the subtalar joint receives support from the ligamentous structures that support the ankle as well as from ligamentous that only cross the subtalar joint.
- from the superfiscial to deep ligament on lateral side
1)calcaneofibular ligament
2)lateral talocalcaneal ligament
3)cervical ligament
4)interosseous ligament
- the cervical ligament is the strongest of the talocalcaneal ligament
-it joins the neck of talus to neck of calcaneous
###
-the interossius talocalcaneal ligamnet lies more medially within the tarsal canal and follows on an oblique path from talus calcaneous.
-division of inferior extensor retinaculum also provides stability to the subtalar joint
