Table of Ossification for Carpal Bones The carpus is entirely cartilaginous at birth,at the following times : Centres appear for these carpal bones Os magnumUnciformCuneiformSemilunar first year,second year,third year,fifth year. TrapeziumScaphoidTrapezoidPisiform fifth year,seventh year,eighth year,twelfth year. The os central, lying between the bones of the first and second rows, is present inman as a small cartilage situated between the trapezoid, trapezium, os magnum,and scaphoid, at the second month, and disappears about the fourth month offoetal life. In rare cases it persists as a separate bone in the adult. The epiphyses of the four inner metacarpal bones are seen at the distalends of the shafts, but in the phalanges and i
