Wrist


 

In human anatomy, the wrist is the flexible and narrower connection between the forearm and the hand.

Radial collateral ligament

('ligamentum collaterale carpi radiale; external lateral ligament') The radial collateral ligament extends from the tip of the styloid process of the radius to the radial side of the navicular, some of its fibers being prolonged to the greater multangular bone and the transverse carpal ligament. It is in relation with the radial artery, which separates the ligament from the tendons of the Abductor pollicis longus and Extensor pollicis brevis.
