volar
volar (VOH-ler) - adj., of, relating to, or located on the same side as the palm of the hand or the sole of the foot.
So the union of palmar and plantar, when you want to be more generalized -- which you may want to in, for ex, veterinary contexts. Coined around 1815 from Latin vola, the hollow in the palm of the hand or the sole of the foot -- yes, Latin had a word that encompassed them both.
