This is a list of human anatomy mnemonics, categorized and alphabetized.For mnemonics in other medical specialties, see this list of medical mnemonics.Mnemonics serve as a systematic method for remembrance of functionally or systemically related items within regions of larger fields of study, such as those found in the study of specific areas of human anatomy, such as the bones in the hand ...
Origin: Hook of hamate and flexor retinaculum: Insertion: Medial border of 5th metacarpal (in hand, 3rd digit is orientation of mid-line) Artery: Ulnar artery: Nerve: Deep branch of ulnar nerve (C8 and T1) Actions: Draws 5th metacarpal anteriorly and rotates it, bringing little finger (5th digit) into opposition with thumb: Identifiers; Latin
The intrinsic muscles of the thumb can be divided into two groups; the thenar eminence and other muscles. The thenar eminence refers to the group of muscles on the palm at the base of the thumb. The three muscles composing the thenar eminence are the abductor pollicis brevis, flexor pollicis brevis and opponens pollicis. [5]
Origin: Dorsal: metacarpal bones 1 to 5. Palmar: metacarpal bones of digits 2, 4, 5: Insertion: Dorsal: bases of proximal phalanges and extensor expansions of digits 2 to 4. Palmar: base of proximal phalanx and extensor expansion of the same digit from which it originated. Nerve: deep branch of the ulnar nerve: Actions: Dorsal: Abduct digits ...
Multiple types of the connection between the flexor pollicis longus and the flexor digitorum profundus were described: [9] A tendinous connection between the flexor digitorum profundus of the index to the flexor pollicis longus; A muscle with a bifurcated (split into two) tendon for the thumb and index finger
The proper palmar digital nerves of the ulnar nerve are nerves of the hand.. The superficial branch of the ulnar nerve divides into a proper palmar digital nerve, which supplies the medial side of the fifth digit and a common palmar digital nerve which divides into two proper palmar digital nerves that supply the adjacent sides of the fourth and fifth digits.
In mathematics, the nine lemma (or 3×3 lemma) is a statement about commutative diagrams and exact sequences valid in the category of groups and any abelian category.It states: if the diagram to the right is a commutative diagram and all columns as well as the two bottom rows are exact, then the top row is exact as well.
The ulnar nerve can suffer injury anywhere between its proximal origin of the brachial plexus all the way to its distal branches in the hand. It is the most commonly injured nerve around the elbow. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Although it can be damaged under various circumstances, it is commonly injured by local trauma or physical impingement ("pinched nerve").
