  • tendon of tibialis posterior (1st compartment) - tendon of flexor digitorum longus (2nd compartment) - posterior tibial a. and tibial n. (3rd compartment) - tendon of flexor hallucis longus m. (4th compartment)
137
Q

blood supply to talus

A
  • artery of the tarsal canal - originates from the posterior tibial before its termination
138
Q

what does the deep plantar arch anastomosis with medilaly?

A
  • deep plantar branch of the dorsalis pedis artery and lateral branch of the ramus profundus of medial plantar a. * if dorsalis pedis missing, usually no contribution to deep plantar arch from the dorsal side of foot or the perforating branch of the peroneal a may contribute to the arch

A

adducts the 1st toe at the first metatarsophalangeal joints

143
Q

origin of plantar interossei

A
  • bases and medial sides of the shafts of the third, fourth and fifth metatarsals
144
