2023年4月15日 · In this article, we shall look at the anatomy of the metacarpophalangeal joint – its articulating surfaces, ligaments and clinical correlations. The articulating surfaces of the metacarpophalangeal joints of the hand. Explore, cut, dissect, annotate and manipulate our 3D models to visualise anatomy in a dynamic, interactive way.

2023年10月30日 · Overview of the bones of the hand and wrist. The metacarpophalangeal joints (MCP) are a collection of condyloid joints that connect the metacarpus, or palm of the hand, to the fingers. There are five separate metacarpophalangeal joints that connect each metacarpal bone to the corresponding proximal phalanx of each finger.

The metacarpophalangeal joints (MCP) are situated between the metacarpal bones and the proximal phalanges of the fingers. [1] . These joints are of the condyloid kind, formed by the reception of the rounded heads of the metacarpal bones into shallow cavities on the proximal ends of the proximal phalanges. [1] .

The metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) is a diarthrodial joint that is critical for functional hand motion and is based on an articulation of the head of the metacarpal and the proximal phalanx. The joint allows for extension, flexion, abduction, adduction, and …

2025年2月13日 · Metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints are diarthrodial joints in which the concave proximal aspect of each phalange articulates with the massive convex heads of the distal aspect of the metacarpals. Each metacarpal head and proximal phalange has a hyaline cartilage articulating surface.

2023年8月14日 · There are five separate MCP joints in each hand and these joints serve as transitions between the palm and the fingers. In layman's terms, the MCP joints are known as the “knuckles,” and the metacarpal heads are especially prominent dorsally when making a fist.

2024年12月1日 · This review provides a detailed analysis of the anatomy, mechanisms, and management of ligamentous and capsular injuries in metacarpophalangeal joints (MCPJs). The MCPJ is a condyloid joint with unique anatomical features, including a sagittal cam effect that enhances stability in flexion.

Results: Prevalence findings: Two in the 1st Metacarpophalangeal joint (MCPJ) in 99.2% of cases, with one case of a single bone. One in the 2nd MCPJ in 43.3% of cases. One in the 5th MCPJ in...

The metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint is formed by the articulation of the metacarpal and proximal phalanx of all 5 digits of both hands.

2024年7月25日 · This review provides a detailed analysis of the anatomy, mechanisms, and management of ligamentous and capsular injuries in metacarpophalangeal joints (MCPJs). The MCPJ is a condyloid joint with unique anatomical features, including a sagittal cam effect that enhances stability in flexion. Ligaments …
