So, from just below the elbow he stripped the bone clean to the articulation of the wrist-joint, where his teeth met and my good right hand became his for an appetizer. ❋ Unknown (2010)
The strokes of the hammer are directed mainly by the wrist-joint, because this leads to a good accuracy of aim. ❋ Frank Wenghfer (1990)
Its upper surface, smooth and concave, articulates with the head of the ulna, forming an arthrodial joint; its under surface, also concave and smooth, forms part of the wrist-joint and articulates with the triangular bone and medial part of the lunate. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The position of the wrist-joint can be indicated by drawing a curved line, with its convexity upward, between the styloid processes of the radius and ulna; the summit of the convexity is about 1 cm. above the center of a straight line joining the two processes. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Its upper extremity, of great thickness and strength, forms a large part of the elbow-joint; the bone diminishes in size from above downward, its lower extremity being very small, and excluded from the wrist-joint by the interposition of an articular disk. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The line of attachment of the articular capsule of the wrist-joint is in blue. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The lateral surface is prolonged obliquely downward into a strong, conical projection, the styloid process, which gives attachment by its base to the tendon of the Brachioradialis, and by its apex to the radial collateral ligament of the wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The wrist-joint is an example of this form of articulation. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The wrist-joint is covered in front by the Flexor, and behind by the Extensor tendons. ❋ Unknown (1918)
These two articular surfaces are separated by a prominent ridge, to which the base of the triangular articular disk is attached; this disk separates the wrist-joint from the distal radioulnar articulation. ❋ Unknown (1918)
It accompanies the volar interosseous artery along the front of the interosseous membrane, in the interval between the Flexor pollicis longus and Flexor digitorum profundus, supplying the whole of the former and the radial half of the latter, and ending below in the Pronator quadratus and wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The latter bone is excluded from the wrist-joint by the articular disk. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The styloid process projects from the medial and back part of the bone; it descends a little lower than the head, and its rounded end affords attachment to the ulnar collateral ligament of the wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Its margins are united to the ligaments of the wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
Its upper end is small, and forms only a small part of the elbow-joint; but its lower end is large, and forms the chief part of the wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
The head presents an articular surface, part of which, of an oval or semilunar form, is directed downward, and articulates with the upper surface of the triangular articular disk which separates it from the wrist-joint; the remaining portion, directed lateralward, is narrow, convex, and received into the ulnar notch of the radius. ❋ Unknown (1918)
At the wrist-joint it is placed in front of the radial artery, and some filaments, piercing the deep fascia, accompany that vessel to the dorsal surface of the carpus. ❋ Unknown (1918)
It also sends articular filaments to the wrist-joint. ❋ Unknown (1918)
