Bony palmar ridges of the phalanges of the human fingers Vrije Universiteit Brussel
PURPOSE:
On imaging studies, bony ridges can be seen at the palmar aspect of the phalanges of the fingers. Our purpose was to address the following: (1) which structures insert on to the ridges and what is the histological appearance? (2) Is there a difference between the different fingers? (3) Is there a correlation between the ridges and age?
MATERIALS AND METHODS:
Two observers retrospectively evaluated 270 radiographs ...
