Abstract
This review is intended to provide a working knowledge of clinical anatomy and arthrokinematics of the foot and ankle. Primary functions of the foot, the gait cycle, and pathomechanics will also be discussed. Emphasis is placed on basic biomechanical considerations which form the basis for both static and dynamic evaluations. Also presented are some of the most commonly seen osseous deformities contributing to pathomechanics. J Ortho Sports Phys Ther 1987;9(1):3-10.Keywords
