8 lut 2019 · The medial ligament (or deltoid ligament) is attached to the medial malleolus (a bony prominence projecting from the medial aspect of the distal tibia). It consists of four ligaments, which fan out from the malleolus, attaching to the talus, calcaneus and navicular bones.
The deltoid ligament is a fan shaped band of connective tissue on the medial side of the ankle (Figure 11). It runs from the medial malleolus down into the talus and calcaneus. The deeper branch of the ligament is securely fastened in the talus, while the more superficial, broader aspect runs into the calcaneus.
23 maj 2023 · The main stabilizing ligament medially is the deltoid ligament, and laterally the ankle has stabilization from three separate ligaments, the anterior and posterior talofibular ligaments, and the calcaneofibular ligament.
3 lis 2023 · The upper ankle joint is formed by the inferior surfaces of tibia and fibula, and the superior surface of talus. The lower ankle joint is formed by the talus, calcaneus, and navicular bone. The joint is supported by a set of ankle ligaments: the medial collateral or deltoid ligament, and lateral collateral ligament.
21 sie 2021 · The medial ankle joint is stabilized by the medial ligamentous complex, also referred to as the deltoid ligamentous complex, which connects the medial malleolus to the navicular, talus, and calcaneus. The deltoid ligamentous complex functions to limit lateral, anterior, and posterior talar translation and prevents talar abduction.
Medial ligament. The deltoid ligament, consists of four ligaments that form a triangle connecting the tibia to the navicular, the calcaneus, and the talus. It stabilises the ankle joint during eversion of the foot and prevents subluxation of the ankle joint. [3]
