Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The anatomical snuff box is bordered by the extensor pollicis longus (EPL) tendon on the ulnar side. The radial artery runs through it, but does not form the roof. The abductor pollicis longus (APL) and extensor pollicis brevis (EPB) form the radial border. The scaphoid and trapezium are palpable in its floor, not the triquetrum.
