3rd and 4th muscular layers of the foot Flashcards
What are the three muscles of the 3rd compartment?
Flexor hallucis brevis, adductor hallucis, flexor digiti minimi brevis, 2 flexors 1 adductor FHB innervated by medial plantar nerve and 2 flexors by lateral plantar nerve
What are the main origins of FHB?
Y shaped tendon, medial arm: slip from tibialis posterior tendon, lateral arm: cuboid and lateral cuneiform
What are the insertions of FHB?
Main: HPP base on each side, minor: sesamoids and plantar mt ligament
What is the innervation of Flexor hallucis brevis?
Medial plantar nerve
What is the major action of FHB?
Flexes MTPJ 1
What are the main origins of Adductor hallucis?
Two heads, oblique: peroneal sheath and bases of MT 2-4 transverse: fibrous capsule and plantar MT ligaments of MTPJs3-5, deep transverse MT ligament
What is the insertion to adductor hallucis?
Lateral side of the base of the HPP
What is the innervation of Adductor hallucis?
Lateral plantar nerve , deep branch
What are the major actions of Adductor hallucis?
adducts first digit
What is the main origin of flexor digiti minimi brevis?
MT 5 base, peroneal sheath, and promontory of cuboid
What is the insertion of FDMB?
MTPJ capsule, MT5 head and PP5 base
What are the major actions of FDMB?
Plantarflexes MTPJ 5 and can also abduct the 5th toe
What is the innervation of FDMB?
Lateral plantar nerve (superficial branch)
What muscle is formed when some fibers of FDMB distinctly insert onto the lateral aspect of MT 5?
Opponens digiti minimi
What are two extrinsic muscle tendons and 2 intrinsic muscle types located in the 4th compartment?
- tib posterior, 2. Fib longus 3. dorsal interosseus 4. plantar interosseus
DAB AND PAD: What do the abbreviations stand for?
Dorsal interossei= abduction and Pad= plantar int. adduction
Why are there 4 dorsal interossei?
1st- has its own abductor, 2- 2 DI because either medial or lateral movt =abduction, 3 and 4- have 1 DI 5th= has its own abductor
Each dorsal interossei attach to the lateral side of the respective digit except for…
1st dorsal interosseus
Why are there 3 plantar interossei?
1st digit has its own adductor: adductor hallucis, 2nd digit cannot ADDUCT, 3,4,5 digits each have 1 DI
What are the origins of Dorsal interossei?
adjacent sides of MT shafts 1-5, peroneal sheath
Where do interossei muscles insert?
MTPJ capsule, extensor expansion and PP base, digit 2 - both sides, digit 3 and 4- lateral sides
What are the actions of dorsal interossei?
abducts 2-4 digits weak MTPJ flexion and IP extension Simultaneous
What is the innervation of dorsal interrossei?
Lateral Plantar N( deep 1-3, superficial-4) , 1st and 2nd , also deep fib nerve
What is the origin of plantar interossei?
plantar aspect of medial sides of MT shaft 3-5
What is the insertion of the plantar interossei?
MTPJ capsule, extensor expansion and PP base
What are the major actions of plantar inter?
Abducts 3-5 digits, weak simultaneous MTPJ flexion and IP extension
What is the innervation of the plantar interossei?
Lateral plantar nerve ( deep 1-2, superficial-3)
What does the superficial division of the lateral plantar nerve innervate?
FDMB, 4th dorsal interossei and 3rd plantar interossei
What does the deep branch of the lateral plantar nerve innervate?
adductor hallucis, 1-3 dorsal interossei, 1-2 plantar interossei, 2-4th lumbricals.
What muscles does the lateral plantar nerve innervate before it divides into its superficial and deep branches?
FDB, Abductor digiti minimi, Quadratus plantae
What are the 1st and 2nd Dorsal interossei innervated by
the deep fibular nerve
