Humans have 26 bones in each foot that are classified into three groups – tarsals, metatarsals, and phalanges. These bones give structure to the foot and allow for all foot movements like flexing the toes and ankle, walking, and running. The foot can be divided into three regions, the hindfoot, midfoot, and forefoot.
The weight of the body is transmitted to the talus from the tibia. Then it is transmitted posteriorly to the calcaneal tubercle and anteriorly to the heads of the 1st-5th metatarsals. The cuneiforms and the bases of the metatarsals together form the transverse arch. Its uppermost point is the medial cuneiform.
Structure of foot Adaption to movements - bipedial movement - thumb adducted, „paralleled” - sustains - massive talus and calcaneus - at child flat - position of sustentaculum tali
The bones (tibia and fibula) together with the interosseous membrane and fasciae divide the leg into three separate com-partments: anterolateral, lateral and posterior. They contain the so-called extrinsic foot muscles. Each compartment has its own blood supply and innervation.
3 Νοε 2023 · Ankle anatomy. The ankle joint, also known as the talocrural joint, allows dorsiflexion and plantar flexion of the foot. It is made up of three joints: upper ankle joint (tibiotarsal), talocalcaneonavicular, and subtalar joints. The last two together are called the lower ankle joint.
Bones, ligaments, joints. The bony frame includes 28 bones, which are from the rear to the forefoot: talus, calcaneus, navicular, cuboid, 3 cuneiforms, 5 metatarsals,s proximal, 4 middle and 5 distal phalanges, one lateral and one medial sesamoid. Accessory bones may be found. (figs. 1.1-1.4).
The ankle consists of three bones attached by muscles, tendons, and ligaments that connect the foot to the leg. In the lower leg are two bones called the tibia (shin bone) and the fibula. These bones articulate (connect) to the Talus or ankle bone at the tibiotalar joint (ankle joint) allowing the foot to move up and down.
