Investigating the minimum distance between the finger flexor tendons and distal radius during wrist and finger positions in healthy people

ConclusionsIt is necessary to measure the distance between the FPL and distal radius in maximal wrist dorsiflexion with full flexion of the isolated thumb, as the shortest distance was observed with flexion of the isolated thumb. On the contrary, we recommend measuring the distance between the FDP2 and distal radius in 30 ° wrist dorsiflexion with flexion of all fingers.
