2023年10月30日 · The ankle joint, also known as the talocrural joint, is a synovial joint that connects the bones of the leg, the fibula and tibia, with the talus of the foot. It is a complex hinge joint composed of two articulations.

2019年2月8日 · The ankle joint (or talocrural joint) is a synovial joint located in the lower limb. It is formed by the bones of the leg (tibia and fibula) and the foot (talus). Functionally, it is a hinge type joint, permitting dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of the foot.

The ankle is composed of three joints: the talocrural joint (also called talotibial joint, tibiotalar joint, talar mortise, talar joint), the subtalar joint (also called talocalcaneal), and the Inferior tibiofibular joint.

Talocrural Joint is a uniaxial hinge joint that has just 1° of Motion; The reported normal available range for dorsiflexion varies in the literature between 0-16.5 o and 0-25 o. This changes in weight-bearing. The normal range of Plantarflexion has been reported to be around 0°- 50° Closed Packed Position [edit | edit source] Maximum ...
