Bones of the foot complex

Tibia, fibula, calcaneus, talus, navicular, (lateral, intermediate, medial) cuneiform, cuboid, metacarpals, phalanges

Tiger Cubs Need M.I.L.C.

Regions of the foot

Midfoot, hindfoot, and forefoot

Bones of hindfoot

Calcaneus, talus

Joint(s) of the hindfoot

Subtalar joint (inferior talus and calcaneus)

Hindfoot Ligamentous Support

Medial


deltoid lig


Lateral


Interosseous talocalcaneal, medial talocalcaneal, lateral talocalcaneal

What is the Talocrural joint and what are some of its features?

It articulates between 3 bones, the tibia, fibula and talus.



  • 2 malleolus, medial is more proximal and anterior than the lateral malleolus

Describe motion of the proximal tibiofibular joint

Very small motion that consists of superior and inferior sliding of the fibula and as fibular rotation

What is the distal tibiofibular joint

The joint is a syndesmosis (fibrous union) and thus the distal tibia and fibula don't actually come into physical contact with each other.


All ligaments associated with this joint lie between the tibia and fibula and contribute to stability of both joints

What is the midfoot composed of?

The navicular, 3 cuneiforms and cuboid

List midfoot articulations (6)


  1. Talocalcaneonavicular
  2. Calcaneocuboid
  3. Intercuneiform
  4. Cuboideonavicular
  5. Cuneocuboid
  6. Cuneonavicular


Which ligaments supports the talocalcaneonavicular joint and how does it connect?

The plantar Calcaneonavicular ligament (spring ligament)


It is bifurcate and has 2 parts


1. Calcaneocuboid


2. Calcaneonavicular




Talonavicular Ligament

Which ligaments support the Calcaneocuboid joint?

1.The bifurcate ligament


2. Plantar calcaneocuboid ligament


3. Long plantar ligament

Which ligaments support the Intercuneiform joints?

The doral and Plantar intercuneiform ligaments

Which ligaments support the Cuneocuboid joint?

Planter and dorsal cuneocuboid ligaments

What ligaments support the cuneonavicular joints?

The plantar and dorsal cuneonavicular ligaments

What are the components of the forefoot?

5 metatarsals (MTs)



  • MTs 1-3 have their own cuneiform, but MT4/5 share the cuboid



The phalanges

What are the Joints of the forefoot? (4)


  1. Tarsometatarsal Joint
  2. Intermetatarsal joint
  3. Metatarsophalangeal joint (MTP)
  4. Interphalangeal joints (Proximal IP and Distal IP)

What are the support ligaments of the intermetatarsal joint?

The plantar and dorsal metatarsal ligaments

What are the support ligaments for the metatarsophalangeal joint?

1. Plantar fascia


2. Plantar ligament


3. Collateral ligaments (medial and lateral)



What are the supporting ligaments for the Interphalangeal joints?

1. Plantar and dorsal joint capsule


2. Collateral ligaments (M and L)

What are the arches of the foot? (3)

Longitudinal, transverse and medial

What are muscles that stabilize the medial arch?

Intrinsic





  • Abductor Hallucis
  • Flexor Hallucis Brevis

Extrinsic





  • Tibialis Posterior*
  • Flexor Hallucis
  • Longus
  • Flexor Digitorum Longus

What are muscles that stabilize the lateral arch?


  • m.peroneus brevis (PB)
  • m.abductor digiti minimi

What are muscles that stabilize the transversal arch?


  • m.peroneus longus (PL)
  • m.tibialis posterior (TP)
  • m.flexor digitorum brevis (FDB)
  • m.abductor hallucis (Ab.H)
  • m.adductor hallucis (Ad.H)
  • m.abductor digiti minimi

What is the medial arch?

It extends from calcaneus bone to talus, navicular, 3 cuneiforms, and proximal ends of 3 medial metatarsals

What is the lateral longitudinal arch?

extends from calcaneus to cuboid and proximal ends of 4th & 5th metatarsals

What is the transverse arch?

extends across foot from 1st metatarsal to the 5th metatarsal

What bones make up the Medial arch?


  • Calcaneus
  • Talus
  • Navicular
  • 1-3 cuneiforms
  • 1-3 MT’s

What ligaments support the Medial arch?


  • Plantar Calcaneonavicular
  • Long Plantar Lig
  • Deltoid
  • Plantar fascia

What bone makeup the Lateral Longitudinal arch?

Calcaneus


Cuboid


4-5th MT’s

What ligaments support the Lateral Longitudinal arch?

Long and Short Plantar lig


Plantar Fascia
