Anatomical Models - Lower extremities models

Anatomical models of the lower limb are an excellent solution for learning biology, anatomy and presenting the above structures at various medical conferences. Additionally, these models are very often used as a decorative element in medical, physiotherapy and orthopedic offices. They also help explain to patients their ailments and the medical procedures that will be performed on them. Our teaching models are an ideal tool that serves as a source of knowledge for everyone interested in the human body and its functioning. Thanks to their three-dimensional structure and precise workmanship, these models allow for quick understanding of the anatomical structure and biomechanical relationships occurring in the human lower limb. Our online store offers models of lower limb joints, a large selection of foot models and lower limb skeletons. Each anatomical model of the human lower limb was created from durable materials and with great care and precision.

Anatomical structure of the lower limb:

The human lower limb consists of:
Bones:
  • femur - which is the largest bone of the lower limb, connects to the pelvis through the hip joint and to the tibia through the knee joint.
  • tibia - the second largest bone, it is the main axis of the lower limb.
  • fibula - located next to the tibia, it does not form a direct connection with the knee joint. It is part of the ankle joint.
  • bones of the foot - the main bones in the foot are the calcaneus, talus, cuneiform bones, metatarsals and toes. The heel bone is located on the back of the foot and has a heel bone, which is one of the three points of support for the foot while standing. The talus connects the calcaneus to the fibula. The cuneiform bones are quite small and connect the talus with the metatarsal bones. The metatarsal bones are elongated and are responsible for flexibility and shock absorption while walking.
Joints:
  • hip joint - it is a ball-and-socket joint. The acetabulum of this joint is formed by the pelvic bone, and the head by the head of the femur. This joint has the thickest and strongest joint capsule. # the main movements occurring in the hip joint are flexion (135 degrees), slight extension, abduction and adduction (approx. 40 degrees) and external rotation (15 degrees) and internal rotation (35 degrees). The strongest hip flexor is the rectus femoris muscle, and the extensor is the gluteus maximus muscle. When it comes to adductors, the main muscle is the adductor magnus. The abductor group consists of the gluteal muscles, the tensor fascia lata and the rectus femoris muscle.
  • knee joint - the articular head consists of two convex condyles of the femur, while the acetabulum is formed by the condyles of the tibia together with the patella. There are two patches in the knee joint: lateral and medial. There are many ligaments in the knee, which can be broadly divided into collateral, cruciate and other ligaments.
  • ankle joint - should be divided into the upper, lower and anterior ankle joints. The upper ankle joint, i.e. the ankle joint, is the connection of the tibia and fibula with the trochlea of the talus. This joint is a complex hinge type joint. The lower ankle joint connects the talus with the calcaneus and navicular bones and is divided into the posterior ankle joint and the anterior ankle joint. The lower ankle joint is functionally coupled with the upper ankle joint and allows for the movement of foot inversion and eversion. As a result, thanks to the stability of the lower ankle joint, the foot adapts to the unevenness of the ground.
Muscles, ligaments and tendons:
  • They stabilize the bones against each other and, thanks to the mutual passive and active work, enable the movements of the lower limb.
Blood vessels and nerves:
  • Blood vessels transport blood and nutrients to the tissues of the lower limb.
  • The nerves are responsible for transmitting nerve signals, thus enabling the control of movements and the perception of stimuli from the lower limb.

Main functions of the lower limbs:

  • Support - the lower limbs enable a person to maintain an upright posture and transfer body weight while walking, standing and performing various everyday activities.
  • Locomotion - the lower limbs enable movement, which allows a person to perform work, everyday activities, sports and many others.
  • Movement and mobility - thanks to the joints present in the lower limbs, a person can perform various movements, such as bending, straightening, twisting and rotating the legs.
  • Maintaining balance - the muscles, tendons and ligaments of the lower limbs play a key role in maintaining the body's balance during various activities, preventing falls and injuries.
  • Shock Absorption - The joints and structures of the lower limbs help minimize shock when walking or running, thereby protecting other parts of the body from excessive stress.
  • Sensing and controlling posture - the lower limbs provide sensory information about the surface on which we move, which helps in controlling body posture. Fitness and physical activity - the lower limbs are crucial when performing physical activities such as running and jumping.

What does the OpenMedis online store offer?

Our offer includes many different anatomical models of lower limbs:
 
  • lower limb skeleton - our assortment includes various types of lower limb skeleton models. The models have a skeleton of a lower limb with a foot. Additionally, some models have hand-made markings of the initial and final muscle attachments. Some models are also equipped with half of the pelvic girdle.
  • models of lower limb joints - our offer includes models of lower limb joints along with ligaments. Additionally, some models are equipped with fragments of muscles located within a given joint. We also have a cross-sectional model of the knee, where the structure of bones, menisci, articular cartilage, synovium and ligaments are presented in different colors.
  • foot models - our resources include foot models mounted on metal wires or flexible lines. In both cases, the models can be used to imitate human movements. You can find vascular models of the feet, models containing muscles, ligament structures and models with a marked network of nerves located in the foot.
Application of anatomical models of lower limbs:
Lower limb teaching models are mainly used in the medical environment. Here are some main uses:
 
  • Medical education - models are used when teaching orthopedics, physiotherapy and osteopathy students. They allow for a better understanding of the anatomical structure and functions of the lower limbs as well as possible pathological processes occurring in them.
  • Diagnostics and therapy - lower limb models allow doctors and therapists to visualize anatomical structures more quickly and facilitate the process of explaining their ailments and planned procedures to patients.
  • Interior design - due to their aesthetic values, these models can be used as an element of the interior design of a clinic or medical office.
The anatomical models of lower limbs that are in our offer are made of the highest quality materials. Thanks to their realistic structure, they enable students to quickly and effectively learn anatomical structures. We also recommend models of the pelvis, spine and models of the upper limbs, which, combined with anatomical models of the lower limbs, will create an ideal set for learning anatomy. If you have any questions or if the lower limb model you need is not available in the store, please contact us via e-mail or telephone. We are sure that together we will be able to provide the necessary materials for learning and improving skills. We can produce custom models with individual specifications.
