Ligaments Metacarpophalangeal Joints 3D

  • Capsular Ligament:

    • * This is thick in front and thin behind.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            .                                                                                
  • Palmar Ligament:

    • * This is a strong fibrocartilaginous plate, which replaces the anterior part of the capsule.
    • * More firmly attached to the phalanx than to the metacarpal.

 

  • Collateral Ligaments:

    • * These are oblique bands placed at the sides of the joint.
    • * Each runs downwards and forwards from the head of the metacarpal bone to the base of the phalanx.
    • * These are taut in flexion and relaxed in extension.
