Q

17
Q

The fixation of a part in the position it would assume in adduction. A transverse fixation with the distal end displaced toward the midline.

18
Q

The fixation of a part in the position it would assume in abduction. A transverse fixation with the distal end displaced away from the midline.

19
Q

A fixation of the foot or part of the foot in the position it would assume if plantarflexed. The distal end of the part is further away from the tibia.

20
Q

A fixation of the foot or part of the foot in the position it would assume if dorsiflexed. The distal end of the part is closer to the tibia.

21
Q

A fixation of the part in the position it would assume if inverted. A frontal plane fixation in which the plantar surface is turned toward the midline.

22
Q

A fixation of the part in the position it would assume if everted. A frontal plane fixation in which the plantar surface is turned away from the midline.

23
Q

Refers to the hereditary defects which change the position of the entire foot. The deformity can be either in the talus, calcaneus or both.

24
Q

Normal or straight alignment (example is forefoot to rearfoot).
