Anatomy The tibionavicular ligament attaches from above the medial malleolus of the tibia to in front of the navicular tuberosity, down to the calcaeonavicular ligament. Functions Medial support and stability to the ankle joint. Clinical A very strong ligament. It gets damaged when an eversion force is put on the ankle, placing the ankle into

Anatomy Attaches from above the medial malleolus on the anterior surface of the tibia, to the medial surface of the talus. It lies deep to the tibionavicular and tibiocalcaneal parts of the deltoid ligament. Functions Medial support and stability to the ankle joint. Clinical A very strong ligament. It gets damaged when an eversion force

Anatomy Origin: Anterior fibres from lateral third of the clavicle. Lateral/middle fibres from the acromion. Posterior fibres from the spine of the scapula. Insertion: Deltoid tuberosity of the humerus. Key Relations: Its origin mirrors the insertion of trapezius. Functions -Powerful abductor of the arm after 15°.* -Anterior fibres flexes and medially rotates the arm at

Anatomy There are four deep transverse metatarsal ligaments which link all the metatarsals. They attach on the dorsal surface of the head of the metatarsals from one to two, two to three, three to four and four to five. The ligament also blends with the planter ligaments of the adjacent metatarsophalangeal joints. Functions They enable
