| FOOT | 26 BONES | ||||
| 14 PHALANGES | BONES OF TOE | ||||
| 5 METATRSALS | BONES OF INSTEP | ||||
| 7 TARSALS | BONES OF ANKLE | ||||
| WALKING, SUPPORTING BODY WEIGHT | THINGS FOOT DOES | ||||
| FOREFOOT | METATARSALS AND TOES | ||||
| midfoot | 5 tarsals | ||||
| hindfoot | talus and calcaneous | ||||
| midfoot | cuniforms, navicular, cuboid | ||||
| longitudinal and tranverse arches | shock absorber that distributes body weight in all directions | ||||
| superior side of foot | dorsum | ||||
| inferior side of foot | plantar surface | ||||
| big (great) toe | medial toe only two phalanx distal and proximal NO MIDDLE | ||||
| metatarsals | body and two ends base and head, FIVE HEADS FORM BASE OF FOOT | ||||
| 1st metatrsal | shortest and thickest | ||||
| 2nd metatrsal | longest | ||||
| base of 5th metatrsal | prominent tuberosity common site for fractures | ||||
| 7 tarsals in foot | Calcaneuos,talus, navicular,cuboid, medial cuneiform,intermediate cuneiform, lateral cuneiform. | ||||
| begining at the medial side of the foot the cuneiforms are described as | medial, intermediate, lateral. | ||||
| the calcaneous | largest and strongest tarsal (os Calsis) | ||||
| calcaneous angle | 30 degrees | ||||
| posterior and inferior parts of the calcaneous attach to | the achilles tendon | ||||
| the talus | second largestr tarsal bone | ||||
| talus | articulates with four bones( tibia, fibula, calcaneous, and navicular. | ||||
| cuboid | lateral side3 of the foot between calcaneous and 4th and 5th metatrsals | ||||
| navicular | between talus and three cuneiforms | ||||
| cuniforms | central and medial aspect of the foot between the navicular , first second and third metatarsals | ||||
| medial cuneiform | largest | ||||
| the intermediadte cunieform | smal,est | ||||
| 7 tarsal pneumonic | CHUBBY ( calcaneous) TWISTED (Talus) Never (Navicular) Could (cuboid) CHA (Cunieform-medial) CHA ( cunieform -intermediate) CHA (cunieform-lateral) | ||||
| sesamoid bones | beneath the head of the first metatarsal embeded w/in the tendons (common site of fracture) | ||||
| Leg | tibia and fibula | ||||
| tibia | second largest bone in body medial side weight bearing bone | ||||
| fibula | lateral side of leg bears no weight | ||||
| tbia | makes up most of the mortise and articulates with the talus | ||||
| femur | longest, strongestb and heaviest bone in body | ||||
| when femur is vertical | the medial condyle is lower than the lateral | ||||
| becasue the lateral epicondyle on the femur is lower | the central ray is angled 5m to 7 degress cephalaud to open the joint | ||||
| the superior portion of the femur articulates with | the acetabulum of thehip joint | ||||
| patella | knee cap |
