divided ...
A collateral ligament flanks each MCP joint - one on either side. Each attaches proximally at the head of the metacarpal bone, and distally at the base of the phalynx. Each extends obliquely in a palmar direction from its proximal attachment to its distal attachment. [2]
The carpometacarpal joint connects the carpal bones to the metacarpus or metacarpal bones which are joined at the intermetacarpal articulations. In the fingers, finally, are the metacarpophalangeal joints (including the knuckles) between the metacarpal bones and the phalanges or finger bones which are interconnected by the interphalangeal joints
The carpus and tarsus of land vertebrates primitively had three rows of carpal or tarsal bones. Often, some of these have become lost or fused in evolution. Accessory bones amidst tarsals. Three proximal bones. Humans hold all three in their hands.

It is on the ulnar side of the hand, but does not directly articulate with the ulna.
