    Pain in forearm on resistance to isolated flexion of the PIP joint of long and ring fingers; In C5 tetraplegia or radial nerve palsy patients, pronator teres tendon can be rerouted, so called tendon transfer, to extensor carpi radialis brevis tendon to restore wrist extension. [3]

  3. De Quervain syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Quervain_syndrome

    De Quervain tendinopathy affects the tendons of these muscles as they pass from the forearm into the hand via a fibro-osseous tunnel (the first dorsal compartment). Evaluation of histopathological specimens shows a thickening and myxoid degeneration consistent with a chronic degenerative process, as opposed to inflammation or injury. [ 17 ]

    Medial injury of the flexor tendon is estimated to occur in 0.4% of the population. [1] It occurs most often in people ages 45 to 64, is more common in women than in men, and with 75% of cases in the dominant arm. [1] Risk factors for developing golfer's elbow include improper technique or lack of strength, endurance, or flexibility. [1]

  5. Palmaris longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmaris_longus_muscle

    The tendons most commonly replaced or supplemented by the palmaris longus tendon when ruptured are the long flexors of the fingers and the flexor pollicis longus tendon. [10] The palmaris longus muscle itself is a weak flexor, and provides no substantial flexing force that would inhibit movement in the wrist if its tendon were cut and moved ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tendinopathy

    Tendinopathy is a type of tendon disorder that results in pain, swelling, and impaired function. [2] The pain is typically worse with movement. [2] It most commonly occurs around the shoulder (rotator cuff tendinitis, biceps tendinitis), elbow (tennis elbow, golfer's elbow), wrist, hip, knee (jumper's knee, popliteus tendinopathy), or ankle (Achilles tendinitis).

  7. Common flexor tendon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_flexor_tendon

    The common flexor tendon is a tendon that attaches to the medial epicondyle of the humerus (lower part of the bone of the upper arm that is near the elbow joint). It serves as the upper attachment point for the superficial muscles of the front of the forearm: Flexor carpi ulnaris [1] Palmaris longus; Flexor carpi radialis; Pronator teres

  8. Posterior compartment of the forearm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_compartment_of...

    De Quervain's syndrome is a medical condition when the synovial sheath surrounding tendons in the first extensor tendon compartment becomes inflamed, so called tenosynovitis. [12] The tendons of the abductor pollicis longus and the extensor pollicis brevis run narrower due to the thickening of the synovial sheath, which causes pain when ...

  9. Anterior compartment of the forearm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_compartment_of...

    The superficial muscles have their origin on the common flexor tendon. [2] The ulnar nerve and artery are also contained within this compartment. [2] The flexor digitorum superficialis lies in between the other four muscles of the superficial group and the three muscles of the deep group. This is why it is also classified as the intermediate ...
