  2. Flexor digitorum longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_digitorum_longus_muscle

    The flexor digitorum longus runs along the medial posterior side of the lower leg and aids in flexions of the toes (apart from the big toe). The flexor digitorum longus muscle arises from the posterior surface of the body of the tibia, from immediately below the soleal line to within 7 or 8 cm of its lower extremity, medial to the tibial origin of the tibialis posterior muscle.

  3. Lumbricals of the foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbricals_of_the_foot

    The lumbricals arise from the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus muscle, [1] as far back as their angles of division, each springing from two tendons, except the first. The first lumbrical is unipennate, while the second, third and fourth are bipennate.

    Flexor digitorum longus muscle: Medial part of posterior surface of tibia; by a broad tendon to fibula: Bases of distal phalanges of lateral four digits: Tibial nerve

  5. Tarsal tunnel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarsal_tunnel

    The tibial nerve, posterior tibial artery, posterior tibial vein, and flexor tendons travel in a bundle along this pathway through the tarsal tunnel, in the following order from anteromedial to posterolateral: Tibialis posterior tendon. [2] Flexor digitorum longus tendon. [2] Posterior tibial artery. [2] Posterior tibial vein. [1] Tibial nerve. [2]

  6. Posterior compartment of thigh - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_compartment_of_thigh

    The arteries that supply the posterior compartment of the thigh arise from the inferior gluteal and the perforating branches of the profunda femoris artery, [5] a major collateral branch of the femoral artery and part of the anterior compartment of thigh.

  7. Muscles of the hand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscles_of_the_hand

    The intrinsic muscle groups are the thenar and hypothenar (little finger) muscles; the interossei muscles (four dorsally and three volarly) originating between the metacarpal bones; and the lumbrical muscles arising from the deep flexor (and which are special because they have no bony origin) to insert on the dorsal extensor hood mechanism.

  8. Common flexor sheath of hand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_flexor_sheath_of_hand

    The common flexor sheath of hand or the ulnar bursa [1] is a synovial sheath in the carpal tunnel of the human hand. It contains tendons of the flexor digitorum superficialis and the flexor digitorum profundus , but not the flexor pollicis longus .

  9. Flexor digiti minimi brevis muscle of foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_digiti_minimi...

    The flexor digiti minimi brevis (flexor brevis minimi digiti, flexor digiti quinti brevis) lies under the metatarsal bone on the little toe, and resembles one of the interossei. It arises from the base of the fifth metatarsal bone , and from the sheath of the fibularis longus ; its tendon is inserted into the lateral side of the base of the ...
