Lecture 5 Flashcards
Key structures to consider following injury of the foot and ankle
-talus position
-cuboid position
-navicular position
-base of the 5th
-sesamoid bones
What to look for in terms of talus position
-is it anterior
What to look for in terms of cuboid position
-is it rotated
What to look for in terms of navicular position
-is it rotated or dropped
What to look for in terms of base of the 5th
-tender on palpation
What to look for in terms of sesamoid bones
-pain
Where are the sesamoid bones located
-within flexor hallucis brevis tendons
What is the origin of the plantar fascia
-medial process of calcaneal tuberosity
What is the insertion of the plantar fascia
-proximal aspect of digits
Lateral ligaments of the ankle
-anterior talofibular lig (ATFL)
-calcaneofibular lig (CFL)
-posterior talofibular lig (PTFL)
-anterior inferior tibiofibular lig (AITFL)
-posterior inferior tibiofibular lig (PITFL)
What are the 2 most common ligaments sprained in the ankle
-ATFL
-CFL
Ligaments of the medial ankle
-deltoid ligament
-spring ligament
What 4 ligaments make up the deltoid ligament
-tibionavicular
-tibiocalcaneal
-tibiospring
-tibiotalar
What is the spring ligament also known as
-plantar calcaneonavicular lig
What are the different types of tibiotalar ligaments
-anterior tibiotalar
-posterior superficial tibiotalar
-posterior deep tibiotalar
What makes up tom dick and harry
-tibialis posterior
-flexor digitorum longus
-flexor hallucis longus
When to check
-when looking at medial aspect of foot ankle
What are the movements of tibialis posterior
-plantar flexion and inversion
Deep plantar flexors
-tom dick and harry
What are the movements of the flexor digitorum longus
-plantar flexion and toe flexion
What are the movements of the flexor hallucis longus
-plantar flexion and big toe flexion
What are the movements of the tibialis anterior
-dorsi flexion and inversion
What is the movement of achilles tendon
-plantar flexion
What are the peroneal tendons
-peroneus longus
-peroneus brevis
What is the movement of peroneus longus
-eversion
What is the movement of peroneus brevis
-plantar flexion and eversion
Functional anatomy of the tibialis anterior
-eccentrically lowers the longitudinal arch
Functional anatomy of tibialis posterior
-stabilizer of longitudinal arch
-absorbs weight of step
Functional anatomy of anterior talus
-what happens up the chain
What is an eccentric contraction
-lengthening of the muscle as it contracts
Ranges of motion of the toes
-flexion
-extension
-abduction
-adduction
Joints of the ankle
-tibiotalar joint
-subtalar joint
Ranges of motion of the tibiotalar joint
-dorsiflexion
-plantarflexion
Ranges of motion of the subtalar joint
-inversion
-eversion
What is supination
-combination of plantarflexion, inversion, and adduction
-causes the sole of foot to face medially
What is pronation
-combination of dorsiflexion, eversion, and abduction
-causes the sole of foot to face laterally
