The term "cavus foot" is used to describe a spectrum of foot shapes that have in common a high arch. The components of cavus are increased pitch and varus of the hindfoot, plantar flexion of the midfoot, and varus and adduction of the forefoot. The cavus shape is associated with changes in the mechanics of the foot. It is less flexible and balanced than a neutral foot. Although one fifth to one quarter of the population has a cavus foot, there is little anatomic description in the literature. This manuscript describes the anatomy and function of cavus foot.
术语“高弓足”用于描述一系列具有共同特征——足弓较高的足部形态。高弓足的组成部分包括后足的倾斜度增加和内翻、中足的跖屈以及前足的内翻和内收。高弓足形态与足部力学变化相关。它比正常足缺乏灵活性且平衡性较差。尽管五分之一到四分之一的人口患有高弓足，但文献中对其解剖结构的描述却很少。本手稿描述了高弓足的解剖结构和功能。
