Bones
- Distal Radius
- Styloid process adds medial stability
- Distal Ulna
- Styloid process adds lateral stability
- Proximal Carpal Row
- Distal Carpal Row
- Joint Capsules
- Seven non-communicating compartments of the wrist
- Negative findings in one compartment do not rule out pathology in another
Tendons
- Flexor Tendons
- Majority traverse palmar surface via carpal tunnel
- Lie between carpal bones dorsally and flexor retinaculum ventrally
- Extensor Tendons
- Cross the wrist covered by fascia along the dorsal surface
- Insertions
- Major wrist flexors/extensors insert at base of metacarpals, not onto carpal bones
Nerves
- Median Nerve
- Runs through carpal tunnel
- Ulnar Nerve
- Follows ulnar artery
