Week 1 Case Study: Muscle


1. Name the muscles severed during the amputation event.


Flexor carpi radialis, flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor digitorum

superficialis, palmaris longus, flexor digitorum profundus, flexor pollicis

longus, extensor carpi radialis longus, extensor carpi radialis brevis,

extensor digitorum, extensor digiti minimi, extensor pollicis longus,

extensor indicis. (Saladin, 2026)


2. If the patient were no longer to properly pronate his arm, which

muscle do you think has been compromised?


Pronator teres muscle has been compromised.


3. In general, a patient with a severed limb has a smaller window of

time for successful replantation when compared with finger

replantation surgery. This is in part due to the difference in tissue

composition of the two anatomical structures. What does this say

about the metabolic demands for muscles, cartilage and bone? Why

do you suppose that is?
