Hence, this study aimed to determine if nerve fibers of PIN penetrate inside the dorsal capsule. The dorsal capsules of the wrist were dissected from both sides from 15 cadavers. Eventually, 30 dorsal capsules were dissected. It can be concluded that the PIN nerve fibers penetrate the dorsal capsule of the wrist, as the penetration was noticeable in every part evaluated. The present study proves that afferent fibers from the mechanoreceptors of the SLIL potentially pass through the DCSS and subsequently through the dorsal capsule of the wrist to the PIN. This knowledge can surely be of great use for hand surgeons that perform procedures on the dorsal wrist.}, type={Article}, title={Penetration of the posterior interosseous nerve fibers into the dorsal capsule of the wrist — a new perspective on wrist innervation}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/125136/PDF-MASTER/2022-02-FMC-02.pdf}, doi={10.24425/fmc.2022.141700}, keywords={wrist innervation, pin, dorsal capsule of the wrist}, }
