Numerous ligaments attach to it, including ligaments from the pisiform, the transverse carpal ligament, and the tendon of Flexor carpi ulnaris.
12.
There's also a large pad ( plantar pad ) in the center of the paw and a small wrist pad ( pisiform pad ).
13.
Its insertion is into the pisiform bone and then via ligaments into the hamate bone-g pisohamate ligament-and 5th metacarpal bone-forming pisometacarpal ligament.
14.
Instead the medial attachment is to the most medial of the carpal bones, the triquetrum ( or triquetral bone ) and pisiformis ( or pisiform bone ).
15.
The palmar branch represents the continuation of the ulnar nerve as it crosses the flexor retinaculum of the hand on the lateral side of the pisiform bone, medial to and a little behind the ulnar artery.
16.
Partial or complete insertion into the fascia of the forearm, into the tendon of the flexor carpi ulnaris and pisiform bone, into the scaphoid, and into the muscles of the little finger have been observed.
17.
Merriamosaurs are characterized by features in their pectoral girdles and limb bones, including an extensive connection between the scapula and the coracoid bone, the absence of the first metacarpal and the absence of a pisiform bone.
18.
The two volar ligaments are strong fibrous bands; one, the pisohamate ligament, connects the pisiform to the hamate, the other, the pisometacarpal ligament, joins the pisiform to the base of the fifth metacarpal bone.
