Joints of the Foot and Ankle Part 2 Flashcards
Articular facet for cuboid
part of calcaneus that articulates with the cuboid
Articular facet for cuboid is __ shaped
saddle;
concave superior to inferior,
convex medial to lateral
anterior process of the calcaneus
- Projects over cuboid
- Visible on lateral radiograph
calcaneocuboid joint
between calcaneus and cuboid, part of midtarsal joint
beak of cuboid articulation with coronoid fossa of calcaneous helps
stabalize joint during inversion
calcaneocuboid joint is a
diarthrosis saddle joint (sellar)
calcaneocuboid joint joint capsule attaches to
articular margins
blood supply to the calcaneocuboid joint
dorsalis pedis, lateral plantar, perforating fibular, lateral tarsal
Dorsal (dorsolateral) calcaneocuboid ligament attaches from
distal dorsal calcaneus to proximal dorsolateral aspect of cuboid
Bifurcate ligament
- Dorsal calcaneonavicular ligament
- Calcaneocuboid ligament (dorsomedial calcaneocuboid)
long plantar ligament (superfical calcaneocuboid) attaches from
trigonum plantare of calcaneus
to fibular ridge of cuboid AND plantar aspect of the bases of metatarsals 2-4(5)
which ligament separates origins of quadratus plantae ?
long plantar ligament
long plantar ligament creates ____ by its attachment to fibular ridge (cuboid ridge, or crest) and met bases
fibular (peroneal) canal
long plantar ligament helps maintain what arch
lateral longitudinal arch
short plantar ligament (deep calcaneocuboid) attaches from
calcaneal tubercle (anterior tubercle of calcaneus) to cuboid, posterior to fibular ridge including the beak (coronoid process of cuboid)
short plantar ligament (deep calcaneocuboid) helps maintain
lateral longitudinal arch
stabalizing ligaments of calcaneocuboid joint
- dorsal (dorsolateral) calcaneocuboid
- bifurcate
- long plantar
- short plantar
2 joints of the midtarsal joint (transverse tarsal joint. chopart’s joint)
Calcaneocuboid joint + talonavicular portion of talocalcaneonavicular
midtarsal joint is a ___ joint
fucntional,
triplanar: supination and pronation
cyma line
- Line through midtarsal joint
- Undisrupted “S”-shaped curve
3 anatomic joints:
posterior talocalcaneal,
talocalcaneonavicular,
and calcaneocuboid
talocalcaneal + talocalcaneonavicular
subtalar
talonavicular + calcaneocuboid
midtarsal
Ligaments in the Tarsal Sinus
- Interosseous talocalcaneal ligament
- Cervical ligament
- Bifurcate ligament
- Frondiform ligament
lateral root of the frondiform ligament originates
lateral to EDB
lateral root of the frondiform ligament blends with
inferior fibular retinaculum
intermediate root of the frondiform originates from
sinus tarsi, medial to EDB
intermediate root of the frondiform is posterior to
cervical ligament
intermediate root of the frondiform unites with
lateral root to form superficial component of frondiform ligament
3 components of the medial root of frondiform ligament
- lateral calcaneal component
- medial calcaneal component
- Talar component
Lateral calcaneal component originates
in sinus tarsi, posterior to intermediate root
Medial calcaneal component attaches
to floor of tarsal canal
talar component attaches
to roof of tarsal canal (neck of talus)
great tarsal joint consist of
bones of the midfoot
great tarsal joint articulations share
joint capsule lined with synovium
blood supply to the great tarsal joint
branches of dorsalis pedis (tarsal arteries), medial and lateral plantar arteries
