Tibial-fibular trunk Picture of arteries of the lower limb, showing fibular artery and its source, the posterior tibial artery . The perforating branch of fibular artery is also shown as is the tibial-fibular trunk.
It supplies a perforating branch to both the lateral and anterior compartments of the leg; it also provides a nutrient artery to the fibula. Some sources claim that the fibular artery arises directly from the posterior tibial artery, but vascular and plastic surgeons note the clinical significance of the tibial-fibular trunk. [2]
Superficial fibular nerve (L5, S1, S2) Everts foot and weakly plantarflexes ankle Fibularis brevis: Inferior two thirds of lateral surface of fibula: Dorsal surface of tuberosity on lateral side of base of 5th metatarsal
The second perforating artery (a. perforans secunda), larger than the first, pierces the tendons of the adductores brevis and magnus, and divides into ascending and descending branches, which supply the posterior femoral muscles, anastomosing with the first and third perforating. The second artery frequently arises in common with the first. The ...
fibular artery (sometimes from popliteal artery) communicating branch to the anterior tibial artery; perforating branch to the posterior tibial artery; medial plantar artery; lateral plantar artery; sural artery; medial superior genicular artery. Branch to vastus medialis; Branch to surface of the femur and the knee-joint; lateral superior ...
The fibular artery typically arises from the posterior tibial artery. [3] Therefore, the posterior tibial artery proximal to the fibular artery origin is sometimes called the tibial-peroneal trunk or tibial-fibular trunk and it could be said that the popliteal artery bifurcates into the tibial-fibular trunk and anterior tibial artery.
The posterior tibial artery of the lower limb is an artery that carries blood to the posterior compartment of the leg and plantar surface of the foot. It branches from the popliteal artery via the tibial-fibular trunk .
The anterolateral central arteries or lenticulostriate arteries [3] (also anterolateral perforating arteries, anterolateral ganglionic arteries, striate arteries, or lateral striate arteries; latin aa. centrales anterolaterales, [4] or aa. lenticulostriatae [4]) are a group of small arteries mostly arising from (the initial M1 part of) the middle cerebral artery that enter the brain through ...
