Bones of foot, plantar view. A. Muscle attachments.

First layer of muscles of sole of foot, digital nerves and arteries.

Ligaments of sole of foot - II, plantar view. A. Deep dissection.

Posterior view of the somatic nervous system, superimposed on outline of body.

Illustration of the foot with metatarsus adductus deformity; note medial misalignment of foot.

Anterior view of a child's two feet, the left of which is clubbed; ankle is plantar flexed, foot is inverted, anterior half of foot is directed toward midline.

Bony landmarks of leg and foot. Foot shown in plantar view, dorsal view, and medial view.

Bones of foot, plantar view. B. Weight-bearing areas. The weight of the body is transmitted to the talus from the tibia to the fibula; it is then transmitted to the tuberosity of the calcaneus, the heads of the second to the fifth metatarsals, and the sesa

Joints of inversion and eversion. C. Posterior part of foot with talus removed, superolateral view. Note the posterior, middle, and anterior calcaneus facets, the spring ligament, and the facet on the navicular constitute the socket for the talus.

Scheme of motor distribution of the tibial nerve in the posterior crural compartment and in the sole of the foot.

Illustration of the bones in clubfoot deformity; note tarsal navicular moved medial to talus, talus is forced laterally, which in turn has pushed calcaneus into varus and equinus.

Dissection of posterior leg, deep compartment, posterior view. A. Superficial dissection. The tendo calcaneus (Achilles tendon) is divided and the gastrocnemius muscle and a horseshoe-shaped section of the soleus muscle are removed.
