Between the ligamentous border of the sesamoid and the immediately adjacent part of the third phalanx, short, but strong, fibres form a phalango-sesamoidean ligament (ligamentum phalangosesamoideum) that, while permitting a certain measure of movement, retains the sesamoid firmly in position. The joint capsule (capsula articularis) is attached to the articular margin of the three bones which enter into the formation of the joint. In front (dorsal) it is intimately connected with the common extensor tendon and the collateral â iiSW)^^^/!- ^^^j^ ^^^ ^°^^^ ^^^® capsule is.
