Primary functions include
- Shock absorption
- Adaptation (stance phase)
- Stability
- Ankle strategy
- Rigid Lever
- Torque distribution
- Windlass Mechanism
Arches of the Foot
- Formed by three primary factors
- Articulation between tarsal and metatarsal
bones - Inert Ligamentous support (aponeurosis and
plantar ligaments) - Dynamic Muscle support
- Medial Longitudinal
- Lateral Longitudinal
- Transverse
Arch Dynamic Stability
Provided By:
- Medial – Post Tib*, EHL, Tib Ant, FDL, FHL,
plantar fascia, boney congruency - Lateral – fibularis brevis/longus, plantar fascia,
boney congruency - Transverse – foot intrinsics, Post Tib, Flexor
digitorum
Joints of the Foot/Ankle
- Distal Tibiofibular joint
- Talocrural joint
- Subtalar joint
- Midtarsal joints
- Metatarsophalangeal joints
Ligamentous Stability
- Lateral Collateral Ligaments
- Anterior and posterior talofibular ligaments
- Calcaneofibular ligaments
- Medial Collateral Ligaments
- Deltoid ligament
- Distal TibioFibular Ligaments
- Anterior and posterior tibiofibular ligament
- Interosseous tibiofibular ligament
Muscular Contribution
- Foot intrinsics- Review
- Muscles starting and ending in the foot
- Foot extrinsics – Review
- Muscles originating in the distal limb (tib/fib) and tendon insertion in the foot
Additional structures to assess
- Plantar Fascia
- Windlass mechanism
- Has properties similar to a tendon
- Bursa
- Retrocalcaneal Bursa
- Nerves
- Medial/lateral dorsal cutaneous – branches
from? - Medial/lateral plantar nerve – branches
from?
