lateral crural ligaments?
fibularis longus
fibularis brevis
attachments of tibialis anterior? 2 insertions !!
origin: lateral surface of most of tibia and interosseous membrane
insertion: medial cuneiform and base of first metatarsal
talus has how many articulating surfaces?
3
fibula
tibia
navicular
action of tibialis anterior?
dorsiflex and invert foot
POWERFUL INVERTER OF FOOT**
attachments of extensor digitorum longus?
origin:most of anterior surface of fibula and interosseous membrane
insertion:
middle and distal phalanges of four lesser digits
innervation of tibialis anterior?
deep fibular nerve
action of extensor digitorum longus?
extens toes, dorsiflexes foot**has fibular tertius
sustentaculum
on calcaneus
maintains talus superiorly by acting as a shelf for body of talus
allows for arch
how many compartments in leg?
4
anterior and posterior intermuscular septa
transverse intermuscular septa
innervation of extensor digitorum longus?
deep fibular nerve
lateral retinaculum?
superior fibular and inferior fibular
over everters
flexor retinaculum?
medial side of foot
for flexors
muscles of anterior crural compartment?
tibialis anterior
extensor digitorum longus
extensor hallucis longus
fibularis tertius
attachment of fibularis tertius
origin:distal anterior surface of fibula (continuation of extensor digitorum longus
)insertion:base of 5th metatarsal
extensor retinaculum?
super and inferior-over extensors of foot
action of fibularis tertius
aids in eversion and dorsiflexion
innervation of fibularis tertius?
deep fibular nerve
attachments of extensor hallucis longus?
origin:mid-portion of fibula, deep to tibialis anterior and extensor digitoruminsertion:base of distal phalanx of great toe (Hallux)
action of extensor hallucis longus?
extends great toe, dorsiflexes foot
attachment of extensor digitorum brevis?
- *only muscle on dorsum of foot
- has extensor hallucis brevis component
origin:dorsal surface of calcaneusinsertion:base of proximal phalanx of great toe and proximal phalanges of toes 2,3 and 4 which attach in concert with tendons of extensor digitorum longus
innervation of extensor hallucis longus?
deep fibular nerve
