Insertion: Proximal sesamoid bones of digits II-V. Action: Flexion of the metacarpophalangeal joints. Innervation: N. ulnaris. The short flexor of the first digit, m. flexor digiti I brevis (Figs. 4-10 and 4-11), lies between the ab- ductor and adductor of the first digit. Origin: From the distal palmar surface of the first carpal bone. Insertion: Phalanx I of the first digit, distal to the insertion of the abductor. Action: Flexion of the first digit. Innervation: N.
