This relieves pressure on the newly formed wrist joint of the pisiform, hamate and capitate.
The fourth metacarpal is connected to the capitate and hamate, and the fifth metacarpal is connected to the hamate.
These movements take place through a transverse axis passing through the capitate bone.
These are racemes that are capitate or oblong, 4 to 15 cm in length.
Laterally, it articulates with the scaphoid, medially with the triquetral, and distally with the capitate.
The formation of these centers roughly follows a chronological spiral pattern starting in the capitate and hamate during the first year of life.
The flowers are produced in a more or less capitate inflorescence, each flower bell-shaped, blue, 15 mm long, 2.5 times longer than the calyx.
The third metacarpal is connected to the trapezium, to the capitate, and to the hamate.
