The tendinous slips passing to the contracted fingers have been divided, and the origin of the palmar fascia has been cut across, but without permanent benefit.
Chronic thickening and contraction of the palmar aponeurosis occurs occasionally, and, in some cases, to such an extent as to disable the hand almost entirely.
The opening in the integuments and palmar aponeurosis is usually narrow, and the hemorrhage copious; it is generally arrested by pressure, not always well or efficiently applied.
The length of the middle finger, measured from the digito-palmar plica or fold, ought to equal the length of the palm.
An insufficient development of these palmar eminences represents a serious malformation, which entails functional disturbances.
Nevertheless, many idiots exhibit a similar longitudinal furrow, due to a peculiar development of the palmar aponeurosis.
The palmar surfaces of both hands and the anterior surfaces of the forearms were blackened from the tips of the fingers to a point midway between the wrists and the elbows, and these parts were exceedingly sensitive to the touch.
They had completely curled round the tips of his fingers and toes till they had thus come to extend along the palmar and plantar surfaces in a strange way.
The wound on the volar surface or the palmarside of his wrist was enlarged.
The volar surface or palmar surface had a wound disclosed transversely about a half centimeter in length and about 2 centimeters above the flexion crease to the wrist.
There is a second wound presumed to be the wound of exit which lay in the midline of the wrist on its palmar surface about 2 centimeters, something less than 1 inch above the wrist crease, the most distal wrist crease.
The so-called "compound palmar ganglion" is a tuberculous disease of the tendon sheaths, and is described with diseases of tendon sheaths.
They are met with chiefly on the palmar aspect of the fingers, and vary in size from a split pea to a cherry.
Ganglia are also met with on the dorsum of the metacarpus and on the palmar aspect of the wrist.
The dressings and bandage are then applied, with the limb in the attitude that will diminish the force of the stream through the main artery, for example, flexion at the elbow in hæmorrhage from the deep palmar arch.
If there is drop-wrist, the hand and forearm are placed on a palmar splint, with the hand dorsiflexed to nearly a right angle, and this position is maintained until voluntary dorsiflexion at the wrist returns to the normal.

When this vessel is tied, the collateral circulation will depend upon the anastomosis of the palmar arches, as in the case last mentioned.
When matter forms beneath the palmar fascia, it is liable, owing to the unyielding nature of this fibrous structure, to burrow upwards into the forearm, beneath the annular ligament D, Plates 17 and 18.
Its deep palmar branch is seen lying on the interosseous muscles, M M.
Deep palmar arch, formed by radial artery giving off e, the artery of the thumb.

Also, in these fourteen specimens the palmar tubercles are larger, and the dark anal patch more distinct, than in typical M.
All specimens from Arteaga have two palmar tubercles; the inner and outer metatarsal tubercles are subequal in size.
But the egg-patches are all on the palmar surface, showing that the bones were still in their normal relative positions.
Thus the dorsal surface of the arm and the palmar surface of the hand respectively were uppermost, which is an anatomical impossibility so long as the hand is attached to the arm.
Palmar Sur) to the southeasternmost locality for H.
Dixon and Webb (1966) imply that the outer palmar tubercle is rarely absent but is usually smaller than the first supernumerary tubercle of the fourth finger.
Supernumerary tubercles are present on the palmar surfaces of all species of the genus.
Palmar views of hands of six species of the eastern complex of Syrrhophus.
Palmar views of hands of two species of the western complex of Syrrhophus.
My study of the western species demonstrates that the outerpalmar tubercle is indeed usually present and smaller than the first supernumerary tubercle.
Syrrhophus rubrimaculatus is probably best treated as a Pacific derivative of the leprus group, even though the palmar tubercles do not agree.
Three large, well-developed palmar tubercles 2 Two large palmar tubercles; outer (third) palmartubercle reduced in size or absent 9 2.
Except for the reduction of the outerpalmar tubercle, rubrimaculatus could be a member of the leprus group.
The eastern complex in general has a well-developed outer palmartubercle (Fig.
Previous authors who treated Syrrhophus placed this species in the western complex, because it occurs on the Pacific versant and has a reduced outer palmar tubercle.
There was a slight hypesthesia of the palmar surface of the middle finger and of the index finger.
Yet there was a definite contracture of the palmar fascia which prevented full extension of the third and fourth fingers.
The contracture of the palmar fascia was still in evidence, but the power of movement in the hands and fingers was so satisfactory that he could be sent back to duty in three weeks.
Wasting of the thenar and hypothenar eminences, and filling up of the hollows above and below the anterior annular ligament, render the appearance on the palmaraspect characteristic.
In full palmar flexion of the wrist the displaced head of the os magnum forms a prominence on the dorsum opposite the base of the third metacarpal, which temporarily disappears when the hand is dorsiflexed.
This is an acquired deformity resulting from contraction of the palmar fascia and its digital prolongations (Fig.
The natural hollow on the palmar aspect of the radius is filled up by the projection of the proximal fragment.
Dissections show that the flexion of the finger is the result of a chronic interstitial overgrowth or fibrositis and subsequent contraction of the palmar fascia and of its prolongations on to the sides of the fingers.
Treated by resection of both joints, and the insertion, on the palmar aspect of each, of a flap from the abdominal wall.
Simultaneous separation of the epiphysis of both radius and ulna sometimes occurs, and, as a result of severe violence, may be compound, the lower ends of the diaphyses projecting through the skin on the palmar aspect above the wrist.
When impaction takes place, it is usually reciprocal, the dorsal edge of the proximal fragment piercing the distal fragment, and the palmar edge of the distal fragment piercing the proximal.
The skin on the palmar aspect opposite the first inter-phalangeal joint may give way when the finger is extended; should this occur, the resulting gap may be covered by a skin graft.
The shadow of the ball being very nearly the normal size, the ball lies on the palmar side of the third metacarpo-phalangeal joint.
The hand lay with the palmar surface next to the plate.
The shadow of the bones is not dense, but in deep contrast with the shadows of the ball and metal fragments, which are so clearly outlined with the ball of normal size that the ball is thus shown to lie on the palmar side of the hand.
The lines on the palmar surfaces of the finger-tips are often of a simple nature as in the anthropoids.
Also the lines in the palm and those on the palmar surfaces of the finger-tips show deviations from the normal type resembling characteristics of apes.
When the palmar surface leaves a distinctly greasy impression, this greasiness must have been acquired from outside or from transmitted exudation from the back or dorsal surfaces, or other parts of the body.
The lines on thepalmar surfaces of the finger-tips are often of a simple nature, as in the anthropoids.
A striking example is that on the palmar surface of the prehensile or grasping tail of the Spider Monkey (Ateles ater), which it uses in climbing almost like a hand.
A black line will be seen extending along the whole length of the palmar surface of the thumb, crossing the base of the annular ligament to a point a little above the wrist.
The neck of the instrument rests along the whole length of the palmar line on the thumb, as represented in Fig.
The line of support along the palmar surface of the thumb is full of anatomical interest.
Make the sign for HORSE, and then point to a black object or rub the back of the left hand with the palmar side of the fingers of the right.

The ulnar artery and a branch of the radial form the palmar arch, which gives off the branches to the fingers.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "palmar" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
