[Proximal interphalangeal articulation in man].

J M Landsmeer

    Bulletin De L'Association Des Anatomistes
    |December 1, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study details the three bilateral components anchoring the proximal interphalangeal joint capsule, focusing on the volar plate and tendon sheath attachments. Understanding these structures is crucial for joint stability and surgical considerations.

    Area of Science:

    • Anatomy
    • Surgical Anatomy

    Context:

    • The proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint is critical for hand function.
    • Detailed understanding of PIP joint capsule attachments is essential for orthopedic and hand surgery.

    Purpose:

    • To elucidate the specific microanatomical structures responsible for the proximal anchorage of the PIP joint capsule.
    • To describe the proximal attachments of the volar plate and tendon sheath.

    Summary:

    • Microdissection revealed three bilateral components securing the PIP joint capsule.
    • These include laterobasal and retrochlear fibers, an internal cord inserting along the osteofibrous sheath of phalanx I, and the cruciform ligament of the sheath.

    Impact:

    • Provides detailed anatomical knowledge for surgical planning and reconstruction of the PIP joint.
