A metacarpal fracture or broken metacarpal is a fracture (break) of the tubular bones within the palm (metacarpals). They classically occur in the small finger or metacarpal bone in boxers or athletes of other sports or activities.
metacarpal, any of several tubular bones between the wrist (carpal) bones and each of the forelimb digits in land vertebrates, corresponding to the metatarsal bones of the foot.
A boxer's fracture is a break in the neck of the 5th metacarpal bone in the hand. It usually happens when you punch an object at a high speed. Symptoms of a boxer's fracture include pain and swelling of the hand, limited range of motion of the pinky finger, and misalignment of the finger.
First Metacarpal Joint/bone The first metacarpal bone is associated with the thumb. The joints between the carpals and the metacarpals are known as carpometacarpal joints. The joints between the metacarpals and the proximal phalanges are known a metacarpophalangeal joints.
The Fourth Metacarpal Bone (os metacarpale IV; metacarpal bone of the ring finger) is shorter and smaller than the third. The base is small and quadrilateral; its superior surface presents two facets, a large one medially for articulation with the hamate, and a small one laterally for the capitate.
S69.91XAS69. 91XA - Unspecified injury of right wrist, hand and finger(s) [initial encounter]. ICD-10-CM.
Besides the metacarpophalangeal joints, the metacarpal bones articulate by carpometacarpal joints as follows:the first with the trapezium;the second with the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and third metacarpal;the third with the capitate and second and fourth metacarpals;More items...
Second metacarpal bone The metacarpal bone 2 is the one with the largest base and the longest shaft. Its base shows several areas for the articulations with the carpal bones; A groove in the coronal plane via which it articulates with the trapezoid bone.
five bonesThe palm has five bones known as metacarpal bones, one to each of the 5 digits. These metacarpals have a head, a shaft, and a base. Human hands contain fourteen digital bones, also called phalanges, or phalanx bones: two in the thumb (the thumb has no middle phalanx) and three in each of the four fingers.
