Anatomy4
- In human anatomy, the subtalar joint, also known as the talocalcaneal joint, is a joint of the foot. (wikipedia.org)
- In addition to the general anatomy of the ankle, note the biomechanical function of each component in stabilizing the joint. (medscape.com)
- Axis and planes of body is imaginary concept to study human anatomy & joint movement. (leburnoutsesoigne.com)
- Especially with the problem that needs surgery, comprehensive knowledge of anatomy is required to ensure that the treatment is carried out properly and without harming any structure or joint of the ankle. (physiosuggest.com)
Flexion1
- The shoulder joint is the most mobile joint in the human body with a wide range of motion including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, external rotation, internal rotation and a range of motion of 360 degrees. (ortoped.bg)
Articular4
- Arthroscopically assisted open reduction and internal fixation (AORIF) provides intra-articular visualization during surgery, which allows for immediate identification of OCD's, removal of loose bodies, chondroplasty, and/or microfracture, as well as confirmation of successful reduction and fixation of the fractured joint during surgery. (hipfootankle.com)
- It is a fibrous connective tissue which forms a band that seals the joint space, provides passive and active stability and may even form articular surfaces for the joint. (physio-pedia.com)
- The superior border of the joint = the tibia's inferior articular surface and the talus's superior margin. (physio-pedia.com)
- The shape is classically defined as a crescentic lucency paralleling a joint when found articular [3]. (faoj.org)
Bones5
- A joint is a part of a body where two or more bones meet. (footproadvice.com)
- The two bones together form the shoulder joint, the main articulation of the shoulder joint. (ortoped.bg)
- Each toe has 3 phalange bones and 2 joints, while the big toe contains two phalange bones, two joints, and two tiny, round sesamoid bones that enable the toe to move up and down. (ftlauderdaleortho.com)
- It is one of the major bones forming the ankle joint. (lfaclinic.co.uk)
- Figure 1 shows the bones of the ankle joint [3, 4] . (ehealthhall.com)
Radiograph1
Computed Tomography2
- In this work, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scans are utilized to inform the design of joints of similar size and function to the biological counterparts. (asme.org)
- On imaging modalities such as computed tomography (CT) where it is most often visualized, it appears as a dark radiolucent pattern that can be shaped anywhere between a singular, linear bubble to confluence of bubbles within the confines of a joint space [2]. (faoj.org)
Rotation3
- The centre of rotation of the subtalar joint is thought to be in the region of the middle facet. (wikipedia.org)
- Subtalar joint motion is complex because the axis of rotation is at an angle. (physio-pedia.com)
- The rotation axes of the foot joints are perpendicular to the cardinal planes. (physio-pedia.com)
Loose bodies1
- If loose bodies undergo ossification, they may be visible in the joint space. (medscape.com)
Anterior1
- The anterior segment of the cavity corresponds to a synovial recess communicating with the ankle joint through the linear opening. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
Symptoms4
- Debilitating nature of symptoms, even with optimal medical treatment, warranted fusion of the subtalar joint. (faoj.org)
- At one-year follow up, the joint remained solidly fused both clinically and radiologically, and the symptoms had resolved completely. (faoj.org)
- If these jar between the surfaces of the joint they may cause symptoms of instability or pain. (orthosurgeonujjwal.com)
- Additionally, we present a case example of the vacuum phenomenon in the ankle joint of a 50-year old patient presenting with degenerative ankle joint pain symptoms. (faoj.org)
Articulates2
- The talus articulates with the navicular at the subtalar joint. (learnsurgeryonline.com)
- It forms two joints: the acromioclavicular joint, where it articulates with the acromion, and the sternoclavicular joint, where it articulates with the sternum. (ortoped.bg)
Impingement1
- Misaligned joints may cause synovial impingement, with minimal if any heat and swelling (osteoarthritic synovitis). (msdmanuals.com)
Interphalangeal2
- The joints between the phalanges are called interphalangeal (IP) joints and those between the metatarsals and phalanges are called metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joints. (lfaclinic.co.uk)
- The closed pack position for interphalangeal joints is at full extension. (physio-pedia.com)
