Exam 1 Learning Objectives Flashcards
Bones of the ankle and foot
- Tibia
- Talus
- Calcaneus
- Navicular
- Medial, middle, and lateral cuneiform
- Metatarsals
- Phalanges
Joints in the foot
Primary Mobile Joints - Talocrural (talotibial) - Subtalar - Metatarsophalangeal (MTP) Primary Moderate Moving Joints - Mid tarsal - Metatarsocuboid - Navicular-cuneiform - Lis Franc
Talocrural Joint
Tibia and talus
Subtalar Joint
Talus and calcaneus
Metatarsophalangeal
Metatarsals and phalanges
Midtarsal
2 Joints:
- Talonavicular
- Calcaneocuboid
Metatarsocuboid
Cuboid and 4-5 metatarsals
Navicular-Cuneiform
Articulation of the navicular with all 3 cuneiforms
Lis Franc
AKA tarsometatarsal or cuneiform-metatarsal
Structures that support the lateral longitudinal arch
- Tendon of peroneus longus, brevis, tertius
- Plantar aponeurosis
- Abductor digiti minimi
- Flexor digitorum brevis 4 & 5
- Long plantar ligament
- Short plantar ligament
Structures that support the medial longitudinal arch
- Tibialis posterior ligament
- Flexor digitorum longus ligament
- Flexor hallucis longus ligament
- Plantar calcaneonavicular ligament
- Abductor hallucis
- Flexor digitorum brevis II, III
Bones that make up the hindfoot
- Calcaneus
- Talus
Bones that make up the midfoot
Tarsals
- Navicular
- Cuboid
- Cuneiforms
Bones that make up the forefoot
- Metatarsals
- Phalanges
Medial Ankle Ligaments
- Deltoid
- 4 parts coming from the navicular, talus and calcaneus connecting with the medial malleolus
- Resists eversion, ER, and plantarflexion
Lateral Ankle Ligaments
- Anterior talofibular
- Calcaneofibular
- Posterior talofibular
- Resists ant/post glide of talus on the tibia, dorsiflexion, plantarflexion, and inversion
Anterior Talofibular
- Under greatest tension in plantarflexion
- Resists ankle inversion, plantarflexion, and anterior glide of the talus
Calcaneofibular
- Under greatest tension in dorsiflexion
- Resists ankle inversion- more so when neutral or dorsiflexed
Posterior Talofibular
- Under greatest tension in dorsiflexion
- Limits posterior talar glide and talar external rotation
