The top of the talus is connected to the two long bones of the lower leg (tibia and fibula), forming a hinge that allows the foot to move up and down. The heel bone (calcaneus) is the largest bone in the foot. It joins the talus to form the subtalar joint. The bottom of the heel bone is cushioned by a layer of fat. The foot and ankle contain:
A cost-efficient resource that makes learning the Foot & Ankle anatomy enjoyable. Includes labelled illustrations, concept maps and recall questions for a comprehensive revision session.
List and describe the types of bones in the foot. 2. List and describe the types of joints in the foot. 3. What is os trigonum and why is it significant? What structures are involved? 1. Short Bones- Small, cubical shaped, solid bones that usually have a proportionally large. articular surface in order to articulate with more than one bone. 2.
There are a variety of anatomical structures that make up the anatomy of the foot and ankle (Figure 1) including bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, and nerves. These will be reviewed in the sections of this chapter.
Visit the interactive foot to learn the bones of the human foot. You, the teacher, or the student, if able, will write the bone labels in colored pencils (or use crayons to draw a box around the name). The child will then color the bone with the same color as the label. Simply have the older ones fill in the boxes!
The top of the foot is called the dorsum of the foot. In anatomy, the term “dorsal” refers to things that are on the top, such as a “dorsal” fin on a shark. The top bone on the foot is called the talus, and about 70% of it is covered with joint cartilage called hyaline cartilage.
