Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Variations of the extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon of the hand are not uncommon. Yet, this anatomic structure exhibits the least variations among the extensors of the upper extremity.
UNASSIGNED: This article highlights the presence of an accessory EPL tendon in the fourth dorsal compartment, which was presented as an incidental finding during an elective wrist arthrodesis in a woman in her 40s.
UNASSIGNED: Knowledge of this anatomic variation can guide surgical planning and mitigate iatrogenic injury by anticipating potential challenges.
摘要:
手部长伸肌(EPL)肌腱的变化并不少见。然而,这种解剖结构表现出上肢伸肌之间最小的变化。
本文重点介绍了第四背室中附件EPL肌腱的存在,这是在一名40多岁的女性的选择性腕关节固定术中偶然发现的。
了解这种解剖变异可以通过预测潜在的挑战来指导手术计划并减轻医源性损伤。
