- The nerve supply to pronator muscle of distal
radioulnar joint is?
A. Median nerve
B. Ulnar nerve
C. Posterior interosseous nerve
D. Anterior interosseous nerve
Ans: D) Anterior interosseous nerve
Explanation -
Pronation:
Nerve root responsible for the movement - C7,C8
Muscles responsible -
1) Pronator Quadratus, assisted by
2) Pronator teres
3) Flexor carpi radialis
helped by Gravity
So, Pronator Quadratus is the main pronator of the distal
radioulnar joint
Nerve Supply of Pronator
Quadratus -
Anterior
Interosseous nerve (A branch of Median nerve)
Nerve Supply of Pronator Teres
- Median nerve (before the median nerve passes
between the two heads of this muscle)
Nerve Supply of Flexor Carpi
Radialis - Median nerve
