Q

What nerve runs through the tarsal tunnel?

Study These Flashcards
A

Posterior tibial nerve

18
Q

Which nerve on the anterior aspect of the foot is often compressed at the extensor retinaculum?

Study These Flashcards
A

Deep peroneal nerve

19
Q

Components of the arches of the foot

Study These Flashcards
A
  • keystone
  • posterior pillar
  • anterior pillar
  • tie rod
20
Q

Where is the keystone in the arch of the foot?

Study These Flashcards
A

At the peak of the arch

21
Q

Medial longitudinal arch:

What is the keystone?

22
Q

Medial longitudinal arch:

What is the posterior pillar?

23
Q

Medial longitudinal arch:

What is the anterior pillar?

Study These Flashcards
A
  • sesamoids

- heads of metatarsals 1-3

24
Q

Medial longitudinal arch:

What is the tie rod?

Study These Flashcards
A

Plantar fascia

25
Why do clinicians commonly treat medial arch pain pathology passively?
High degree of passive stability
26
Recent evidence suggest that active structures play a large role in medial arch support and clinicians are encouraged to focus on what treatment modalities?
Both intrinsic and extrinsic muscle strengthening
27
Medial arch: extrinsic strengthening | Which muscles?
Posterior tibialis | Triceps surae
28
Lateral longitudinal arch: | What is the keystone?
Cuboid
29
Lateral longitudinal arch: | What is the posterior pillar?
Calcaneus
30
Lateral longitudinal arch: | What is the anterior pillar?
Heads of metatarsals 4-5
31
Lateral longitudinal arch: | What is the tie rod?
Plantar fascia
32
Transverse arch: | What is the keystone?
Middle cuneiform
33
Transverse arch: | What is the lateral pillar?
Cuboid
34
Transverse arch: | What is the medial pillar?
Medial cuneiform
35
Transverse arch: | What is the tie rod?
Peroneus longus tendon
36
Anterior compartment: which muscle group
Dorsiflexors
37
Lateral compartment: which muscle groups
Pronators
38
Deep posterior compartment: which muscle groups?
Subtalar supinators | Also thought to raise medial arch
39
anterior compartment: what are the ankle dorsiflexors?
- tibialis anterior - EHL - EDL - peroneus tertius
40
Intrinsic muscles of the feet serve what functions?
- IP joint flexion - arch support - propulsion
41
Lateral compartment: what are the muscles that perform pronation?
- peroneus longus | - peroneus brevis
42
Deep posterior compartment: which muscles are the subtalar supinators (also thought to raise medial arch)?
- FDL - FHL - posterior tibialis
