A distal interphalangeal joint is the articulation of the medial and distal phalanges. In contrast, a proximal interphalangeal joint is the articulation of the proximal and medial phalanges.
The distal interphalangeal joints are the most distal joints of the lower extremities.
The proximal and distal phalanges only meet in the first digits (the thumbs and the big tues). This joint is the first interphalangeal joint.
From the nail down the distal phalances, distal interphalangeal joint, the middle phalanges and then the proximal interphalangeal joints. The base of the finger is comprised of the proximal phalanges and the knuckles.
Finger joints are condyloid joints.It is the Hinge Jointthey are called proximal interphilangeal jointsThe joint of the finger can be called the knuckle or saddle joint for the thumb.Hope that helped.hinge jointsSynovial joints .
The CPT code for a finger interphalangeal joint arthroplasty with a hemihamate graft is 26416.
Proximal and distal interphalangeal joints.
The distal interphalangeal joints are the most distal joints of the lower extremities.

From the nail down the distal phalances, distal interphalangeal joint, the middle phalanges and then the proximal interphalangeal joints. The base of the finger is comprised of the proximal phalanges and the knuckles.
There would be 2 muscles involved in pulling the trigger: 1 - Flexor digitorum superficialis - flexes the proximal interphalangeal joint 2 - Flexor digitorum profundus - flexes the distal interphalangeal joint
Joint between the phalanges (interphalangeal joint) is hinge joint.
The only muscle capable of flexing the distal interphalangeal joints is the flexor digitorum profundus. This muscle originates from the ulna and interosseous membrane in the forearm and inserts on the distal phalanges of the fingers. It is responsible for flexing the distal interphalangeal joints while the flexor digitorum superficialis flexes the proximal interphalangeal joints.
The interphalangeal joints in the fingers are synovial hinge joints. The thumb metacarpal is a saddle joint. The metacarpo-phalangeal joints are synovial ellipsoid joints.
The flexor digitorum profundus
Yes. True
