Overview
Medial and lateral view of the right foot Beginning proximally at the subtalar (talocalcaneal) joint. In the upper image, we see the lateral, anterior and interosseous talocalcaneal ligaments, while in the lower image we can identify the medial and posterior talocalcaneal ligaments. Moving distally to the ligaments of the talocalcaneonavicular joint: the dorsal talonavicular and the calcaneonavicular ligaments are visible laterally, and the plantar calcaneonavicular ligament medially. Next, the ligaments of the calcaneocuboid joint: the calcaneocuboid, the dorsal calcaneocuboid and the long plantar ligaments (lateral view). We can also see some ligaments of the cuboideonavicular joint, such as the dorsal cuboideonavicular, and cuboideonavicular ligaments.
