Q. 3 Carpal bone which fracture commonly:
 A Scaphoid
 B

Lunate

 C

Hammate

 D

Pisciform

Ans.
A
Explanation:

A i.e. Scaphoid


Q. 4

Which carpal bone fracture causes median nerve involvement?

 A

Scaphoid

 B

Lunate

 C

Trapezium

 D

Trapezoid

Ans.
B
Explanation:

B i.e. Lunate

Lunate dislocation is an uncommon injury occurring in young adults due to high-energy trauma. Median nerve injury is common if the lunate dislocates volarly into the carpal tunnel

Q. 8

Carpal bone which articulates with radius ‑

 A

Trapezium

 B

Scaphoid

 C

Capitate

 D

Hamate

Ans.
B
Explanation:

Two carpal bones articulate with radius: Scaphoid and lunate.

The inferior surface of radius bears a triangular area for scaphoid bone , and a medial quadrangular area for the lunate bone. This surface take part in forming the wrist joint
