    This document summarizes the bones of the forearm, wrist, and hand. It describes the radius and ulna bones of the forearm, noting features like the radial tuberosity. It then discusses the carpal bones that make up the wrist, including the scaphoid, lunate, and pisiform bones. Finally, it briefly outlines the five metacarpal bones and phalanges of the hand.

    BONES OF FOREARM
    RADIUS
    The radius is the lateral bone of the forearm, and is homologous with the tibia of the
    lower limb. It has an upper end, a lower end and a shaft.

    Side Determination
     Upper end is having disc shaped head while lower end is expanded with a styloid
    process.
    At the lower end, the anterior surface is in the form of thick prominent ridge. while
    the posterior surface presents four grooves for the extensor tendons.
     The sharpest border of the shaft is the medial border.

    Close to neck it presents a radial tuberosity.


    Lower end presents a tubercle on the posterior surface called as dorsal tubercle of
    Lister.
    ATTACHMENTS
    ULNA

    The ulna is the medial bone of the forearm, and is homologous with
    the fibula of the lower limb. It has upper end, shaft and a lower end.

    Side Determinolion
     The upper end is hook-like, with its concavity directed forwards.
    The lateral border of the shaft is sharp and crest-like.

     Pointed styloid process lies posteromedial to the rounded head of


    ulna at its lower end.
    CARPELS BONES
    The carpus is (Greek Karpos , wrist) made up of 8 carpal bones, which are arranged in two rows
    (Fig.2.34).
    The proximal row contains (from lateral to medial side):
    The scaphoid (Greek boat,wrist),

    The lunate (Latin moon shaped),


    The triquetral (Latin three cornered), and
    The pisiform (Greekpen)

    The distal row contains in the same order:


    iThe trapezlrn (Greekfour sided geometric figure),
    iThe trapezoid (Greek baby's shoe),

     The capitate (Latin hend), and


    .The hamate (Latinhook).
    M E TA C A R PA L B O N E S A N D P H A L A N G E S

    The metacarpal bones are 5 miniature long bones, which are numbered

    Each bone has a head placed distally, a shaft and a base at the proximal end.
     The head is round. It has an articular surface which extends more antero-posteriorly
    than laterally. It extends more on the palmar surface than on the dorsal surface.
    The heads of the metacarpal bones form the knuckles.
    The shaft is concave on the palmar surface. Its dorsal surface bears a flat triangular
    area in its
    distal part.
    The base is irregularly expanded.om lateral to the medial side
