Foot and Ankle Flashcards
What is the name of tendon A?
superficial transverse metatarsal ligaments
What is structure C?
plantar aponeurosis
Identify structure D.
medial process of calcaneal tuberosity
Where does vein C originate?
The Great Saphenous vein originates from the medial side of the dorsal venus arch
1) Identify structure B
2) What bones articulate with that structure?
lateral malleolus
bones: fibula and talus
Identify structure D.
Name the tendons, nerves, arteries, and/or veins that pass through this area from medial to lateral.
tibialis posterior tendon, flexor digitorium longus tendon, posteior tibial artery and associated vein, tibial nerve and flexor hallucis longus tendon.
“tom, dick, and a very nervous harry”
What is the termination of structure C?
drains into the femoral vein
Identify structure D.
Is it sensory or motor?
What structures does it innervate?
Lateral plantar nerve.
both sensory and motor
innervates all intrinsic muscles in the sole exept the muscles supplied by medial plantar nerve (abductor hallucis, flexor digitorum brevis, flexor hallucis brevis, and first lumbrical).
Identify structure C.
medial plantar nerve
Identify structure F.
Give the function.
flexor digiti minimi brevis.
