Abstract

1. A method of finger dissection is described which provides a new approach to the anatomical study of structures in close relation to joints.

2. The volar part of the capsule of the finger joints is described, the attachment to the bones being particularly emphasised together with its form which is like that of a meniscus.

3. A gap between bone and tendon sheath is described.

4. Theoretical and clinical aspects of the local anatomy are discussed.
