Q

how to prepare to expose the first muscular layer?

A
  1. free up the plantar aponeurosis from the more dorsal structures
    • (e.g. FDB takes part of its origin from the central plantar aponeurosis)
  2. cut the digitations of the central aponeurosis as far distally as possible
  3. reflect each of these digitations proximally, and free the underlying muscle from the aponeurosis
  4. once you reflect the central PA, hold it out of the way

Q

What is the major segmental innervation to the FOOT INTRINSICS muscles?

What are the motor and sensory functions?

  1. S2 - innervates the foot intrinsics
  2. Motor:
    • flex metatarsophalangeal, and
    • extend interphalangeal joints of 4 lateral toes

Q

how do you test intrinsic flexors?

what makes this difficult?

A
  • intrinsic flexors can be tested along w/ the extrinsic flexors as shown below in the “paper grip test” for the lesser toes
    • pt plantarflexes the toes to prevent the card from sliding out from under forefoot
    • the big toe can be tested on its own
  • assessing the strength of intrinsic muscles in isolation can be difficult because MOST individuals lack fine motor control of their toes

Q

what is the collective function of intrinsic muscles during weight-bearing activity, as indicated by studies

A

role during quiet standing is unclear;

*in general, active during terminal stance phase to provide stabilization for forefoot propulsion

Q

muscles and innervation of the 1st layer?

A

2 ABDUCTORS, 1 FLEXOR

  • Medial 2 are innervated by the medial plantar nerve (L4-S3)
  • Lateral 2* innervated by the lateral plantar nerve (S1-S3)

Therefore, FDB can be dually innervated!

Q

review the “ILL-FATED LOVE STORY” for the path of the

Flexor digitorum brevis tendon

A
17
Q

what is the “nicer love story” version for the course of the FDBT

A
18
Q

describe the digital insertions of the:

extensor digitorum brevis &

and extensor digitorum longus

A
  • 2-4th digits; 5th if EDB tendon present
  • As Extensor digitorum brevis tendon crosses the proximal phalanx, joined by the Extensor digitorum longus tendon
