Study Notes

Planes of Motion

Equinus deformity occurs in the sagittal plane
Calcaneus occurs in the frontal plane
The horizontal axis of the knee joint is at the intersection of the transverse and sagittal planes
The plane of motion of the knee joint is the frontal plane
Hip joint motions occur in the frontal plane

Femur and Hip Joint

Angle of femoral inclination at birth: 30-40°, by age 4: 10-15°
Femoral torsion or femoral declination at birth: 30-40°, by age 4: 10-15°
If the angle of femoral declination is less than 10 degrees, it is called retroversion, and the position is internal rotation
Gait of a hip that has not reduced to 10 degrees of external motion is abnormal

Tibia and Knee Joint

Tibial ontogeny occurs in the transverse plane
Bones involved in the knee joint: femur, tibia, and patella
Normal ranges of motion of the knee:
- Flexion: 0-140°
- Extension: 0-10°
- Abduction: 0-10°
Normal degree of tibial torsion at birth: 30-40°, by age 4: 10-15°
Normal measurement for malleolar torsion: 20-30°

Ankle and Subtalar Joints

Bones involved in the ankle joint: tibia, fibula, and talus
Movements in the ankle joint:
- Dorsiflexion: 10-20°
- Plantarflexion: 40-50°
Location of the ankle joint axis of motion: medial to the medial malleolus
Direction of motion of the axis of motion of the ankle joint: anteromedial
Minimum ROM needed for movement in the ankle joint: 20-30°
Bones involved in the subtalar joint: talus and calcaneus
Location of the axis of motion of the subtalar joint: posterior to the talus
A high axis of motion of the STJ leads to a more efficient gait
A lower axis of motion of the STJ leads to a less efficient gait
Total minimum ROM of the STJ necessary for normal gait: 12°
ROM of the STJ should be distributed: 1/3 supination, 2/3 pronation
A medially deviated STJ axis leads to: supination
A laterally deviated STJ axis leads to: pronation

Midtarsal Joint

Bones involved in the 1st ray: 1st metatarsal and 1st phalanges
Direction of the axis of motion of the 1st ray: vertical
Location of the axis of motion of the 1st ray: proximal to the 1st metatarsal
