(9) Intricate in design and function, the hand is an amazing
work of anatomy. Form follows function in the hand; therefore,
any injury to the underlying structures of the hand carries the
potential for serious handicap. To reduce this risk, even the
smallest hand injuries require a good medical evaluation. The
hand consists of 38 bones; 10 metacarpal bones and 28 phalanges
(finger bones). Text: eMedicineHealth, Inc. Guide to
