Through anatomical morphology, to accumulate the relevant parameters of the A1 pulley of each adult finger. A total of 100 fingers were selected, dissected layer by layer, and the A1 pulley and neurovascular of each finger were observed. Measure the length of the A1 pulley, the distance between the needle knife insertion point and the proximal edge of A1 pulley, and the nerves and blood vessels on both sides.

A total of 20 fingers were selected from 20 intact adult upper limb specimens, a small amount of emerald green waterproof dye was injected from the needle insertion point, dissected layer by layer, and the A1 pulley and neurovascular bundle were observed. Observe the loosening of the thumb A1 pulley after 5 and 10 times of simulated needle knife cutting on the specimen; observe the relationship between the needle knife entry point and the A1 pulley under the thumb extension and abduction, and the thumb extension neutral position respectively; further observe the histological characteristics, and the relationship between needle entry point and A1 pulley by microscope.

Methods: Anthropological non-metric observation and craniometry were used to study 285 dry skull specimens of Chinese adults.
Results: A total of 91 specimens with closed extracranial sutures were observed, with an occurrence rate of 31.
