  • Front
  • Back
what is the bone that articulates the foot with the leg?
the talus
what bone transmits weight to the ground?
the calcaneus
what are the major bony features of the calcaneus?
the calcaneal tuberosity and the sustentaculum tali

this supports the head of the talus, and has a groove for FHL
What are the tarsal bones and their position?
Lateral- Cuboid
Medial-Navicular
then the 3 cuniforms
a lateral, intermediate, and medial
what are the 3 important metatarsals? and what are they distinguished by?
the 1st is the most robust
2nd is the longest
5th has a tuberocity for fibularis brevis
whats included in the rays of the foot?
the metatarsal + the phalanges
which joints allow for inversion and eversion of the foot?
the transverse tarsal joints

and the subtalar joint
which digit do adduction and abduction occur relative to?
the 2nd digit
What structures are found in the medial fascial compartment?
Abductor hallicus
flexor hallicus brevis
flexor hallicus longus tendon
medial plantar VAN
what lies in the central fascial compartment?
flexor digitorum brevis
flexor digitalis longus tendons
flexor hallicus longus tendon
lateral plantar VAN
what is found in the lateral fascial compartment?
abductor digitiminimi

flexor digitimini brevis
what is found in the dorsal fascial compartment?
extensor hallicus brevis
extensor digitorum brevis

dorsal VAN
What is found in Layer 1 of the plantar foot muscles? what nerves act on these muscles?
Abductor digit minimi (lateral plantar n)

Flexor digitorum brevis (medial plantar n)

Abductor hallucis (medial plantar n)
what is found in layer 2 of the plantar foot muscles? what nerves act on these muscles?
this contains

Quadratus plantae (lateral plantar n)

The lumbricals (1st- medial plantar n, 2,3,4-lateral plantar n)
these attach to the FDL tendons and run to the extensor expansion

also FDL and FHL tendons are found in layer 2
What is found in layer 3 of the plantar foot? what nerves act on stuff?
The flexor digit minimi brevis (lateral plantar n)

adductor hallucis (lateral n) 2 heads

flexor hallucis brevis (medial plantar n)
what is found in layer 4 of the plantar foot? what nerves act on stuff?
the plantar interossei (PAD...lateral plantar n) digits 3-5/ flex MTP

the dorsal interossei (DAB..lateral plantar n) digits 2-4/ flex MTP
What does the medial plantar nerve innervate? where does it come from?
This comes from the tibial nerve

this innervates
1st lumbricles, FHB, FDB, AbH

also the sensory to the medial sole, 3 and 1/2 medial digits
What does the lateral plantar nerve innervate? where does it come from?
this innervates the 2,3,4th lumbricles
adductor hallicus
flexor digit minimi brevis
quadratus plantae
abductor digit minimi
What nerves provide sensory to the plantar portion of the digits?
the common plantar digital nerves which then branch into the proper plantar digital nerves
where does the saphenous nerve come from? where does it provide sensory?
this comes from the femoral nerve

provides sensory to the medial foot
where does the sural nerve come from?
where does it provide sensory to?
this comes from the femoral nerve

provides sensory to the lateral foot
what provides sensory to the heal?
tibial nerve (calcaneal branches)
what does the plantar reflex test?
L4-S2

done by stroking lateral foot
what artery is the primary supply to the sole of the foot?
the lateral plantar artery
what artery is the primary supply to the hallux muscles?
the medial plantar artery
where does the medial/lateral plantar artery come from?
the posterior tibial artery
where does the deep plantar artery come from?
this comes from the dorsalis pedis, which comes from the anterior tibial artery
where does the medial venous flow go?
this goes to the medial marginal vein...then to the great saphenous vei
where does the lateral venous flow go?
this goes to the lateral marginal vein, then to the small saphenous vein
where does superficial medial lymph flow go?
this follows great saphenous vein, to the superficial inguinal nodes
where does superficial lateral lymph flow go?
this goes along with the small saphenous vein, to the deep popliteal and then deep inguinal nodes
