intermedium

Endochondral carpal bone articulating with the ulnare and the radiale. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the intermedium is

Endochondral carpal bone articulating with the ulnare and the radiale. The atlas records it as a bone at the organ scale in the human body.

Where the intermedium is

It sits in the upper limb and hand, within the skeletal system. Positioned deliberately as part of this species body plan.

What the intermedium connects to

The atlas records 3 typed relationships for it, across 2 kinds of connection. a kind of proximal carpal bone.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the intermedium. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as intermedium, lunar, lunate, lunate bone, os carpi intermedium and os lunatum, and 4 more. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the intermedium?

It sits in the upper limb and hand, within the skeletal system. Positioned deliberately as part of this species body plan.

What does the intermedium connect to?

A kind of: proximal carpal bone.

Is the intermedium the same in other species?

Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
