Are talus Fractures rare?
Yes, less than 3% of all ankle injuries are talus fractures. I fractured my talus 2+ months ago and im still months away from walking. If you can avoid breaking it, Id suggest that.
Tarsal bone that sits on calcaneus?
The tarsal bone that sits on the calcaneus is the talus. The talus forms the primary connection between the foot and the leg, articulating with the tibia and fibula to form the ankle joint. It plays a crucial role in weight-bearing and movement of the foot.
Gravity causes materials to pile up in mounds called what?
Talus
Subchondral insufficiency fracture of the talar head?
I think it would be best to just break this down....subchondral..........situated beneath cartilage insufficiency..........inability of an organ or body part to function normally fracture.............the act or process of breaking or the state of being broken and or the breaking of hard tissue (as bone) Fractures of the Talar Head Talus fractures are relatively uncommon injuries, but can be associated with significant complications. The talus is involved in about 2% of all lower extremity injuries and about 5-7% of foot injuries. It is the most important bone of the foot to stabilize and mobilize soon after injury. Talus fractures are usually associated with hyperdorsiflexion of the ankle as the talar neck impacts the anterior margin of the tibia, such as in a motor vehicle accident or fall from height. The talus articulates superiorly with the tibia and fibula in the ankle mortise and the calcaneous and navicular inferiorly. Body weight is transmitted through the tibia to the superior surface of the talus. The anterior portion of the body is wider than the posterior portion giving stability to the ankle. The neck of the talus connects to the head which connects to the navicular and calcaneous and is the most vulnerable to fracture. The talus has no muscular or tendinous attachments, but has a groove for the flexor hallicus longus tendon. The majority of the talus is covered by articular cartilage. It articulates with the spring ligament inferiorly, the sustentaculum tali posteroinferiorly and the deltoid ligament medially.
Which does not belong calcaneus tarsals carpals talus?

What is the bone of the ankle?
The ankle is formed by three bones: the tibia, fibula, and talus.
What joint is at the distal tibia and fibula?

What is talus?
Talus is rock debris at the bottom of a slope.
A pile of rock fragments at the base of a cliff is called a?
This may be known as a scree slope or a talus pile. Talus and scree are normally used interchangeably, however scree normally refers to material of gravel size or smaller and talus to larger debris.

Talus-Saint-Prix's population is 84.
What is the common name of talus?
The common name for talus is ankle. Tal- is the related medical terminology combining form.
What does the fibula articulate with distally?
The fibula articulates with the talus distally. The talus is the superiormost of the tarsals.
