Currently browsing : Foot And Ankle

The human foot combines mechanical complexity and structural strength. The ankle serves as foundation, shock absorber, and propulsion engine. The foot can sustain enormous pressure (several tons over the course of a one-mile run) and provides flexibility and resiliency.

The ankle joint is formed where the foot and the leg meet. The ankle, or talocrural joint, is a synovial hinge joint that connects the distal ends of the tibia and fibula in the lower limb with the proximal end of the talus bone in the foot.

The articulation between the tibia and the talus bears more weight than between the smaller fibula and the talus.

The term “ankle” is used to describe structures in the region of the ankle joint proper.
