What is in the fourth layer of the muscles of the foot
Plantar interossei
Dorsal interossei
Abductor hallucis origin
- Flexor retinaculum
- Plantar aponerosis
- Medial tubercle of tuberosity of calcaneus
Abductor hallucis insertion
Medial side of base of proximal phalanx of first digit
Abductor hallucis innervation and action
- Medial plantar nerve
- abducts and flexes great toe
Flexor digitorum brevis origin
- Medial tubercle of tuberosity of calcaneus
- plantar aponerosis
Flexor digitorum brevis insertion
Both side of middle phalanges of lateral four digits
Flexor digitorum brevis innervation and action
- medial plantar nerve
- flexes lateral four digits
Abductor digiti minimi origin
- planter aponerosis
- medial and lateral tubercles of tuberosity of calcaneus
Abductor digiti minimi insertion
Lateral side of base of proximal phalanx of fifth digit
Abductor digiti minimi innervation and action
- lateral plantar nerve
- abducts and flexes 5th digit
Quadratus plantae origin
Medial surface and lateral margin of plantar surface of calcaneus
Quadratus plantae insertion
Posterolateral margin of tendons of flexor digitorum longus
Quadratus plantae innervation and action
- lateral plantar nerve
- assists flexor digitorum longus in flexing lateral four digits
Lumbricals origin
Tendons of flexor digitorum longus
Lumbricals insertion
Medial ascept of expansion over lateral four digits
Lumbricals innervation
Medial one: medial plantar nerve
Lateral three: lateral plantar nerve
Lumbricals action
- Flex proximal phalanges
- Extend middle and distal phalanges of lateral four digits
