- Distal Phalanx: Definition, Location, Anatomy, Diagram
The primary purpose of the distal phalanges is to support and maintain the stability of the fingertips, as it is a highly sensitive area with multiple nerve endings for translating the sense of touch into nerve impulses to be carried to the brain
- Phalanx bone - Wikipedia
The distal phalanges, as compared with the distal phalanges of the finger, are smaller and are flattened from above downward; each presents a broad base for articulation with the corresponding bone of the second row, and an expanded distal extremity for the support of the nail and end of the toe
- Distal phalanx fractures - UpToDate
An understanding of basic finger anatomy and common injury patterns provides the basis for diagnosing and treating these injuries This topic review will discuss fractures of the distal phalanx Finger anatomy and other common finger injuries are reviewed elsewhere
- Phalanx Fractures - Hand - Orthobullets
Phalanx Fractures are common hand injuries that involve the proximal, middle or distal phalanx Diagnosis can be confirmed with orthogonal radiographs of the involve digit Treatment involves immobilization or surgical fixation depending on location, severity and alignment of injury
- Distal phalanx, distal and shaft, transverse
The distal phalanx is divided into three anatomical zones: most proximally the epiphyseal region (base), followed by the diaphysis (“waist”), and finally the ungual tuberosity (“tuft”)
- Distal Phalanx Anatomy | Anatomic Structures at Risk
The distal phalanges are very small terminal bones of the fingers and plays a crucial role in fine motor skills The base of the distal phalanx, which is part of the DIP joint is covered with articular cartilage
