Table 2 Comparisons of the ratio of tibiotalar joint space width (mean ± SD) between dorsiflexion and plantarflexion relative to the neutral position

From: Joint space width of the tibiotalar joint in the healthy foot

 

Dorsiflexion

Plantarflexion

Tibial plafond*

0.96 ± 0.07

1.17 ± 0.10

Medial malleolus*

0.98 ± 0.71

1.53 ± 0.28

Lateral malleolus*

0.95 ± 0.56

1.09 ± 0.12

  1. Units of measurement are mm/mm (i.e., dorsiflexion/neutral and plantarflexion/neutral)
  2. *Indicates a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) between dorsiflexion and plantarflexion values
