FACTORS THAT INCREASE THE MECHANICAL STABILITY OF DORSIFLEXED TALOCRURAL JOINT Dr. Michael P. Gillespie FIGURE 14-20A, B. Factors that increase the mechanical stability of the fully dorsiflexed talocrural joint are shown. A, The increased passive tension in several connective tissues and muscles is demonstrated. B, The trochlear surface of the talus is wider anteriorly than posteriorly (see red line). The path of dorsiflexion places the concave tibiofibular segment of the mortise in contact with the wider anterior dimension of the talus, thereby causing a wedging effect within the talocrural joint.

PASSIVE SUPPORT MECHANISM OF THE MEDIAL LONGITUDINAL ARCH Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
ACCEPTING BODY WEIGHT DURING STANDING Dr. Michael P. Gillespie FIGURE 14-29A, B. Models of the foot show a mechanism of accepting body weight during standing. A, With a normal medial longitudinal arch, body weight is accepted and dissipated primarily through elongation of the plantar fascia, depicted as a red spring. The footprint illustrates the concavity of the normal arch. B, With an abnormally dropped medial longitudinal arch, the overstretched and weakened plantar fascia, depicted as an overstretched red spring, cannot adequately accept or dissipate body weight. As a consequence, various extrinsic and intrinsic muscles are active as a secondary source of support to the arch. The footprint illustrates the dropped arch and loss of a characteristic instep.
