Human anatomy · Left side

Left ankle & foot

Explore ankle and foot bones in 3D, identify the talus and heel, and follow the forefoot toward the toes.

Atlas notePartial educational model, not a complete dissection. Original whole meshes are retained; close-ups may leave long bones outside the frame. Cartilage, separate ligaments, nerves and vessels are absent. Anatomical review pending.

Understand the region · Left side

From the ankle to the toes

The ankle connection

The talus meets the distal tibia and fibula at the ankle. Beneath it sits the calcaneus, which forms the heel.

OpenStax · Bones of the lower limb ↗

Three groups of foot bones

The principal foot skeleton has seven tarsals, five metatarsals and fourteen phalanges. The big toe has two phalanges; each other toe has three.

Open Guided study · 3 steps above the model. Each button selects the matching structure on this side and sets a useful view. Isolated steps hide the other structures; Show context restores this region.

  1. Locate the talus

    Highlight the talus with the neighboring bones visible. Rotate the assembly to inspect the ankle from the side.

    Open Left talus →
  2. Inspect the heel

    Isolate the calcaneus and examine its shape, then use Show context to restore the foot.

    Open Left calcaneus →
  3. Follow the forefoot

    Highlight the first metatarsal while keeping the other bones visible. Trace the remaining bones toward the big toe.
