symptoms of equinus
|
-corn of 5th toe
-adductovarus of 4th and 5th -HAV deformity -plantar fascitis/heel spur -neuroma symptoms -contracture of all the digits (extensor substitution) |
|
what is extensor substitution
|
-occurs when the anterior muscles are weak
-the EDL is then recruited to raise the foot in swing phase -the EDL then overpowers the lumbricals that normally equalize the EDL pull and you get digital contractures |
|
what is flexor substitution
|
-occurs when there is a weakness in the major calf muscles (Gastrocnemius and Soleus muscles), and other tendons, including those that flex the toes
-Flexor Digitorum Longus tendons) are recruited to help the foot in heel-off. Because of their overuse, the flexor tendons to the toes overpower the extensors, and hammertoes may develop. |
|
what is the MC cause of hammertoes
|
-flexor stabilization
-This occurs in patients who excessively pronate -the FDL is recruited to stabilize the foot. But because the muscle attaches to the toes by way of a tendon, it begins to overpower the small muscles (Interosseous muscles) that stabilize the toes, and the toes contract. -Adductovarus rotation of the fourth and fifth toes, (where the toes rotate on their sides), is commonly seen with this condition. |
|
what is the relationship b/w axis of motion and plane of motion
|
-axis of motion is always perpendicular to the plane in which the motion takes place
-the motion takes place in one plane and hte axis lies in the other two planes |
|
the greater the amount of degrees b/w an axis of motion and a cardinal body plane, what will happen to the amount of motion that occurs in that body plane
|
-motion will increase
|
|
range of DF and PF of the ankle
|
20-30 DF
30-50 PF -only 10 DF from neutral needed for walking |
|
what joint has triplanar motion (pronation and supination)
|
STJ (its axis lies oblique to all three plane)
MTJ (bc it has two axes) 1st ray 5th ray ankle |
|
where is the axis of the STJ located and where does it run
|
-42 from transverse and frontal
-16 from sagittal -enters the heel and exits out the dorsal talar neck |
|
STJ has an axis that is oblique to all three planes giving it triplane motion, how does the MTJ have triplane motion
|
-the MTJ has two axes (oblique and longitudinal)
|
|
what plane of motion does the oblique axis of MTJ move in, the longitudinal axis?
|
-oblique axis permits motion in transverse and sagittal (ab/add and DF/PF)
-longitudinal axis permits motion in frontal plane (eversion/inversion) |
|
what bones does the 1st ray consist of
|
-1st met and medial cuneiform
|
|
which joint has a 1:1 ratio of sagital and frontal plane motion
|
-eventhough the 1st ray is triplanar, most of its motion is in the sag and frontal
-when it DF 1 degree, it also inverts 1 degree -when it PF 1 degree, it also everts 1 degree |
|
the 2nd, 3rd and 4th rays, as well as digital IPJ allow motion in what plane
|
-they are all uniplanar and produce purely sagittal plane motion
|
|
how many axes do the MPJ have
|
-two (transverse and sagittal)
|
|
how is the first MPJ a hinge (ginglymus) and an arthrodial joint (sliding)
|
-it acts as a hinge joint for the first 25 of DF
-then acts as a sliding joint with the 1st met PF and MPJ dorsiflexing after the intial 25 degrees |
|
what does degrees of freedom of a joint mean
|
-it refers to the numbers of axes of a joint
-the ankle and most foot joints have one DOF -the MPJ and MTJ each have 2 axes and thus 2 DOF |
|
what bones does the 5th ray consist of
|
-the 5th met
-unlike the 1st ray consisting of 1st met and medial cuneiform |
|
what planes of motion does the 5th ray permit movt in
|
-mainly the sagital and frontal (very little transverse)
|
|
Antetorsion of the femur is about 35-40 degrees at birth and untwists to 12 by adulthood, what if the adult remains in antetorsion
|
-pigeontoed
|
|
what is normal tibial torsion in an adult and how is it measure
|
-18-23 external
-measured by malleolar torsion which is 5 degrees less |
|
if a infant has abnormal tibial torsion due to osseous (not soft tissue) deformity, how can you treat it
|
-it is rigid osseous deformity so you can use serial above the knee casting followed by maintenance with a Ganley splint or D-B bar
|
|
what does a reverse tailors sitting postion manifest in a child
|
-medial femoral torsion (anteversion)
-can cause knock knee |
|
stance phase is the largest part of the gait cycle, what happens here
|
-heel strike and foot hits supinated
-foot flat (pronation is shock absorber due to internal leg rotation) -midstance -heel lift -toe off (resupination as rigid lever due to ext leg rotation) |
|
as the gait progresses from the heel to the ankle to the forefoot what happens to the hip and knee
|
-when the ankle PF when the foot moves from heel contact to midstance the knee and hiip are flexed
-as the ankle starts to PF to toe off, the hip and knee extend to accelerate the WB leg into swing phase |
|
summarize the action of the anterior muscles during gait
|
-the TA, EDL and PT are active at toe off and DF the foot
-remain active during swing -show peak activity at heel strike to deccelerate the foot as it strikes the ground |
|
summarize the action of the posterior muscles during gait
|
-TP, soleus, gastroc, plantaris, FHL, FDL
-fire during contact and terminate during propulsion to acheive heel off |
