  2. Fibularis longus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_longus

    In both of these locations, the tendon is thickened. At the cuboid, a fibrocartilaginous sesamoid (sometimes a sesamoid bone) usually develops in the substance of the tendon. [2] The fibularis longus muscle is supplied by the superficial fibular nerve, which arises from the fifth lumbar and first sacral roots of the spinal cord. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sesamoid_bone

    Sesamoid bones can be found on joints throughout the human body, including: In the knee—the patella (within the quadriceps tendon). This is the largest sesamoid bone. [4] In the hand—two sesamoid bones are commonly found in the distal portions of the first metacarpal bone (within the tendons of adductor pollicis and flexor pollicis brevis).

    Accessory bones of the ankle. [13]Accessory bones at the ankle mainly include: Os subtibiale, with a prevalence of approximately 1%. [14] It is a secondary ossification center of the distal tibia that appears during the first year of life, and which in most people fuses with the shaft at approximately 15 years in females and approximately 17 years in males.

    A sesamoid bone is a small, round bone that, as the name suggests, is shaped like a sesame seed. These bones form in tendons (the sheaths of tissue that connect bones to muscles) where a great deal of pressure is generated in a joint. The sesamoid bones protect tendons by helping them overcome compressive forces.

  8. Malleolus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malleolus

    The posterior border is broad and presents the shallow malleolar sulcus, for the passage of the tendons of the peronæi longus and brevis. The summit is rounded and gives attachment to the calcaneofibular ligament. A major structure that is located between the lateral malleolus and the Achilles tendon is the sural nerve.

  9. Fibula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibula

    The most common type of fibula fracture is located at the distal end of the bone, and is classified as ankle fracture. In the Danis–Weber classification it has three categories: [ 5 ] Type A : Fracture of the lateral malleolus , distal to the syndesmosis (the connection between the distal ends of the tibia and fibula).
