The deltoid ligament (or medial ligament of talocrural joint) is a strong, flat, triangular band, attached, above, to the apex and anterior and posterior borders of the medial malleolus. The deltoid ligament supports the ankle joint and also resists excessive eversion of the foot. [1] The deltoid ligament is composed of 4 fibers:
Plantar intercuneiform ligaments; Plantar metatarsal ligaments; Plantar plate; Plantar tarsometatarsal ligaments; Posterior cruciate ligament injury; Posterior ligament of the head of the fibula; Posterior talocalcaneal ligament; Posterior talofibular ligament; Posterior tibiofibular ligament; Posterolateral corner injuries; Pubofemoral ligament
The summit of the medial malleolus is marked by a rough depression behind, for the attachment of the deltoid ligament. The major structure that passes anterior to the medial malleolus is the saphenous vein. Structures that pass behind medial malleolus deep to the flexor retinaculum: Tibialis posterior tendon; Flexor digitorum longus
Deltoid (delta-shaped) can refer to: The deltoid muscle, a muscle in the shoulder; Kite (geometry), also known as a deltoid, a type of quadrilateral; A deltoid curve, a three-cusped hypocycloid; A leaf shape; The deltoid tuberosity, a part of the humerus; The deltoid ligament, a ligament in the ankle
The medial surface presents at its upper part a pear-shaped articular facet for the medial malleolus, continuous above with the trochlea; below the articular surface is a rough depression for the attachment of the deep portion of the deltoid ligament of the ankle-joint.

The middle (middle) deltoid: Responsible for shoulder abduction (lifting the arm away from the body). The posterior (back) deltoid: Assists with shoulder extension and outward rotation.
