| Background Hallux valgus (HV) is a complex forefoot deformity influenced by interactions between osseous alignment, ligamentous restraint, and muscle–tendon forces. While the biomechanical role of ligament laxity and bone geometry has been extensively investigated, the contribution of tibialis anterior (TA) tendon insertion variability to medial column mechanics remains insufficiently understood. Materials and Methods A patient-specific finite element model of the foot was developed from high-resolution computed tomography data. Five anatomically documented TA distal insertion configurations were modeled, representing different distributions of attachment to the medial cuneiform and first metatarsal base. All simulations were performed under identical boundary and loading conditions representative of the stance phase of gait. Global (full-foot) and local (first bone and first metatarsal) mechanical responses were quantified using total deformation, equivalent von Mises stress, and strain distributions. Results Marked differences in mechanical behavior were observed across TA insertion types. The metatarsal-dominant configuration (Type 3) demonstrated the highest global and local deformation values (global deformation: 1.0928 mm; first bone deformation: 1.0928 mm) and elevated strain distributions, whereas the medial-dominant configuration (Type 2) showed minimal deformation (global: 0.0727 mm; first bone: 0.0350 mm) but the highest global equivalent von Mises stress (5.7698 MPa). The single-band insertion to the medial cuneiform (Type 5) produced the greatest localized stress in the first bone region (3.8634 MPa … |
