29
Superficial Fibular Nerve (origin, course, and supply)
Originates from common fibular nerve Course: After supplying the lateral leg, courses superficial to the extensor retinacula and on the dorsum of the foot, divides into medial and intermediate dorsal cutaneous nn. Cutaneous supply: 1. skin of dorsum of foot, 2. dorsal digital branches to the medial side of the great toe, 3. lateral side of the second toe, 4. all other toes.
30
Deep Fibular Nerve (origin, course, and supply)
Originates from common fibular nerve Motor Innervation to: Extensor Hallucis Brevis Extensor Digitorum brevis Cutaneous Innervation to web of skin between toes 1 and 2
31
Saphenous Nerve (origin, course, and supply)
Originates from femoral nerve (L4) Course: Pierces through vastoadductor membrane to exist adductor canal. Travels along medial knee, leg, and foot Cutaneous supply: to medial knee, leg, and foot.
32
Sural Nerve (origin, course, and supply)
Originates from common fibular (lateral sural) and tibial (medial sural) nn. Courses along posterior leg, lateral malleolus, and lateral foot. Cutaneous supply: posterior leg, region over lateral malleolus, and lateral foot.
33
Medial Plantar Nerve Origin
Originates from tibial nerve, posterior to the medial malleolus.
34
Lateral Plantar Nerve Origin
Originates from tibial nerve posterior to the medial malleolus.
35
Lateral Plantar Nerve Course
Course: through abductor hallucis and then travels anterolaterally between the muscles flexor digitorum brevis and quadratus plantae. The nerve exits lateral to flexor digitorum brevis to course in the lateral compartment of foot. Here, it divides into superficial and deep branches. The deep branch turns medially, coursing deeply between adductor hallucis and the interossei
36
Lateral Plantar Nerve Motor Innervation (6)
Motor supply: 1. abductor digiti minimi, 2. flexor digiti minimi, 3. quadratus plantae, 4. lateral 3 lumbricals, 5. plantar interossei, 6. dorsal interossei.
37
Lateral Plantar Nerve Cutaneous Innervation
Cutaneous supply: 1. to the lateral plantar surface of foot 2. lateral 1 ½ digits via common and proper plantar digital nn.
38
Medial Plantar Nerve Course
Course: through abductor hallucis and then travels distally in medial compartment of foot between abductor hallucis and flexor digitorum brevis.
39
Medial Plantar Nerve Motor Innervation
Motor supply: 1. abductor hallucis, 2. flexor hallucis brevis, 3. flexor digitorum brevis, 4. medial lumbrical.
40
Medial Nerve Cutaneous Innervation
Cutaneous innervation: 1. medial plantar surface of foot a 2. medial 3 ½ digits via common and proper plantar digital nn.
