Bones, Ligs, Joints Foot Flashcards
part of calcaneus in contact with ground
medial tubercle
tarsal bones
talus, calcaneus, navicular, cuboid, 3 cuneiforms
fall landing on the calcaneus often causes a blank calcaneal fracture, and causes disruption of the blank joint
comminuted, subtalar
proximal tibiofibular joint is a blank joint
planar synovial
distal tibiofibular joint is a blank joint
fibrous syndesmosis
space between the tib and fib
mortise
binds mortise together
interosseous membrane
talocrural joint is a blank joint
hinge synovial
ligament of talocrural joint that keeps the mortise together
posterior tibiofibular ligament (inferior transvere)
talocrural allows these movements
dorsiflexion/plantar flexion, some rotation, ab + adduction
medial ligament of the ankle
deltoid ligament
detloid ligament includes these
anterior tibiotalar, posterior tibiotalar, tibionavicular, tibiocalcaneal
deltoid ligament prevents blank
eversion
deltoid ligament is extremely blank
ligament
3 lateral ligaments of ankle
anterior/posterior talofibular ligament, calcaneofibular
