THE METACARPAL BONES (OSSA METACARPALIA) The metacarpal bones are five in number and articulate with thedistal carpal bones and each other, proximally, and with the firstrow of phalanges, distally. The first, or thumb metacarpal, is themost mobile. Each consists of a base, shaft and head. The base is the carpal extremity, each is wedge-shaped and thearticular surface varies with the joint that it forms. The first{thumb) is the shortest and strongest. The second (index finger)is the longest. The shaft of each is smooth and narrow in the dorsal surface is triangular an
