MOB TCD
Superior and Inferior
Tibio-Fibular Joints
• Superior is synovial plane joint
• Inferior is a syndesmosis
• Interosseous tibiofibular
ligament
• Anterior and posterior tibiofibular
ligament
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• The ankle joint is one of the most
common joints to be injured
• The foot is usually in the plantar
flexed and inverted position when
the ankle is most commonly injured
Bröstrom, 1966

MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
•
•
Dorsiflexion and plantar
flexion take place at the
ankle joint
In plantar flexion there is
some side-to-side
movement
Last, 1963
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• Uniaxial, modified synovial
hinge joint
• Close pack
• Dorsiflexion
• Least pack
• Plantarflexion
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Proximal Articular Surface
• Distal surface of the tibia
• Medial malleolus has comma
shaped facet
• Lateral malleolus triangular
facet
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Proximal Articulation
• Inferior transverse tibiofibular ligament
• Deepens it posteriorly
• Passes from the lower margin of the
tibia
• To the malleolar fossa of the fibula
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Proximal Articular Surface
• Proximally the articulation
depends on the integrity of the
inferior tibiofibular joint
• Syndesmosis
MOB TCD
Distal Articular Surface
• The superior surface of the body of
the talus is wider anteriorly
• Convex from before backwards
• Concave from side to side
• Medial comma shaped facet
• Lateral triangular facet
Frazer, 1965
MOB TCD
Capsule
• Is attached just beyond the articular
margin
• Except anterior-inferiorly
• Attached to the neck of the talus
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• The capsule is thin and weak in front
and behind
• It is strengthened on either side by the
collateral ligaments
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Medial (Deltoid) Ligament
• A strong triangular ligament
• Superiorly attached
• The medial malleolus of the
tibia
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Medial Ligament
• The tuberosity of the
navicular
• The edge of the spring
ligament
• The sustentaculum tali
• The body of the talus
Last, 1963
MOB TCD
Medial or Deltoid Ligament
(Superficial)
• Cross two joints
• Anterior tibionavicular pass
to the tuberosity of the
navicular
• The free edge of the spring
ligament
• The middle fibres
• The tibiocalcaneal are attached to
the sustentaculum tali
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Medial or Deltoid Ligament
(Deep)
• The anterior tibiotalar to the
nonarticular part of the
medial surface of the talus
• The posterior tibiotalar to the
medial side of the talus
• The medial tubercle of the
talus
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
Lateral Ligaments of Ankle
• The anterior talofibular
ligament (ATFL)
• The calcaneofibular
ligament (CFL)
• The posterior talofibular
ligament (PTF)
• They radiate like the spokes
of a wheel
Liu & Jason, 1994
MOB TCD
Anterior Talofibular Ligament (ATFL)
•
•
•
•
•
Is part of the capsule
An upper and lower bands
It is cylindrical
6-10 mm long
2 mm thick
Liu & Jason, 1994
MOB TCD
ATFL
• The anterior inferior border of
the fibula runs parallel to the
long axis of the talus when
the ankle is neutral or
dorsiflexion
• More perpendicular to the
talus when the foot is
equinus
MOB TCD
ATFL
• It is the weakest ligament
• Strain increases with
increasing plantar flexion
and inversion
• The AFTL is a primary
stabiliser against inversion
and internal rotation for all
angles of plantar flexion
Liu & Jason, 1994
MOB TCD
Calcaneofibular Ligament (CFL)
• A long rounded 20-25 mm
long, 6-8 mm in diameter
• It contains the most elastic
tissue
• It is attached in front of the
apex of the fibular malleolus
• To a tubercle on the lateral
aspect of the calcaneus
Williams & Warwick, 1980
MOB TCD
CFL
• It is separated from the
capsule by fibro-fatty tissue
• Part of the medial wall of the
peroneal tendon sheath
• Crosses both the ankle and
subtalar joints
MOB TCD
CFL
• The CFL is perpendicular to
the long axis of the talus
• Dorsiflexion and inversion
result in an increased strain
• Talar tilt tests the CFL
MOB TCD
Lateral Ligament
• The angle between the
ATFL and CFL varies
between 100o and 135o
• Increasing the potential
instability of the lateral
ligament
Hamilton, 1994; Peters, 1991
MOB TCD
Ankle Stability
• The ATFL is the main talar
stabiliser and the CFL acts
as a secondary restraint
MOB TCD
ATFL and CFL
• A difference of 10o between
the two ankles is significant
• A talar tilt of more than 10o is
a lateral ligament injury in
99% of cases
• The AFTL is injured in 65%
and combined injuries of the
AFTL and CFL occur in 20%
• The CFL is a major stabiliser
of the subtalar joint
Liu & Jason, 1994
MOB TCD
Posterior Talofibular (PTL)
• The PTL is the strongest part of the
lateral ligament
• It runs almost horizontally from
malleolar fossa to lateral tubercle of
talus
MOB TCD
PTL
• During plantar flexion the posterior
talofibular and the posterior tibio
fibular ligament are edge to edge
• They separate during dorsiflexion
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• The flexor hallucis longus lies
in a grove between the smaller
medial and larger lateral
tubercles
• In 7% the lateral tubercle has a
separate ossification and is
called an os trigonum
MOB TCD
Synovial Membrane
•
•
•
•
Lines the capsule and the non articular area
Covers the neck of talus
The fatty pads inside the capsule
It extends upwards to the interosseous
ligament of the inferior tibiofibular joint
Plastanga et al., 1980
MOB TCD
Blood Supply of Ankle
• Malleolar branches of the anterior
tibial
• Perforating peroneal and posterior
tibial arteries

branches of the deep peroneal

Nerves Related to Ankle Joint
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• In the anatomical position the axis of the
ankle joint is horizontal
• But is set at 20-25o obliquely to the
frontal plane
• Running posteriorly as it passes laterally
Plastanga et al., 1990
MOB TCD
Ankle Joint
• The ankle is most stable in
dorsiflexion, with increasing
plantar flexion there is more
anterior talar translation
(drawer) and talar inversion
(tilt)
