Ankle/Foot Review

Ligaments

100

This is the motion limited by a deltoid ligament limit and its location

What is eversion?

Medial side of ankle, inferior to malleolus

200

This is the ligament that is most commonly sprained in the ankle.

Anterior Talofibular

300

These are the bones that are connected by the deltoid ligment.

Tibia > Navicular 

Tibia> Calcaneal 

Tibia>Talas

400

List the 3 LCL ligaments.

Anterior Talofibular Ligament 

Calcaneofibular ligament 

Posterior Talofibular Ligmanet

500

This ligament limits excessive inversion of the

Lateral collateral ligament

Bones/Nerves

100

This phalange only has 1 interphalangeal joint

Hallux

200

These are the nerves that most likely innervate the nerves that dorsiflex the foot

Deep Fibular Nerve

300

These bones make up the midfoot

navicular 

Medial, Intermediate and lateral cuneiform

Cuboid

400

These bones articulate to form the 5 tarsometatarsal joints.

Medial Cuneiform and 1st metatarsal 

Intermediate cuneiform and 2nd metatarsal 

lateral cunefiorm and the 3rd metatarsal 

Cuboid and 4th metatarsal 

cuboid and 5th metatarsal

500

These are the bones that are banded together to form the medial longtitudinal arch of the foot

Calcaneus and the proximal phalanges

Kinematics/muscles

100

There are two intrinsic muscles on the dorsal foot. What are they?

Extensor Digitorum Breves (extension of first 4 toes)

Dorsal Interossei (abduction of toes 2-4)

200

These extrensic muscle act as a direct agonist of the Tibialis Anterior

Fibularis brevis 

Fibularis longus

300

List the extrinsic muscles that plantar flex and invert the foot

Tibialis posterior

Flexor Digitorum Longus

Flexor hallucis longus 

Achilles tendon (gastrocnemius, plantaris, soleus)

400

This muscle has the ability to plantar flex the foot and flex the knee

Gastrocnemius

500

In the talocural joint the concavity formed by the tibia and fibular is often referred to as ....

The mortise

kinematics

100

The plane of motion for inversion and eversion

Frontal plane about an anterior-posterior axis

200

This proximal joint allows for motion in the horizontal and frontal plane.

Subtalar joint

Inversion/Eversion

Abduction Adduction

300

What are the kinematics of the ankle when walking? (Referring to the roll and slide)

Roll and slide are in the same direction

DF- anterior 

PF - posterior

400

This joint allow for the purest form pronation and supination. Allowing three degrees of freedom

Transverse tarsal joint

500

This joint allows for 20 degrees of dorsiflexion and 60 degrees of plantar flexion

Talocrural Joint

Pick at your own risk

100

the position of the foot when the talocural joint is the least stable

Full plantar flexion; also called loose packed

200

These bones make up the malleolus

Distal ends of the tibia and fibula

300

This describes gate cycle

Two successive heel contacts of the SAME leg while walking

400

A conditon that occurs when a person has an excessively fallen or dropped medial longitudinal arch

pes planus

500

Name the articulations between the subtalar, talocural, and the transverse tarsals

- talocural- Trochlea of the talus articulates with the concavity of the distal tibial and fibula

- Subtalar - three inferior facets of the talus match with the superior facets of the calcaneus 

-Transverse tarsal - two articulations; one with the talonavicular joint and calcaneocuboid joint
