  1. Exam of the Lower Extremities From A Practical Guide to Clinical Medicine University of California, San Diego • FOOT • IN 30 QUESTIONS • Kaan Yücel M.D., Ph.D.

  2. INTRODUCTION TO FOOT Region of the lower limb distaltoankle joint Subdivided into Ankle Metatarsus Digits Superior surface (dorsum of foot) Inferior surface (sole)

  3. INTRODUCTION TO FOOT • Body's point of contact with the ground • Provides a stable platform for upright stance. • Supports the body weight and provides leverage for walking and running. • Unique -constructed in the form of arches, adapt its shape to unevensurfaces. • Serves as a resilient spring to absorb shocks, such as in jumping.

  4. SKIN & SUBCUTANEOUS TISSUE • IN 10 QUESTIONS

  5. 1…skin of the foot Skin of the dorsum of the foot thinner and less sensitive than that of the sole The subcutaneous tissue is loose deep to the dorsal skin Edema most marked on the dorsal skin especially anterior to and around the medial malleolus Entire sole is sensitive (“ticklish”), especially the thinner-skinned area underlying the arch of the foot. Neurosci Res. 2010 Dec;68(4):285-9. Neurogenesis in the dentate gyrus of the rat hippocampus enhanced by tickling stimulation with positive emotion. Ticklish? gargalesis

  6. 2. Deep fascia of the foot & Plantar fascia Thin where it is continuous proximally with the inferior extensor retinaculum. Over the lateral and posterior aspects of the footcontinuous with the plantar fascia, the deep fascia of the sole. Plantar fascia holds the parts of the foot together, helps protect the sole from injury, and helps support the longitudinal arches of the foot.

  7. 3. Compartments by the deep fascia Midfoot and forefoot Medial compartment of the sole Central compartment of the sole Lateral compartment of the sole Forefoot 4th compartment interosseous compartment of the foot Dorsal compartment of the foot 5th compartment between dorsal fascia of the foot & tarsal bones & dorsal interosseous fascia of the midfoot and forefoot http://home.comcast.net/~wnor/soleoffoot.htm Transverse section of the foot: 1, lateral compartment; 2, central compartment; 3, medial compartment; 4, interosseous compartment. Arrows indicate the high-pressure areas that often lead to foot ulceration.

  8. 4. Tarsal tunnel • Formed on the posteromedial side of the ankle by: • A depression formed by • Medial malleolus of tibia Medial &posterior surfaces of talus • Inferior surface of sustentaculum tali Medial surface of calcaneus • Overlying flexor retinaculum • Contents from ant. to post. • (Tom Dick ANdHarry) • Tibialis posterior tendon • Flexor digitorumlongus tendon • Posterior tibial artery • Tibial nerve • Flexor hallucislongus tendon

  9. 5. Flexor retinaculum Attaches above to medial malleolus below to calcaneus 2 compartments on the posterior surface of medial malleolus for tibialis posterior& flexor digitorum longus tendons Laterally posterior tibial artery ,veins& tibial nerve through tarsal tunnel into sole of foot Lateral to tibial nerve tendon of flexor hallucis longus Pulse of posterior tibial artery through flexor retinaculum midway between medial malleolus and calcaneus

  10. 6. Extensor retinacula Prevent tendon bowing during extension of the foot and toes Superior extensor retinaculum Superior to the ankle Attached to anterior borders of the fibula & tibia Inferior retinaculum Y-shaped Attached to lateral side of calcaneus Extensor digitorum longus & fibularis tertius tendons Medially Dorsalis pedis artery Extensor hallucis longus tendon tibialis anterior tendon pass under extensor retinacula

  11. 7. Fibular (Peroneal) retinacula Bind the tendons of fibularis longus &fibularis brevis to lateral side of the foot Superior fibular retinaculum Between lateral malleolus & calcaneus Inferior fibular retinaculum Attaches to lateral surface of calcaneus around fibular trochlea

  12. 8. Plantar aponeurosis A thickening of deep fascia in the sole of thefoot A thick centralpart Weaker medial and lateralparts Tougher, denser, andelongatedthanpalmaraponeurosis Anchored to the medial process of calcanealtuberosity Supports the longitudinal arch of the foot & protects deeper structures in the sole

  13. 9. Fibrous sheaths of toes Flexor digitorum longus, flexor digitorum brevis, & flexor hallucis longustendons enter fibrous digital sheaths on plantar aspect of digits. Formed by fibrous arches & cruciate (cross-shaped) ligaments Hold the tendons to the bony plane and prevent tendon bowing when the toes are flexed.

  14. 10. Extensor hoods Extensor digitorum longus, extensor digitorum brevis, and extensor hallucis longusexpand over the proximal phalanges to form complex dorsal digital expansions ("extensor hoods"). Manyof the intrinsic muscles of the foot insert here. Thisallows the forces from these muscles to be distributed over the toes to cause flexion of the metatarsophalangeal joints while at the same time extending the interphalangeal joints.

  15. MUSCLES OF THE FOOT • IN 4 QUESTIONS

  16. 20 individual muscles of thefoot • 14 located on the plantaraspect • 2 on the dorsalaspect • 4 intermediate in position • Plantar muscles function primarily as a group during the support phase of stance, maintaining the arches of the foot • Few delicate functionscomparedtohandmuscles • Concerned with supporting the arches of thefoot

  17. Muscles in the dorsum Extensor digitorum brevis Attached to a roughened area on the superolateral surface of the calcaneus lateral to the tarsal sinus Extensor hallucis brevis The part of the muscle associated with the great toe Deepfibularnerve

  18. Muscles in the sole Organized into four layers From superficial to deep or plantar to dorsal First layer Medial to lateral Abductor hallucis Flexor digitorum brevisAbductor digiti minimi Second layer Quadratus plantae Lumbrical muscles Third layer Flexor hallucis brevis Adductor hallucis Flexor digiti minimi brevis Fourth layer Dorsal & plantar interossei

  28. NERVES OF THE FOOT • IN 8 QUESTIONS

  29. Tibial nerve • Deep fibular nerve • Superficial fibular nerve • Sural nerve • Saphenous nerve • Tibial nerve • All intrinsic muscles of the foot except for the extensor digitorum brevis, innervated by the deep fibular nerve • Deep fibular nerve often also contributes to innervation of the first and second dorsal interossei.
