30 Οκτ 2023 · The main action of the ankle joint is to allow dorsiflexion and plantar flexion of the foot, as well as some degree of pronation and supination with subtalar and midtarsal joints. The joint also acts as a shock absorber as the heel strikes the ground during the first phases of gait.
8 Φεβ 2019 · The ankle joint is a hinge type joint, with movement permitted in one plane. Thus, plantarflexion and dorsiflexion are the main movements that occur at the ankle joint. Eversion and inversion are produced at the other joints of the foot, such as the subtalar joint.
The ankle joint is important during ambulation because it adapts to the surface on which one walks. The movements that occur at the ankle joint are plantar flexion, dorsiflexion, inversion, and eversion. The muscles of the leg divide into anterior, posterior, and lateral compartments. Articulating Surfaces [edit | edit source] Trochlea of Talus
In the limbs, flexion decreases the angle between the bones (bending of the joint), while extension increases the angle and straightens the joint. For the upper limb, all anterior motions are flexion and all posterior motions are extension.
25 Σεπ 2024 · Flexion and extension are movements that take place within the sagittal plane and involve anterior or posterior movements of the trunk or limbs. In the limbs, flexion decreases the angle between the bones (bending of the joint), while extension increases the angle and straightens the joint.
26 Σεπ 2021 · Introduction. The ankle joint is a synovial hinge joint that connects the lower leg with the foot. It is made up of three articulating points: the distal end of the tibia, the distal end of the fibula, and the talus of the foot. The primary movements of the ankle joint include plantarflexion and dorsiflexion, with limited inversion and eversion.
Introduction. Understanding the anatomy of the ankle is essential for the diagnosis and treatment of common injuries. Chronic ankle pain, acute and chronic sprains, fractures, tears and inflammation may result from routine daily activities or professional and recreational sports.
