This high-detail 3D printed specimen presents a combined superficial and deep dissection of the anterior right distal arm, forearm, and hand, offering a comprehensive view of key muscular, neural, and tendinous structures.
Proximal Forearm & Cubital Region
Medially, the ulnar nerve is shown passing through the cubital tunnel and deep to the flexor carpi ulnaris. The cubital fossa has been opened by removing most flexor muscles, clearly exposing the biceps brachii and brachialis insertions, as well as the courses of the median, ulnar, and superficial radial nerves in the anterior compartment.
Forearm: Muscle and Nerve Detail
Muscular branches of the median nerve are visible entering the pronator teres and flexor digitorum profundus. The pronator teres insertion lies between the partially exposed supinator and flexor pollicis longus.
Near the wrist, tendons of flexor digitorum superficialis, flexor digitorum profundus, and flexor pollicis longus are preserved, passing through the carpal tunnel alongside the median nerve. The pronator quadratus is partially visible deep to these structures.
The flexor retinaculum is covered by the palmaris longus tendon, palmar aponeurosis, and palmaris brevis muscle.
Wrist & Anatomical Snuffbox
Laterally, the superficial radial nerve crosses over the extensor pollicis brevis and abductor pollicis longus tendons, entering the roof of the anatomical snuffbox, aiding in topographic orientation.
Palm & Digital Structures
The hand is superficially dissected between the thenar and hypothenar eminences, removing only skin and fascia. The tendons of flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus extend through the palm,
