    The interosseous talocalcaneal ligament forms the chief bond of union between the talus and calcaneus.. It is a portion of the united capsules of the talocalcaneonavicular and the talocalcaneal joints, and consists of two partially united layers of fibers, one belonging to the former and the other to the latter joint.

  5. Valgus deformity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valgus_deformity

    A valgus deformity is a condition in which the bone segment distal to a joint is angled outward, that is, angled laterally, away from the body's midline. [1] The opposite deformation, where the twist or angulation is directed medially, toward the center of the body, is called varus.

  6. Flat feet - Wikipedia

    Lateral X-ray of a flat foot with C-sign, which is a bony bridge between the talar dome and sustentaculum tali, in combination with a prominent inferior border of the sustentaculum tali. This represents a talocalcaneal coalition, which is an abnormal connection between the talus and calcaneus and is thought to cause the flat foot deformity in ...

  7. Subtalar joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subtalar_joint

    The subtalar joint is particularly susceptible to arthritis, especially when it has previously been affected by sprains or fractures such as those of the calcaneum or talus. Symptoms of subtalar joint arthritis include pain when walking, loss of motion through the joint's range of motion, and difficulty walking on uneven surfaces.
