What range of movement does ellipsoid joint do?
An ellipsoid joint, also known as a condyloid joint, allows for a range of movement including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and circumduction. However, it does not permit rotation. This type of joint can be found in areas such as the wrist, where the radius articulates with the carpal bones, allowing for a versatile range of motion while maintaining stability.

What is Radial wrist deviation?

Additionally, the ligaments surrounding the wrist joint provide stability and support during the gliding motion.
Example of a ellipsoid joint?
An example of an ellipsoid joint is the wrist joint, which allows for a wide range of movement in multiple planes. This joint consists of the distal end of the radius bone articulating with the scaphoid and lunate bones of the wrist. The ellipsoid joint allows for flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, as well as circumduction movements.

The wrist between the radius and the proximal row of carpal bones.
What type of joint is your wrist joint?

What is carpal and radius bones connected to?
The carpal bones are connected to the radius bone through the radiocarpal joint, which is a synovial joint that allows for movement of the wrist. The radius bone articulates with the scaphoid and lunate carpal bones at the wrist.
Is the hinge joint in the hand and wrist?
