AFO known as: Posterior Leaf Spring Designation of the orthosis according to one function: "Posterior Leaf Spring" Spring made from flexible material behind (posterior) the ankle A DAFO often also known as "Posterior Leaf Spring" Not mentioned by the Red Cross in 2006 Provides functional elements against a drop foot.
The plantar calcaneonavicular ligament (also known as the spring ligament or spring ligament complex) is a complex of three ligaments on the underside of the foot that connect the calcaneus with the navicular bone.
The plantar fascia or plantar aponeurosis [1] is the thick connective tissue aponeurosis which supports the arch on the bottom (plantar side) of the foot.Recent studies suggest that the plantar fascia is actually an aponeurosis rather than true fascia.
The posterior talofibular ligament is a ligament that connects the fibula to the talus bone. It runs almost horizontally from the malleolar fossa of the lateral malleolus of the fibula to the lateral tubercle on the posterior surface of the talus. [1] This insertion lies immediately lateral to the groove for the tendon of the flexor hallucis ...
Originally called a laminated or carriage spring, and sometimes referred to as a semi-elliptical spring, elliptical spring, or cart spring, it is one of the oldest forms of vehicle suspension. A leaf spring is one or more narrow, arc-shaped, thin plates that are attached to the axle and chassis in a way that allows the leaf spring to flex ...
The oblique popliteal ligament (posterior ligament) is a broad, flat, fibrous ligament on the posterior knee. [1] It is an extension of the tendon of the semimembranosus muscle. [1] [2] It attaches onto the intercondylar fossa and lateral condyle of the femur. [2] It reinforces the posterior central portion of the knee joint capsule. [3]
The posterior border of the ala of sacrum, shorter than the anterior, also presents two projections separated by a notch, the posterior superior iliac spine and the posterior inferior iliac spine. The posterior superior iliac spine serves for the attachment of the oblique portion of the posterior sacroiliac ligaments and the multifidus.
A study published by Martina et al. [10] stated that rapid maxillary expansion is not more effective than slow maxillary expansion in expanding the maxilla in patients with posterior crossbite. It is important to keep in mind that different studies use different rapid and slow expansion devices and thus comparability between studies is difficult.
