Lace bite is an irritation of the tibialis anterior and toe extensor tendons. [1] The medical term for the condition is "tibialis anterior tendinopathy." [2] This irritation, felt on the front of the foot or ankle, is often experienced by ice hockey players and figure skaters. It is caused by friction between the tendon and tongue of the ice ...
The superior extensor retinaculum binds down the tendons of extensor digitorum longus, extensor hallucis longus, peroneus tertius, and tibialis anterior as they descend on the front of the tibia and fibula; under it are found also the anterior tibial vessels and deep peroneal nerve. [1]
Between it and the tibialis anterior are the upper portions of the anterior tibial vessels and deep peroneal nerve. The muscle passes under the superior and inferior extensor retinaculum of foot in company with the fibularis tertius , and divides into four slips, which run forward on the dorsum of the foot, and are inserted into the second and ...
The muscle dorsiflexes the hallux, and acts similar to the tibialis anterior in the weight-bearing leg. [29] Two muscles on the lateral side of the leg form the fibular (peroneal) group. The fibularis (peroneus) longus and fibularis (peroneus) brevis both have their origins on the fibula, and they both pass behind the lateral malleolus where ...
A compartment space is anatomically determined by an unyielding fascial (and osseous) enclosure of the muscles.The anterior compartment syndrome of the lower leg (often referred to simply as anterior compartment syndrome), can affect any and all four muscles of that compartment: tibialis anterior, extensor hallucis longus, extensor digitorum longus, and peroneus tertius.
The tibialis anterior muscle is the most medial muscle of the anterior compartment of the leg. [1] [better source needed] The muscle ends in a tendon which is apparent on the anteriomedial dorsal aspect of the foot close to the ankle. [citation needed] Its tendon is ensheathed in a synovial sheath.

Three muscles attach to the first metatarsal bone: the tibialis anterior, fibularis longus and first dorsal interosseus. [3] The tibialis anterior inserts at the basis of the bone, while the fibularis longus inserts at the tuberosity. The lateral part of the first dorsal interosseus muscle originates from the medial side of the bone.
