24 and 25 and 26 Flashcards
What surounds the leg muscles
crural fascia
compartments of crural fascia devides muscle into 3 compartments
anterior compartment
lateral compartment
posterior compartment
muscles of the anterior leg
tibialis anterior
extensor digitorumm longus
fibularis tertius
extensor hallucis longus
tibialis anterior
proximal tibia
medial cunieform and base of 1st metacarpal
deep fibular nerve
ankle dorsiflextion, foot inversion
extensor digitorum longus
proximal tibia and fibula
middle and distal phalanges of digits 2-5 via extensor expansions
deep fibular nerve
ankle dorsiflexion, extension of digits 2-5
fibularis tertius
a lateral extension of extensor digitorum longus
not always present
distal half of fibula
base of 5th metatarsal
deep fibular nerve
ankle dorsiflexion
foot eversion
extensor hallucis longus
shaft of fibula
distal phalanx of first digit
deep fibular nerve
ankle dorsiflexion, exension of first digit
retinacula
at the ankle joint, there are thickinings of the crural fascia that from bands called retanacula
helps to anchor the tendons that cros the ankle joint and prevent them from “bowstringing” during dorsiflexion
what supleies all the muscles of the anterior compartment of the leg and what it come from
deep fibular nerve
comes from common fibular nerve which winds around the neck of the fibula and then devides into superficial fibular nerve and deep fibular nerve
what is the major artery found tin the anterior compartment of the leg
where it come from, where it go
anterior tibial artery
popliteal artery splits just distal to the poplieal fossa, into anterior tibial artery and posterior tibial artery
anterior tibial artery continues onto the dorsum of the foot as the dorsalis pedis artery
what are the muscles of the lateral compartmetn of the leg
fibularis longus and fibularis brevis
fibularis longus
head of the fibula
medial cuneiform and base of 1st metatarsal
superficial fibulr nerve
foot eversion, ankle plantarflexion
fibularis brevis
lateral surface of fibula
base of 5th metatarsal
superficial fibular nerve
foot eversion, ankle plantarflexion
where do the tendons of fibularis longus and brevis pass
behind the lateral malleolus
superficial fibular nerve suppleis all the muscles in the laterla compartment of the leg where it from
laterlal compartment of the leg, deep fibular nerve
