Leg, Ankle, Foot Flashcards
how many bones in teh foot
26
how much for body weight does tibia bear
90%
fibula bears how much body weight
10%
which side of Talocrural joint how more bony support and which has more ligamentous support
lateral = bony medial = ligementous
what bones made the rear foot
calcaneus, talus
what bones make the mid foot
tarsals: cuboid, cuneiforms (3), navicular
what bones Make the forefoot
metatarsals and phalanges
what bones made the lateral longitudinal arch
teh calcaneus, talus, cuboid,, 4th and 5th metatarsals
what bones makes the medial longitudinal arch
the calcaneus, talus, navicular, cuneiforms, and 1st, 2nd and 3rd metatarsals
where is teh transverse arch (proximal)
medio - lateral under cuboid and cunieforms
where is the distal transverse arch
medio-lateral under the middle of the metatarsals
three main parts of talus and do muscles attach?
no muscles attached
head, neck, body
what does the talus articulate with (3 articular surfaces of talus)
inferiorly: three facets of calcaneus
anteriorly: navicular
medial and lateral: medial and lateral malleoli of tib / fib
function of talus for force transmission
translate horizontal to vertical and vertical to horizontal
how to palpate talar dome
just distal to tip/fib articulation
what is the sinus tarsi
tunnel between talus and calcaneus bones
what structures run through the groove in the posterior/medial aspect of the talus ?
Tom Dick And Harry Tibialis posterior Flexor digitorum Artery, Nerve (tibial) Flexor Hallucis Longus
what structure is located on bottom of calcaneus for shock absorption
fat pad
which cuneiform articular which which metatarsals
lateral - 3rd
intermediate - 2nd
medial - 1st
what bone do cuneiforms sit on top of
navicular
what muscle passes through groove in inferior aspect of teh cuboid, what does this muscle do
Peroneus Longus, make a right turn and supports transverse arch
what does the cuboid articulate with
posterior: calcaneus
medially: lateral cuneiform
anteriorly: fourth and fifth metatarsals
which metatarsal has the least mobility
2nd
what inserts on the tuberosity at the base of teh 5th metatarsal and what is it called when this is broken off and how does that happen
peroneal brevis
jones fracture
ankel sprain is the cause
what is the function of the concave shape of the shafts of teh metatarsals
increased load absorption
what is the function of the sesamoid bones on teh posterior surface of teh 1st metatarsal ahead
increase moment arms for the flexor Hallucis Brevis
provide a guide for the the tendon of the flexor Hallucis Longus
how many phalanges in each toe
1st: 2
2-5: 3
what motion occurs at the Talocrural joint
plantar flexion and dorsi flexion
what motion occurs at the subtalar joint
inversion/eversion (internal and external rotation)
what motions create pronation in OKC
dorsiflexion, abduction, eversion
what motions create supination in OKC
plantarfelxion, adduction, inversion
what motion create supination in CKC
dorsiflexion, abduction, inversion
what motion create pronation in CKC
plantar flexion, adduction, eversion
ROM for plantar and dorsi flexion
plantar - 50
dorsi - 20-30
closed packed position of the proximal tibiofibular joint
full dorsi flexion
what type of joint is the promixal tibofibular joint
synovial
what type of joint is the distal tibiofibular joint
syndesmotic
what occurs at the distal tibiofibular joint when dorsiflexion occurs
joint widens to accommodate talus
