Etiology and Occurrence.--Inflammation of the muscular or tendinous parts of the carpal flexors, does not occur as frequently as does inflammation of the flexors of the extremity. They are subject to injury such ...
... Dorsal flexion is checked by the flexor tendons and dorsal ligaments. Volar flexion is restrained by the extensor tendons.
... Flexion of the elbow is avoided because contraction of the biceps brachii (flexor brachii) or the extensors, which are antagonists of the flexors of the carpus, tenses the carpal flexors and pain is thereby ...
The distal end of the second phalanx (os corona) has but slight lateral motion and this is manifested principally when it is in a state of volar flexion. Undue dorsal flexion is prevented by ...
... The latter pair (flexor metatarsi, muscular and tendinous portions, because of their attachment to the external condyle of the femur and to the metatarsal bone) are enabled to automatically flex the tarsal joint when ...
... Since the stifle and hock joints extend and flex in unison, there is presented also an extension of the tarsus. Extension of the stifle joint would increase the distance between the femoral origin of ...

... Symptomatology.--When the anatomy and function of the flexor tendons and suspensory ligament is thoroughly understood, recognition of rupture of either of these structures is easily recognized. When one considers that in rupture, a ...
... Contraction of the deep flexor tendon (perforans) causes an elevation of the heel. The foot can not set flat because the insertion of the deep flexor tendon to the solar surface of the distal ...
... Pressure on the navicular bone is diminished and tension on the flexor tendon is relieved by even slight volar flexion.
