Fig. 2A 74-year-old male soft-embalmed cadaver with full-thickness tear of
second plantar plate of left foot. Sagittal proton densityweighted
image lateral to flexor tendon has been rotated to correspond directly to
sonogram in Figs. 1A and

Low-signal-intensity fibers of fifth plantar plate are seen to insert onto
proximal phalanx (arrow), contrasting with increased signal intensity
of articular cartilage (arrowheads).
