  2. Extensor carpi radialis longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_carpi_radialis...

    The extensor carpi radialis longus is a wrist extensor that is innervated by the radial nerve, [2][3] from spinal roots C6 and C7. [4] All other major extensor muscles in the superficial layer of the posterior compartment (the extensor digitorum, extensor carpi radialis brevis, extensor carpi ulnaris, and extensor digiti minimi) are innervated ...

  3. Tennis elbow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tennis_elbow

    Tennis elbow, also known as lateral epicondylitis or enthesopathy of the extensor carpi radialis origin, is an enthesopathy (attachment point disease) of the origin of the extensor carpi radialis brevis on the lateral epicondyle. The outer part of the elbow becomes painful and tender. [ 2 ][ 1 ] The pain may also extend into the back of the ...

  4. Common extensor tendon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_extensor_tendon

    The common extensor tendon serves as the upper attachment (in part) for the superficial muscles that are located on the posterior aspect of the forearm: The tendon of extensor carpi radialis brevis is usually the most major tendon to which the other tendons merge. [2]

  5. Extensor tendon compartments of the wrist - Wikipedia

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

    The first compartment is the site where entrapment tendinitis, better known as De Quervain's disease, occurs. Repetitive trauma is believed to cause thickening of the tendons, which lead to movement restriction of the tendons through the compartment. Any movement of the thumb and wrist causes the patient pain, inflammation and swelling.

  6. De Quervain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Quervain_syndrome

    De Quervain syndrome involves noninflammatory thickening of the tendons and the synovial sheaths that the tendons run through. The two tendons concerned are those of the extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus muscles. These two muscles run side by side and function to bring the thumb away from the hand (radial abduction).

  7. Extensor pollicis longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_pollicis_longus...

    Extensor pollicis longus muscle is labeled in purple. In human anatomy, the extensor pollicis longus muscle (EPL) is a skeletal muscle located dorsally on the forearm. It is much larger than the extensor pollicis brevis, the origin of which it partly covers and acts to stretch the thumb together with this muscle.

  8. Extrinsic extensor muscles of the hand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extrinsic_extensor_muscles...

    Superficial. Deep. The extrinsic extensor muscles of the hand are located in the back of the forearm and have long tendons connecting them to bones in the hand, where they exert their action. Extrinsic denotes their location outside the hand. Extensor denotes their action which is to extend, or open flat, joints in the hand.

  9. Abductor pollicis longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abductor_pollicis_longus...

    An accessory abductor pollicis longus (AAPL) tendon is present in more than 80% of people, and a separate muscle belly is present in 20% of people. In one study, the accessory tendon was inserted into the trapezium (41%); proximally on the abductor pollicis brevis (22%) and opponens pollicis brevis (5%); had a double insertion on the trapezium and thenar muscles (15%); or the base of the first ...
