Name
- Interosseous Intercarpal Ligaments
- Interosseous Carpal Ligaments
- Carpal Interosseous Ligaments
- Intracarpal Ligaments
General
- Serve to stabilize the carpal bones of the midcarpal joint
Proximal Row
- Span the adjacent sides of the relevant carpal bones
- Separate the joint spaces of the midcarpal joint, radiocarpal joints
- Ligaments
Distal Row
- Ligaments connect the trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and hamate
- They have volar, dorsal and interosseous components[6]
- Ligaments
