Cruciate ligaments

Where does the anterior cruciate ligament attach?

anterior displacement of femur

With the knee flexed (CKC), the PCL prevents

tibia from being pulled posteriorly

This ankle joint ligament runs from the lateral malleolus to the lateral surface of the talus

Anterior talofibular ligament

This ankle joint ligament runs from the lateral malleolus to the posterior tubercle of the talus

Posterior talofibular ligament

What nerve supplies the ankle joint

Deep peroneal and tibial nerves

Movements that take place at the tarsal joints

Inversion and eversion

Movements that take place at the ankle joint

Dorsiflexion and Plantar flexion
