Joint of the Foot Model

Good quality for price!

I rolled my ankle and severely dislocated it, and ended up with a trimalleolar fracture. I'm not a very visual person, plus x-rays are 2D, so I got this 3D model for myself to use to show my doctor what I thought happened. It was also helpful when discussing surgery, as my doctor showed me where exactly my ankle was broken and explained what he would be doing to fix it.

Very good foot bones anatomy

As a physical therapy student this model has helped me so much! It is very accurate and is easy to take the model off and on the stand. I love that it is removable from the stand because I can treat it as if it is a patients foot and hold it freely in my hand. I was also pleasantly surprised that the joints are actually flexible because they are connected by tight bungie cord type string. It has really helped me visualize the mobility and joint movement in the foot and ankle. I highly recommend this model for anyone needing to study this anatomy!

I have a nice collection of (fake) human skulls, so I figured why not add a foot. This is very realistic looking. It is wired together with some movement possible. This will look great in my display cabinet with the skulls, and will also make a nice teaching tool for my 2nd graders. It looks to be about a size 8, so not too small. All in all, it is made well and looks good.

We purchased this model to use for lectures and with patients in a physical therapy clinic. For the most part, the model is good, but there are some significant seems in the plastic. The model does articulate, but has limited mobility in the MTP joint and the TC joint. The model is held together by what looks like fishing line and we are a little worried that if we move some of the joints too much that the line will break. That said, it is still a decent purchase considering the price.

This makes looking at and knowing where all the bones on the foot are easy! It would be better if the wires/strings holding the pieces together were a bit more lax, making the joints easier to move around, but great product overall

It is way too small and out of proportion.
