Description[edit | edit source]
Pronator Quadratus is a deep-seated,short, flat quadrilateral muscle with parallel running fibres.[1] Muscle has a mean length of 6 cm and mean width of 3.5 cm, the pronator quadratus muscle is confined in a small closed compartment, delimited by the distal side of the interosseous membrane dorsally and by its own fascia on the volar surface.[2]The muscle has been neglected to a great extend in the anatomical and functional literature.The study confirms,that the muscle consist of two head different head- Superficial head which is prime mover in forearm pronation, and the deep head which is dynamic stabilizer of radioulnar joint.[3]
Origin[edit | edit source]
Muscle arises from the oblique ridge on the anterior surface of the distal fourth of the Ulna.[1]
