|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 손목에는 아홉 개의 힘줄과 한 개의 신경이 통과하는 굴이 있는데 이곳을 손목굴이라 하고, 이곳을 지나는 신경이 눌리면 새깨손가락을 제외한 네 손가락이 아프고 저린 증상이다. 이것을 손목굴증후군이라 한다. 검사 방법으로는 근육 검사와 신경전달검사가 있다. 심할 때는 아침이나 저녁에 아파서 잠을 깨고 손목뿐만 아니라 어깨까지 아프다. 손목을 굽히고 있으면 통증이 심하다. 손목을 반복적으로 사용하는 운전자, 가정주부, 악기 연주자, 공장라인의 근로자, 컴퓨터 사용자, 목수가 해당된다. 손바닥뼈가 깨지거나 넘어지면서 손바닥으로 짚었을 때도 발생하며 드물게 진동하는 공구를 사용해도 나타나기도 한다. 임산부, 통풍, 류마티스 관절염, 갑상샘 기능 저하증, 당뇨병 등이 있을 때 이런 증상이 올 수 있다. 여자에게 더 많고 주로 자주 쓰는 손목이 해당된다. 심할 때는 손목에 땅콩만한 크기로 부어오른다. 누르면 안으로 쑥 들어가기도 하고 다시 움직이면 튀어나온다. 손목뼈 여덟 개 중에 반달뼈라 불리는 작은뼈의 인대가 이완되어 생긴다. 통증을 감소하는 치료로 부목, 얼음찜질, 이뇨제, 항생제를 사용하기도 하며 통증이 계속되면 코르티코스테로이드 호르몬을 손목부에 주사하여 통증을 줄인다. 부작용으로는 재발률이 높다. |

| carpal groove | The concavity on the anterior surface of the arch formed by the carpal bones. Synonym: sulcus carpi, carpal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |

| anterior carpal region | The anterior part of the wrist. Synonym: regio carpalis anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| palmar carpal branch of radial artery | <anatomy, artery> A small branch of the radial artery that passes medially across the wrist to supply the carpal joints; it anastomoses with the anterior carpal branch of the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus carpalis palmaris arteriae radialis, ramus carpeus palmaris arteriae radialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palmar carpal branch of ulnar artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the ulnar artery that supplies the carpal joints and communicates with the anterior carpal branch of the radial artery. Synonym: ramus carpalis palmaris arteriae ulnaris, ramus carpeus palmaris arteriae ulnaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palmar carpal ligament | Thickening of distal antebrachial fascia just proximal to radiocarpal (wrist) joint. Continuous with extensor retinaculum at margins of forearm. This structure is distinct from the transverse carpal ligament, commonly called "the flexor retinaculum," which forms the roof of the carpal tunnel. Synonym: flexor retinaculum of forearm, palmar carpal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal | Relating to the carpus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal arches | Two anastomotic arterial twigs running transversely across the wrist: the palmar or anterior lies in front of the carpus, being formed by palmar carpal branches of the radial and ulnar arteries; the dorsal or posterior lies on the dorsal surface of the carpus, being formed by the dorsal carpal branches of the radial and ulnar arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal artery | <anatomy, artery> Arteries related to and supplying the wrist joint. See: dorsal carpal branch of radial artery, dorsal carpal branch of ulnar artery, palmar carpal branch of radial artery, palmar carpal branch of ulnar artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal articular surface of radius | The biconcave distal surface of the radius for articulation with the scaphoid bone laterally and the lunate medially. Synonym: facies articularis carpi radii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal articulation | The synovial joint between the distal end of the radius and its articular disk and the proximal row of carpal bones with the exception of the pisiform bone. Synonym: articulatio radiocarpea, carpal articulation, carpal joints, radiocarpal articulation, radiocarpal joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal bones | Eight bones arranged in two rows that articulate proximally with the radius and indirectly with the ulna, and distally with the five metacarpal bones; in domestic mammals, the bones of the proximal row are called radial, intermediate, ulnar, and accessory, while those of the distal row are termed first, second, third, and fourth carpal bones. Synonym: carpus, ossa carpi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal canal | The passageway deep to the transverse carpal ligament between tubercles of the scaphoid and trapezoid bones on the radial side and the pisiform and hook of the hamate on the ulnar side, through which the median nerve and the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb pass; compression of the median nerve may occur here (carpal tunnel syndrome). Synonym: canalis carpi, carpal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal joints | The synovial joints between the carpal bones. Synonym: articulationes intercarpeae, carpal joints. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal tunnel | The passageway deep to the transverse carpal ligament between tubercles of the scaphoid and trapezoid bones on the radial side and the pisiform and hook of the hamate on the ulnar side, through which the median nerve and the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb pass; compression of the median nerve may occur here (carpal tunnel syndrome). Synonym: canalis carpi, carpal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| carpal tunnel release | <orthopaedics, procedure> An orthopaedic surgical procedure which relieves the pressure exerted on the median nerve within the carpal tunnel in the wrist. This surgery may be performed conventionally via a small incision or using a fibreoptic scope (endoscopic carpal tunnel repair). (08 Jan 1998) |
| carpal tunnel syndrome | <syndrome> A condition where there is a disturbance of median nerve function in the wrist as the nerve passes through the carpal tunnel. A buildup of scar tissue (inside the carpal tunnel) can lead to this surgically correctable problem. Often treated with splinting and anti-inflammatory agents. (27 Sep 1997) |
