The ulnar nerve, D E, lies on the ulnar border of the artery, and both are in general to be found ranging along the radial side of the tendon of the flexor carpi ulnaris muscle, T, and the pisiform bone, G. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
Whenever circumstances may call for placing a ligature on the ulnar artery, as it lies between the superficial and deep flexor muscles, in the region of I L M, Plate 16, the course of the vessel may be indicated by a line drawn from a central point of the forearm, an inch or so below the level of the inner condyle -- viz., the point F, and carried to the pisiform bone, T. ❋ Joseph Maclise (N/A)
It is one of the four eminences on the front of the carpus to which the transverse carpal ligament of the wrist is attached; the others being the pisiform medially, the oblique ridge of the greater multangular and the tubercle of the navicular laterally. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The articular capsule is a thin membrane which connects the pisiform to the triangular; it is lined by synovial membrane. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Partial or complete insertion into the fascia of the forearm, into the tendon of the Flexor carpi ulnaris and pisiform bone, into the navicular, and into the muscles of the little finger have been observed. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The pisiform bone may be known by its small size, and by its presenting a single articular facet. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The fibers end in a tendon, which occupies the anterior part of the lower half of the muscle and is inserted into the pisiform bone, and is prolonged from this to the hamate and fifth metacarpal bones by the pisohamate and pisometacarpal ligaments; it is also attached by a few fibers to the transverse carpal ligament. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The pisiform articulates with one bone, the triangular. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The ligaments connecting the pisiform bone are the articular capsule and the two volar ligaments. ❋ Unknown (1918)
On the front of the wrist are two subcutaneous eminences, one, on the radial side, the larger and flatter, produced by the tuberosity of the navicular and the ridge on the greater multangular; the other, on the ulnar side, by the pisiform. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The ulnar collateral ligament is a rounded cord, attached above to the end of the styloid process of the ulna, and dividing below into two fasciculi, one of which is attached to the medial side of the triangular bone, the other to the pisiform and transverse carpal ligament. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The triangular bone may be distinguished by its pyramidal shape, and by an oval isolated facet for articulation with the pisiform bone. ❋ Unknown (1918)
This slip may be replaced by a muscular fasciculus arising from or near the pisiform. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The volar surface presents, on its medial part, an oval facet, for articulation with the pisiform; its lateral part is rough for ligamentous attachment. ❋ Unknown (1918)
There is a separate synovial membrane between the pisiform and triangular. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The pisiform is about 1 cm. distal to the lower end of the ulna and just distal to the level of the styloid process of the radius; it is crossed by the uppermost crease which separates the front of the forearm from the palm of the hand. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Each bone (excepting the pisiform) presents six surfaces. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The two volar ligaments are strong fibrous bands; one, the pisohamate ligament, connects the pisiform to the hamate, the other, the pisometacarpal ligament, joins the pisiform to the base of the fifth metacarpal bone (Fig. 334). ❋ Unknown (1918)
The fifth runs between the adjacent margins of the triangular and pisiform bones. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The triangular articulates with three bones: the lunate laterally, the pisiform in front, the hamate distally; and with the triangular articular disk which separates it from the lower end of the ulna. ❋ Unknown (1918)
