Product Description

This 3D printed foot with deep plantar structures provides a view of deep plantar structures of a right foot. Medially, the cut edge of the great saphenous vein is visible within the superficial fascia, just anterior to the cut edges of the medial and lateral plantar arteries and nerves overlying the insertion of the tibialis posterior muscle. The superficial fascias, the plantar aponeurosis, and superficial musculature have been removed to expose the deep (third layer) of musculature.

The cut edges of the first, second and third layer muscles are preserved on the calcaneus for orientation, as is the cut tendon of the flexor digitorum longus muscle descending into the foot and the exposed distal tendons of the flexor digitorum longus and brevis muscles. The transverse and oblique heads of the adductor hallucis are visible deep to the tendon of the flexor hallucis longus muscle (surrounded by a complete lateral head and partial medial head of the flexor hallucis brevis muscle).

The plantar interosseous muscles are visible deep to the adductor hallucis. Deep to the musculature the ligaments of the tarsal and metatarsal joint capsules are exposed, as well as the long and short plantar ligaments and the plantar calcaneonavicular ligament. On the lateral aspect, the abductor digiti minimi muscle has been sectioned to expose the insertions of the peroneus longus and brevis tendons are exposed.

Made to Order

Please Note: Thanks to the flexibility of manufacturing that 3D Printing offers, this 3D printed foot with deep plantar structures is “printed to order”, and is not typically available for immediate shipment. Most models are printed within 15 working days and arrive within 3-5 weeks of ordering, and once an order is submitted to us, it cannot be canceled or altered. Please contact us if you have specific a specific delivery date requirement, and we will do our best to deliver the model by your target date.

Advantages of 3D Printed Anatomical Models

• 3D printed anatomical models are the most anatomically accurate examples of human anatomy because they are based on real human specimens.
• Avoid the ethical complications and complex handling, storage, and documentation requirements with 3D printed models when compared to human cadaveric specimens.
• 3D printed anatomy models are far less expensive than real human cadaveric specimens.
• Reproducibility and consistency allow for standardization of education and faster availability of models when you need them.
• Customization options are available for specific applications or educational needs. Enlargement, highlighting of specific anatomical structures, cutaway views, and more are just some of the customizations available.
