PretestPretest1. Pain behind the ankle on the posterior lateral aspect indicates a: a.)
calcaneofibular ligament injury, b.) fibularis tendon or tibialis posterior injury, c.) posterior talofibular ligament injury, or d.) tibialis posterior tendon injury
2. The posterior talofibular ligament: a.) doesn’t have an effective assessment test, b.) never gets injured, c.) doesn’t connect any bones, or d.) is connected to the anterior talofibular ligament
3. Posterior ligament sprains are: a.) the least common of the lateral ligament sprains, b.) the most common of the lateral ligament sprains, c.) more common than calcaneofibular ligament sprains, or d.) easy to detect
4. The cruciate crural ligament or retinaculum holds: a.) the nerves of the foot in place, b.) the flexor hallucis in place, c.) many of the extensor tendons of the foot in place, or d.) the ankle joint in place
5. How many cruciate crural ligaments are there? a.) Five, b.) Three, c.) Two, or d.) Six
6. The retinaculum is often injured along with: a.) a deltoid ligament, b.) a cuboid ligament, c.) a medial ankle sprain or with falling, or d.) a lateral ankle sprain or with something heavy dropped on the foot
