name the 4 ankle joints
|
tibia/fibula
talus-tibia/fibula subtalar transverse tarsal |
|
what kind of joint is the tibia/fibula?
|
slightly movable with an interosseous membrane
|
|
what kind of joint is the talus-tibia/fibula?
|
synovial hinge joint.
permits dorsi flexion (toes up) and plantar flexion. |
|
what is and kind of joint is the subtalar?
|
Calcaneous/talus.
synovial joint that allows inversion and eversion. |
|
what is the transverse tarsal joint and what does it do?
|
calcaneous/cuboid and talus/navicular.
greatest area of movement for inversion and eversion. common place for foot amputation. |
|
what are the 2 ankle ligaments?
|
Medial collateral
Lateral collateral |
|
attachments of the medial collateral ligament of the ankle and what does it do:
|
Tibia to the talus, navicular, and calcaneous.
limits eversion (soul out). Strong ligament, will tear of end of tibia (avulsion) |
|
attachments of the lateral collateral ligament of the ankle and what does it do:
|
fibula to the calcaneous and talus.
limits inversion (sole in) |
|
retinacula
|
wrappings of connectie tissue that hold tendons in place.
very tough deep fascia surrounding these muscles/ |
|
deep fascia compartmentalizes the leg into:
|
anterior, posterior and lateral compartments
|
|
anterior compartment leg muscles innervation, action, and where they run:
|
inn: deep peroneal
action: dorsi flexors tibialus anterior (1st metatarsal) extensor hallucis longus (digit 1) extensor digiturom longus (digits 2-5) peroneus tertias (5th metatarsal) |
|
lateral compartment leg muscles innervation, action, and where they run:
|
inn: superficial peroneal
action: eversion, plantar flexion. Peroneus longus (1st metatarsal) Peroneus brevis (5th metatarsal) both run under the lateral malleous and can be planar flexors. |
|
posterior compartment leg muscles, innervation, action, and where they run:
|
inn: tibial nerve
action: plantar flexors Gastrocnemius Soleus both are slow twitch muscles and attach to the calcaneal tendon. |
|
deep posterior compartment leg muscles, innervation, action, and where they run:
|
inn: tibial nerve.
flexor hallucis longus (flexes big toe when walking). flexor digitorum longus. tibialus posterior. these run under the medial malleous |
|
the foot is designed to:
|
support bipedal posture
distribute weight. locomotion |
|
what are the 2 arches
|
Longitudinal arch and transverse arch
|
|
the "keystone" of the arch is the
|
talus
|
|
weight on the talus is transfered to:
|
the calcaneous (heel) and to the metatarsals/phalanges joint.
|
|
4 ligaments to maintain the arch
|
plantar-calcaneal-navicular lig
short plantar lig long plantar lig Plantar Aponerosis |
|
plantar-calcaneal-navicular ligament (spring ligament) runs from:
|
calcaneous to navicular (under foot)
|
|
Short plantar runs from
|
calcaneous to cuboid
(under foot) |
|
Long plantar runs from
|
calcaneous to metatarsals. lies superficial to the short plantar ligament. (under foot)
|
|
plantar aponerosis...
|
calcaneous to MP joint.
its a connective tissue, not ligament.lies in deep fascia. helps maintain arch. tightens when toes extend for push off. |
|
Dorsal foot muscles:
extensor hallucis brevis extensor digitorum brevis |
inn: deep peronela nerve.
hallucis goes to digit 1 digitorum goes to digits 2-5 |
|
Plantar muscles have _____ compartments and are innervated by:
|
medial compartment
central compartment (4 layers) lateral compartment inn: tibial nerve which splits into lateral and medial plantar nerves. |
|
medial compartment plantar muscles go to:
|
digit 1
|
|
central compartment muscles go to:
|
digits 2-4
|
|
lateral compartment muscles go to
|
digit 5
|
|
layer 1 muscles of central compartment of the foot
|
flexor digitorum brevis
abductor hallucis abductor digiti minimi |
|
layer 2 muscles of central compartment of the foot
|
flexor digitorum longus
quadratus plantae lumbricals |
|
layer 3 muscles of central compartment of the foot
|
adductor hallucis
flexor hallucis brevis flexor digiti minimi |
|
layer 4 muscles of central compartment of the foot
|
interossei
