Unit 2: Lecture 20 Flashcards
Articulations between the tibia and fibula
- superior tibiofibular joint
- inferior tibiofibular joint
- middle tibiofibular joint
The tibiofibular interosseous membrane has two openings - one superior and one inferior - for structures to pass through…
- anterior tibial vessels to anterior fascial compartment
- perforating branch of the peroneal artery to anterior fascial compartment
Anterior Fascial Compartment muscles of LEG
- tibialis anterior
- extensor hallucis
- extensor digitorum longus/brevis
- peroneus tertius
DEEP PERONEAL NERVE (of common peroneus artery)
ANTERIOR TIBIAL ARTERY
Lateral Fascial compartment muscles of LEG
peroneus longus and brevis
SUPERFICIAL PERONEAL NERVE (of common peroneus artery)
PERONEAL ARTERY
Posterior fascial compartment muscles (superficial) of LEG
- gastrocnemius
- plantaris
- soleus
TIBIAL NERVE (of sciatic N.)
POSTERIOR TIBIAL ARTERY
Posterior fascial compartment muscles (deep)
of LEG
- popliteus
- flexor digitorum longus
- flexor hallucis longus
- tibialis posterior
