| palmar surface | The palm or grasping side of the hand. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| palmar surface of fingers | The flat of the fingers; the flexor or anterior surface of the fingers. Synonym: facies digitalis ventralis, facies digitalis palmaris, ventral surface of digit. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palmar ulnocarpal ligament | <anatomy> The fibrous band that passes from the ulnar styloid process to the carpal bones. Synonym: ligamentum ulnocarpale palmare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central palmar space | The more medial of the central palmar spaces, bounded medially by the hypothenar compartment; related distally to the synovial tendon sheaths of digits 3 and 4 and proximally to the common flexor sheath. Synonym: medial midpalmar space, middle palmar space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| perforating branches of palmar metacarpal arteries | The perforating branches of the palmar metacarpal arteries, three small arteries that pass dorsally through the second, third, and fourth interosseous spaces of the hand from the palmar metacarpal arteries. Synonym: ramus perforantes arteriarum metacarpalium palmarium, perforating arteries of hand. (05 Mar 2000) |
| middle palmar space | The more medial of the central palmar spaces, bounded medially by the hypothenar compartment; related distally to the synovial tendon sheaths of digits 3 and 4 and proximally to the common flexor sheath. Synonym: medial midpalmar space, middle palmar space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| short palmar muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, ulnar side of central portion of the palmar aponeurosis; insertion, skin of ulnar side of hand; action, wrinkles skin on medial side of palm; nerve supply, ulnar. Synonym: musculus palmaris brevis, short palmar muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar (arterial) arch | The arterial arch in the hand located superficial to the long flexor tendons approximately at the level of a line extrapolated across the palm from the distal side of the outstretched thumb. It is formed principally by the termination of the superficial ulnar artery and is usually completed by a communication with the superficial palmar branch of the radial artery. The arch gives rise to the common palmar digital arteries. Synonym: arcus palmaris superficialis, arcus volaris superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar artery | <anatomy, artery> The superficial palmar branch of the radial artery which supplies the thenar muscles then enters the palm to communicate with the superficial palmar arch from the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis, superficial palmar artery, superficial volar artery, superficialis volae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar branch of radial artery | <anatomy, artery> The superficial palmar branch of the radial artery which supplies the thenar muscles then enters the palm to communicate with the superficial palmar arch from the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis, superficial palmar artery, superficial volar artery, superficialis volae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar venous arch | The venous arch accompanying the superficial palmar arterial arch it consists usually of paired venae comitantes and is drained by the superficial ulnar and radial veins. Synonym: arcus venosus palmaris superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep palmar (arterial) arch | The arterial arch located deep to the long flexor tendons in the hand. It is formed by the terminal part of the radial artery in conjunction with the deep palmar branch of the ulnar artery. The arch gives rise to palmar metacarpal and princeps pollicis arteries. Synonym: arcus palmaris profundus, arcus volaris profundus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep palmar branch of ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of the ulnar artery which supplies the hypothenar muscles then passes deep into the palm to the flexor tendons and anastomoses with the deep palmar arch from the radial artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris profundus arteriae ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep palmar venous arch | The venous arch that accompanies the deep palmar arterial arch it usually consists of paired venae comitantes. Synonym: arcus venosus palmaris profundus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral central palmar space | The more lateral (radial) of the central palmar spaces, bounded laterally by the thenar compartment; related distally to the synovial tendon sheath of the index finger and proximally to the common flexor sheath. Synonym: lateral midpalmar space. (05 Mar 2000) |
