Bony anatomy[edit | edit source]
The subtalar joint also named the talocalcaneal joint, is articulating between two tarsal bones the talus and calcaneus bones. There are three facets on each of the talus and calcaneus. The posterior talocalcaneal articulation represents the largest component of the subtalar joint.[1]
Function and Biomechanics of Subtalar joint[edit | edit source]
The Subtalar joint is necessary for:
- The function of the foot and the ankle and gait.[2]
- Transmission of rotations from the leg and the ankle to the foot.[3]
- Shock absorption during the early stance phase.[3]
The Subtalar joint movements are inversion-eversion[4] and supination-pronation (three-dimensional motions)[5]. Pronation combines dorsiflexion, abduction, and eversion, and supination combines plantarflexion, adduction, and inversion[6].
