Introduction:
Carpal bone is a part of the upper limbs of the appendicular system. They are eight in number and are present in the wrist. They are divided into the proximal carpal bones and the distal carpal bones, each four in number. The joints formed by the carpal bones allow limited twisting movement of the wrist.
