Talus Tibia Fibula All of these bones make-up the ankle mortis Anatomy of the Ankle
Plantar Flexion Dorsi-flexion Inversion Eversion Motions of the Ankle
Ligaments of the Ankle • Lateral • Anterior talofibular ligament • Calcaneofibular ligament • Posterior talofibular ligament • Medial • Deltoid ligament-strongest of the ankle
Muscles of the Ankle • Dorsi-flexors (Anterior Leg) • Tibialis-anterior • Extensor Hallucis Longus • Extensor Digitorum Longus • Peroneus Tertius
Muscles of the Ankle • Plantar-Flexors (posterior leg) • Gastrocnemius • Soleus • Flexor Hallucis Longus* • Flexor Digitorum Longus* • Tibialis Posterior* *These also act as invertors
Evertors (lateral leg) Peroneus Longus Peroneus Brevis Muscles of the Ankle
Lateral Ankle SprainsClassifications • Mild (1st) • Out 3-7 days, involves the ATF and possibly the CF:Localized tenderness over ligament, pain when ligament is stretched, no loss of function or instability, mild swelling, can weight bear and walk w/o much pain. • Moderate (2nd) • Out 10-21 days, involves the ATF,CF, PTF some tearing but not complete (ATF could be complete) Tenderness over all the ligaments, swelling, pain with motion, non weight bearing
Lateral Ankle SprainsClassifications • Severe • Out 6-8 weeks, usually requires surgery ATF and Anterior Tibiofibular ligament ruptured. Severe pain and spasm, complete loss of function
Potts Fracture Fracture of the Fibula
Unusual but does occur to the deltoid ligament. Medial Ankle Sprains
Other Tidbits • The anterior Tibiofibular ligament is also known as the syndesmosis ligament. • An injury like this is typically called a high ankle sprain. • Return to play criteria varies athlete to athlete
History What happened (recreate mechanism) Have you hurt it before Did you hear any sounds Have you had previous surgery HOPS for the Ankle
HOPS for the Ankle • Observation • Swelling • Discoloration • How did they walk in • Scars • Deformity
Palpation Where does it hurt What does pain feel like Palpate all ligaments Palpate the bony structures Look for point tenderness Go through AROM and PROM Determine structures injured HOPS for the Ankle
HOPS for the Ankle • Stress or Special Tests • Looking for functionality of the joint and disruption of structure and function • Talar Tilt • Anterior Drawer • Eversion Test
