*✨ AYURVED CREATION ✨* *#learn. Connect. Grow. Succeed* 🔥 *No: 06 – CARPUS* 🔥 ⭐ *CARPUS* made of 8 carpal bones. arranged in two rows. *Proximal row:* i. *Scaphoid* ⭐ – Boat-shaped and has a tubercle on its lateral side. ii. *Lunate* ⭐ – Half-moon-shaped or crescentic. iii. *Triquetral* ⭐ – Pyramidal and has an isolated oval facet on the distal part of the palmar surface. iv. *Pisiform* ⭐ – Pea-shaped and has only one oval facet on the proximal part of its dorsal surface. *Distal row:* i. *Trapezium* ⭐ – Quadrangular and has a crest and a groove anteriorly. It has a Sellar (concavo-convex) articular surface distally. ii. *Trapezoid* ⭐ – Resembles the shoe of a baby. iii. *Capitate* ⭐ – The largest carpal bone, with a rounded head. iv. *Hamate* ⭐ – Wedge-shaped with a hook near its base. ⭐ *Proximal row is convex proximally, and concave distally.* ⭐ *Distal row is convex proximally and flat distally* Each bone has *6 surfaces*: • *Palmar and dorsal surfaces* are non-articular, except for the triquetral and pisiform. • *Lateral surfaces* of the two lateral bones (scaphoid and trapezium) are non-articular. • *Medial surfaces* of the three medial bones (triquetral, pisiform, and hamate) are non-articular. • *Dorsal non-articular surface* is always larger than the palmar non-articular surface, except for the lunate, in which the palmar surface is larger than the dorsal. 1️⃣ *Scaphoid* ⭐ – Tubercle directed laterally, forward, and downwards. 2️⃣ *Lunate* ⭐ – Small semilunar articular surface for the scaphoid is on the lateral side and the quadrilateral articular surface for the triquetral is on the medial side. 3️⃣ *Triquetral* ⭐ – Oval facet for the pisiform lies on the distal part of the palmar surface. 4️⃣ *Pisiform* ⭐ – Oval facet for the triquetral lies on the proximal part of the dorsal surface and lateral surface is grooved by the ulnar nerve. 5️⃣ *Trapezium* ⭐ – Palmar surface has a vertical groove for the tendon of the flexor carpi radialis and is limited laterally by the crest of the trapezium. 6️⃣ *Trapezoid* ⭐ – Distal articular surface is larger than the proximal. 7️⃣ *Capitate* ⭐ – Dorsomedial angle is the distal-most projection from the body of the capitate and has a small facet for the 4th metacarpal bone. 8️⃣ *Hamate* ⭐ – Hook projects from the distal part of the palmar surface and is directed laterally. *#ug* *#bams* *#ncism* *#first_professional* *#ayurved_creation* *AYURVED CREATION ❤️✨* FOLLOW जरूर से करे सबसे पहले आयुष से जुड़ी जानकारी पाने के लिए |  🔗WhatsApp channel link :https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Vab5OQY3gvWZ98H89z43 🔗 Telegram Channel link :-https://t.me/cgbamsknowledge BAMS IInd PROF - https://t.me/bamscgfoundation2 🔗 Follow on Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/cgbamsknowledge/profilecard/?igsh=c3djbDRndmkxcmdn *Share with your batchmates 🤝*
