Lunate bone Lunate bone The lunate bone (semilunar bone) is a carpal bone in the human hand. It is distinguished by its deep concavity and crescentic outline. It is situated in the center of the proximal row carpal bones, which lie between the ulna and radius and the hand. The lunate carpal bone is situated between the lateral scaphoid bone and medial triquetral bone. The lunate is a crescent-shaped carpal bone found within the hand. The lunate is found within the proximal row of carpal bones. Proximally, it abuts the radius. Laterally, it articulates with the scaphoid, medially with the triquetral, and
Posterior compartment of the forearm muscles because they both arise within the forearm and they both move the forearm. Extensor tendons pass through the extensor retinaculum at wrist joint in 6 synovial sheaths, also referred to compartments. The supinator and the anconeus are the two muscles in the posterior compartment of the forearm that do not pass through wrist extensor compartments. The muscles of the posterior compartment of the forearm are innervated by the radial nerve and its branches. The radial nerve arises from the posterior cord of the plexus. The somatomotor fibers of the radial nerve branch from the main radial nerve at the
