The navicular-sphenoid ligaments are two tendons that connect the navicular bone to the sphenoid bone of the foot. They play an important role in maintaining foot stability and movement.
The internal navicular-sphenoid ligament (l. Scaphoideocuneiforme Internum) is a tendon that connects the navicular and wedge-shaped bones of the foot. It is one of two ligaments that make up the scaphoid-sphenoid complex.
The internal navicular-cuneiform ligament plays an important role in stabilizing the foot during walking and running. It helps keep the foot in the correct position and prevents it from dislocating.
In addition, the internal navicular-cuneiform ligament is involved in the movement of the foot. It is responsible for moving the foot forward and backward, as well as for its rotation.
If the internal navicular cuneiform ligament is damaged, it can lead to a variety of foot problems such as pain, swelling, limited movement, and even sprains.
To prevent damage to the navicular-sphenoid ligament, it is necessary to choose the right shoes, avoid overloading the foot and exercise regularly.
The internal scaphoid ligament (LSC - lamelle ligamentis scaphoideo-cuneiforine interne) belongs to a group of ligaments that form an arch in the area of the scaphoid bones. This ligament connects the scaphoid bone, which forms the elbow joint, with the sphenoid bone, which is located on the outside of the wrist and forms its outline.
The LSC ligament is loop-shaped and consists of fibers that extend from the scaphoid bone to the lunate bone on the inside of the wrist. When sprained or stressed, this ligament can tighten and cause pain in the elbow joint, as well as cause instability when extending the wrist joint.
