  2. Fibularis longus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_longus

    In human anatomy, the fibularis longus (also known as peroneus longus) is a superficial muscle in the lateral compartment of the leg.It acts to tilt the sole of the foot away from the midline of the body and to extend the foot downward away from the body (plantar flexion) at the ankle.

  3. Fibularis muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_muscles

    The fibularis muscles are highly variable. Several variants are occasionally present, including the peroneus digiti minimi and the peroneus quartus. [2] The quartus is more closely associated with the tendons of the extensor digitorum longus and may send a small tendon to the fifth (or little) toe.

  4. Fibularis brevis - Wikipedia

    The tendon then runs forward along the lateral side of the calcaneus, above the calcaneal tubercle and the tendon of the fibularis longus. It inserts into the tuberosity at the base of the fifth metatarsal on its lateral side. The fibularis brevis is supplied by the superficial fibular (peroneal) nerve. [1]

  5. Fibular retinacula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibular_retinacula

    The fibular retinacula (also known as peroneal retinacula) are fibrous retaining bands that bind down the tendons of the fibularis longus and fibularis brevis muscles as they run across the side of the ankle. (Retinaculum is Latin for "retainer.") These bands consist of the superior fibular retinaculum and the inferior fibular retinaculum.

  6. Fibularis tertius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_tertius

    It may be mistaken as a fifth tendon of the extensor digitorum longus. [1] The tendon inserts into the medial part of the posterior surface of the shaft of the fifth metatarsal bone. [1] The fibularis tertius is supplied by the deep fibular nerve. [2] [3] In rare cases, it may also be supplied by the common fibular nerve. [2]

  7. Extensor digitorum longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_digitorum_longus...

    The tendons are inserted in the following manner: each receives a fibrous expansion from the interossei and lumbricals, and then spreads out into a broad aponeurosis, which covers the dorsal surface of the first phalanx: this aponeurosis, at the articulation of the first with the second phalanx, divides into three slips — an intermediate ...

  8. Flexor hallucis longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_hallucis_longus_muscle

    The flexor hallucis longus is situated on the fibular side of the leg. It arises from the inferior two-thirds of the posterior surface of the body of the fibula, with the exception of 2.5 cm at its lowest part; from the lower part of the interosseous membrane; from an intermuscular septum between it and the peroneus muscles, laterally, and from the fascia covering the tibialis posterior, medially.

  9. Superior extensor retinaculum of foot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_extensor_retinac...

    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]
