By Jacques Guyot
The purpose of this publication is to offer as thoroughly as attainable an outline of the joints of the human limbs, utilizing pictures and drawings of anatomical dissections. latest descriptive anatomical bills are usually theoretical and never associated with useful job of the joints involved; they lack sensible demonstra tion of the anatomy. we are hoping to fill the distance within the to be had literature by way of presentation of this e-book. The paintings is directed in the direction of anatomists, medical professionals attracted to joint pathology, orthopaedic surgeons, rheumatologists, radiologists, experts in activity accidents and rehabilitation, additionally to physicians typically, physiotherapists and scholars. The publication is split into seven chapters. each one bankruptcy includes elements: the 1st is a quick account of the useful anatomy of the joint. It doesn't provide an entire description yet an total precis of the practical buildings concerned. the second one part, the most half, contains illustrations (drawings and pictures of anatomical dissections). The dissections and the images have been ready within the division of Anatomy directed via Professor HENRI M. DUVERNaY from cadaveric specimens preserved through the tactic defined via WINCKLER (1964). the method of dissecting the ligamentous constructions round joints has proved techni cally tough. you can still create artificially constructions from the mass of fibrous tissue and on a couple of events we've been not able to find ligaments that are defined in a few anatomical bills.

3 The Forefoot The forefoot participates in propulsion and stabilization through the tarsometatarsal, metatarsophalangeal and interphalangeal joints. (a) The Tarsometatarsal Joints. These are plane joints united by solid interosseous ligaments especially strong between the medial cuneiform and the first and second metatarsals. The ligaments firmly stabilise the central metatarsals to the tarsus and through simple vertical gliding movements, the outer (I and V) metatarsals adapt to the ground surface.
The movement is an association of plantar flexion, supination and adduction. Eversion brings the sole of the foot downwards and outwards, a combination of dorsiflexion, pronation, and abduction. The axis of in version-eversion has been described by Henke (1884). The axis passes through the superomedial aspect of the neck of the talus, and crosses the sinus tarsi leaving the bone at the lateral process of the calcaneus. Transverse stabilization relates to a number of joints responsible for inversion and eversion.
