As a 2022 review explains, flat feet result from the loss of the medial longitudinal arch. This part of the foot is tough and elastic. It contains an interconnected array of tendons, ligaments ...

Flat foot, also known as pes planus or pes valgus, is a condition that is most commonly defined by a collapse in the medial longitudinal arch of the foot and sagging of the heel valgus.

This upper arch tag teams with the better known example along the bottom side of the foot called the medial longitudinal arch. Together, they account for our uniquely human feet’s stiffness ...

Unlike the medial longitudinal arch, which travels the length of the foot, the transverse arch spans the width of the midfoot. Related Human brain, braincase evolved independently, researchers say ...

The foot is an intricate network of bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles. What is typically referred to as "the arch" is the medial arch, running front to back on the inner half of the foot.

It is boat-shaped and forms the uppermost portion of the medial longitudinal arch of the foot and acts as a keystone of the arch. It has six articular surfaces. The three cuneiforms are named for ...

Efficiently standing up and walking and running on two feet stands out among the traits that separates Homo sapiens from great apes—and we can owe a lot of that to a raised medial arch.
