1
Q

Ankle Joint:

  • Type joint
  • Attachments
A
  • (Ankle) Talocrural joint hinge synovial joint (Crural = leg, talus)
  • Talus is narrow posteriorly and fits loosely into the malleolar mortise formed by distal ends of tibia and fibula in plantarflexion

Q

Lateral Ligaments of the Ankle:

  • Ligaments
  • Function
A
  • Lateral side of ankle stabilized by 3 ligaments (prevent excessive inversion forces)
  • Anterior talofibular ligament: Lateral Malleolus to the neck of the talus
  • Calcaneofibular ligament: Lateral malleolus to the lateral surface of the calcaneus

Q

Medial Ligaments (Deltoid) of the Ankle:

Q

Subtalar Joint(s):

  • Actions
  • Joints (classify)
A
  • Inversion and eversion happen here
    2 discrete joints:
