Tarsal Joints 3D

  • Intertarsal Joints                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          
  • Subtalar Joint:
  • * It is a plane synovial joint (part of the talocalcaneonavicular joint) formed between the talus and calcaneus bones.
  • * It allows inversion and eversion of the foot.                                                                                                                                                                                                
  • Talocalcaneonavicular Joint:
  • * It is a ball-and-socket joint (part of the transverse tarsal joint) formed between the head of the talus and the calcaneus and navicular bones.
  • * Spring ligament supports this joint.                                                                                                                                                                                                           
  • Calcaneocuboid Joint:
  • * It is a plane synovial joint (part of the talocalcaneonavicular joint) formed between the talus and calcaneus bones.
  • * It allows inversion and eversion of the foot.                                                                                                                                                                                                
  • Transverse Tarsal (Midtarsal) Joint:
  • * It consists of combined articulations of the talonavicular and the calcaneocuboid joint.
  • * It helps in the inversion and eversion of the foot.                                                                                                                                                                                      
  • Tarsometatarsal Joints:
  • * These are plane synovial joints that strengthen the transverse arch.
  • * These are united by articular capsules and are reinforced by the plantar, dorsal, and interosseous ligaments.

 

  • Metatarsophalangeal Joints:
  • * These are ellipsoid synovial joints joined by articular capsules and reinforced by the plantar and collateral ligaments.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
  • Interphalangeal Joints:
  • * These are hinge-type synovial joints enclosed by articular capsules and reinforced by the plantar and collateral ligaments.
