tarsometatarsal injuries
The two longitudinal arches serve as pillars for the transverse arch which run obliquely across the tarsometatarsal joints.
This technique is not absolutely specific, as the distal pouches of the tarsometatarsal joint are immediately adjacent to the suspensory ligament.
There are several ways and extents in which the tarsometatarsal fusion is accomplished throughout bird evolution.
If, however, it enters the tarsometatarsal joint, then it is an avulsion fracture caused by pull from the peroneus brevis.
The tarsometatarsal articulation reaches the tympanum or the hinder border of the eye.
The tarsometatarsal articulation reaches the eye, or between the eye and the tip of the snout.
