Question
Answer
purpose of the groove of the cuboid   peroneus/fibularis longus runs along this grove to the plantar aspect of the 1st MT and medial cuneiforms  
🗑
location of the groove for the flexor hallucis longus (FHL)   1. on the medial aspect of the calcaneus, posterior the sustentaculum tali  
🗑
location and purpose of the sesamoid bones   located on the plantar aspect of the 1st MT head. purpose to reduce the pressure on the FHL  
🗑
where does the talus, tibia and fibula articulate?   trochlear surface of the anterior portion of the talus  
🗑
where is the peroneal/fibular trochlea located?   on the lateral aspect of the calcaneus posterior calcaneocuboid jt  
🗑
what groove is located under the peroneal/fibular trochlea?   groove for the peroneus/fibularis longus  
🗑
What is the fibular notch?   It is a notch on the lateral, distal portion of the tibia where the fibula fits in with the tibia and articulates.  
🗑
Where is the groove for the FHL on the tibia?   on the medial, distal aspect of the tibia. more medial the groove for the posterior tibialis  
🗑
Where is the groove for the semimebranosus?   on the medial, proximal portion of the tibia, the groove is located below the medial tibial plateau  
🗑
Where is the groove for the tibialis posterior/FDL?   on the distal portion of the tibia, just lateral of the groove for the FHL  
🗑
What is the importance of the Gerdy's Tuberacle and where is it located?   located on the anterior, lateral condyle. It is the distal attachment of the Iliotibial Band (IT Band).  
🗑

🗑
What is the importance and where is the tibial tuberosity?   It is located on the anterior portion of the tibia, inferior the condyles (the neck). the patella tendon distally attaches to the tuberosity  
🗑
Where is the apex (styloid process) of the fibula and what attaches to it?   most superior portion of the fibula. the LCL and biceps femoris attach to this process.  
🗑
Where is the groove for the peroneals on the fibula?   just lateral of the malleolus fossa on the distal portion of the fibula.  
🗑
What is the name of the articulation between the calcaneus and talus?   subtalar jt.  
🗑
What is the name of the articulation between the calcaneus, talus, and navicular?   Talocalcaneonavicular jt  
🗑
What bones articulate in the tarsometatarsal jt?   the tarsal bones articulate with the metatarsal bones  
🗑
What two sets of articulation are in the transverse tarsal jt?   calcaneocuboid and talonavicular jts  
🗑
