  2. Fibular artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibular_artery

    The fibular artery arises from the bifurcation of tibial-fibular trunk into the fibular and posterior tibial arteries in the upper part of the leg proper, just below the knee. It runs towards the foot in the deep posterior compartment of the leg, just medial to the fibula. It supplies a perforating branch to both the lateral and anterior ...

  3. Tibial-fibular trunk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tibial-fibular_trunk

    The tibiofibular trunk terminates by bifurcating into two terminal branches: the posterior tibial artery, and the fibular artery. This is the most common configuration of the origins of these arteries, however, many other anatomical variations exist. [1]

  4. Lateral compartment of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lateral_compartment_of_leg

    Its proximal and distal arterial supply consists of perforating branches of the anterior tibial artery and fibular artery. [3] Additional images. Animation. Fibularis ...

  7. Posterior tibial artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_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 .

  8. Circumflex fibular artery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumflex_fibular_artery

    The circumflex fibular artery (circumflex fibular branch, circumflex branch of posterior tibial artery, or circumflex peroneal branch of posterior tibial artery) is a branch of the posterior tibial artery which supplies blood to the knee. [1]

  9. Anterior compartment of leg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_compartment_of_leg

    The anterior compartment of the leg is supplied by the deep fibular nerve (deep peroneal nerve), a branch of the common fibular nerve. The nerve contains axons from the L4, L5, and S1 spinal nerves. Blood for the compartment is supplied by the anterior tibial artery, which runs between the tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus muscles.
