    The interphalangeal joints of the hand are synovial hinge joints that allow flexion and extension between the phalanges. They have articular surfaces between the heads and bases of adjacent phalanges, and are stabilized by medial and lateral collateral ligaments with innervation and blood supply from the proper palmar digital nerves and arteries.
