چکیده
AIM Aim of the present study is to know the presence and their percentages of incidences of various patterns of calcaneal articular facets in human tali. PLACE OF STUDY: Department of Anatomy of Sree Dev Raj Urs Medical College, Tamaka, Kolar, Karnataka, India. PERIOD OF STUDY It is a study of two years of 1996-97 and 1997-98 batches of students. METHODS AND MATERIALS Two hundred and forty unknown, dry human tali possessed from the bone sets of students of above batches constituted the materials for the study during the above period. They were carefully examined for articular facets and classified into five groups. OBSERVATIONS The present study on human tali revealed five types articular facets . They are Type-1 were observed in 10% (in 24 tali), similarly Type-2 in 50% (120 tali), Type-3 in 16.66% (40 tali), Type-4 in 5.00% (12 tali), Type-5 in 18.41% (44 tali). Later they were well compared and correlated with available literatures. CONCLUSION This study on human tali has revealed the type of gait, and walking habits and weight bearing bone that has given rise to various articular facets. Hence it has been studied and reported.

متن کاملMorphological Classification of Tali on the Basis of Calcanean Articular Facets-A Cadaveric Study in North Indian Population
Introduction: Out of different tarsal bones ,Talus (astragalus), is the only bone which has no muscular or tendinous attachment. It forms many joints like talocrural, subtalar and talocalcaneo-navicular joints. The prior acquaintance with the anatomical set up of talus and its various articulations holds significance not only in delineating the underlying pathology but also helps in its treatme...
متن کاملMorphometric Measurement and Types of Articular Facets on the Talus and Calcaneus in an Anatolıan Population
Anatomical variations in terms of ligamentous attachments, articulations and bony morphology are common in the subtalar region. The shape of the articular facets of the talus and calcaneus and their relationship to each other are important for joint function and surgical procedures. In this study an assessment of the morphology of the articular facets of the talus and calcaneus, in an Anatolian...

متن کاملArthritis of the subtalar joint associated with sustentaculum tali facet configuration.
The articular facets of the sustentaculum tali have a variety of configurations that are generally viewed as nonmetric traits of little functional significance. Bruckner (1987), in contrast, has hypothesised that sustentaculum tali facet variations are functionally important because they influence subtalar joint stability. To test this hypothesis, 191 calcanei were analysed for correlations bet...
