Common fibular nerve
Subdivision of the foot, navicular bone is part of.
Midfoot
The malleoli of the tibia and fibula form the mortise component of the ankle joint. What forms the tenon?
Talus
Muscle attaches to both the medial aspect of the femur and the adductor tubercle creating the adductor hiatus.
Adductor magnus
Muscle, evagination of its fascia forms the deep inguinal ring.
