  2. Anterior compartment of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_compartment_of_leg

    Lateral condyle and superior half of lateral surface of tibia and interosseous membrane: Medial and inferior surfaces of medial cuneiform and base of 1st metatarsal: Deep fibular (peroneal) nerve (L4, L5) Dorsiflexes ankle and inverts foot Extensor hallucis longus: Middle part of anterior surface of fibula and interosseous membrane

  3. Fascial compartments of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fascial_compartments_of_leg

    The fascial compartments of the leg are the four fascial compartments that separate and contain the muscles of the lower leg (from the knee to the ankle). The compartments are divided by septa formed from the fascia. The compartments usually have nerve and blood supplies separate from their neighbours.

  4. Tibia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibia

    In human anatomy, the tibia is the second largest bone next to the femur. As in other vertebrates the tibia is one of two bones in the lower leg, the other being the fibula, and is a component of the knee and ankle joints. The ossification or formation of the bone starts from three centers, one in the shaft and one in each extremity.

  5. Tibialis anterior muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibialis_anterior_muscle

    It also functions to 'lock' the ankle, as in toe-kicking a ball, when held in an isometric contraction. [5] [better source needed] The movements of tibialis anterior are dorsiflexion and inversion of the ankle. However, actions of tibialis anterior are dependent on whether the foot is weight bearing or not (closed or open kinetic chain). When ...

  6. Deep fascia of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep_fascia_of_leg

    The deep fascia of leg or crural fascia forms a complete investment to the muscles, and is fused with the periosteum over the subcutaneous surfaces of the bones.. The deep fascia of the leg is continuous above with the fascia lata (deep fascia of the thigh), and is attached around the knee to the patella, the patellar ligament, the tuberosity and condyles of the tibia, and the head of the fibula.

  7. Saphenous nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saphenous_nerve

    The nerve then passes along the tibial side of the leg, accompanied by the great saphenous vein. [4] It descends behind the medial border of the tibia, and, at the lower third of the leg, divides into two branches: one continues its course along the margin of the tibia, and ends at the ankle.

  8. Anterior tibial vein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_tibial_vein

    The anterior tibial vein is a vein in the lower leg. In human anatomy, there are two anterior tibial veins. They originate and receive blood from the dorsal venous arch, on the back of the foot and empties into the popliteal vein. The anterior tibial veins drain the ankle joint, knee joint, tibiofibular joint, and the anterior portion of the ...

  9. Interosseous membrane of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interosseous_membrane_of_leg

    The interosseous membrane of the leg (middle tibiofibular ligament) extends between the interosseous crests of the tibia and fibula, helps stabilize the Tib-Fib relationship and separates the muscles on the front from those on the back of the leg.
