inferior portion of the malleolar fossa and to the lateral tubercle on the posterior surface of the talus.
what is the weakest lateral ankle ligament?
anterior talofibular lig
what is the strongest and most deeply situated ligament of lateral ankle ligaments?
posterior talofibular ligament
medial ankle ligamnets are what type of ligament?
All are capsular lig
what are the superficial deltoid lig?
- tibionavicular 2. calcaneotibial 3.posterior talotibial
where does the tibionavicular lig attach to?
anterior colliculus and dorsomedial aspect of navicular
where does the calcaneotibial lig attach to?
anterior colliculus and sustentaculum tali
where does the posterior talotibial lig attach to?
anterior colliculus and medial tubercle on the posterior surface of the body of talus
what are the deep deltoid lig?
- anterior talotibial 2. deep posterior talotibial
anterior talotibial lig
attaches to anterior colliculus and intercollicular groove on the medial surface of the body of talus below the pear-shaped articular facet
deep posterior talotibial lig
attaches to the posterior colliculus ,and to the intercollicular groove adn to the medial tubercle on the posterior surface of the body of talus
what is the weakest component of deltoid lig?
tibionavicular lig
ankle sprain
twisting of the weightbearing foot usually in the inverted and plantarflexed position.damage usually includes anterior talofibular lig and calcaneofibular lig ( lateral ankle lig) posterior talofibular is rarely damaged due to its horizontal nature .
ankle fracture
weight bearing with foot in supinated or pronated position with a twisting of the ankle
in anterior ankle arthroscopy you want to avoid?
anterior tibial vessles and deep fibular nerve
in posterior ankle artroscopy you want to avoid?
posteior tibial vessles and tibial nerve
what are the structures that are viewed from anterior portal?
medial gutter, medial bend, sagittal groove, lateral bend, lateral gutter
functional joint is determined by?
motion about a joint axis
anatomical joint is determined by?
joint capsule
Name 2 functional joints of the intertarsal joints?
subtalar and midtarsal. subtalar joint is between talus and calcaneous .
Name the angulations of the functional subtaral joint
42 from transverse plane
48 from frontal plane
16 from sagittal plane
what is the major motion at the subtalar joint?
supination/pronation moslt in in the frontal and transverse plane
in OKC of subtalar joint the pronation consist of?
Eversion, Abduction , Dorsiflexion (PEABD)
in OKC of subtaltar joint the supination consists of?
Plantarflexion, inversion, adduction ( SPIN ADD)
in true OKC supination and pronation of subtalar joint what bone is remained stationary?
Talus but the ankle is plantarflexed and dorsiflexed resulting in tlus to plantarflexed and dorsiflexed
CKC supination of subtalar joint
- calcaneal inversion
- abduction and dorsiflexion of the talus-external rotaion of tibia
CKC pronation of subtalat joint consist of
- calcaneal eversion
- adduction and plantarflexion of the talus
- internal rotaion of tibia
Functional midtarsal joint is AKA?
transverse tarsal joint, chopart’s joint, cyma line
Functional midtarsal joint is formed by?
calcaneocuboid, Talonavicular
what are the 2 axes of midtarsal joint that motion occurs about?
longitudinal midtarsal joint axis
oblique midtarsal joint axis
longitudinal axis
is angulated 75 from the frontal plane
oblique angle
is angulated 57 from sagittal plane and 52 from transverse plane.
what is the motion about the longitudinal axis?
frontal lane so inversion and eversion while supination and pronation occurs
what is the motion about the oblique axis?
primarily adduction/abduction and plantarflexion/dorsiflexion while supination and pronation to occur.
what is motion about transverse plane?
abduction/adduction
what is motion about frontal plane?
inversion/eversion
what is motion about sagittal plane?
dosrsiflexion/plantarflexion
Anatomically the subtalar joint is divided into and ——–and ———-synovial cavity.
anterior and posterior
the posterior subtalar articular cavity involves
the posterior articular areas of the calcaneous and talus
the anterior subtalar articulation involves
middle and anterior articular areas of calcaneous and talus

- Anterior talocalcaneal lig ( cervical)
- posterior talocalcaneal lig
- lateral talocalcaneal lig
- medial talocalcaneal lig
- Interosseous talocalcaneal lig
posterior talocalcaneal capsular lig is reinforces anteriorly by?
interosseous talocalcaneal lig
Anterior talocalcaneal lig ( cervical)
attached to lateral surface of the neck of the talus and sinus tarsi of the calcaneous
posterior talocalcaneal lig
