Flexor digitorum brevis is a central plantar muscle of the foot involved in flexing the toes. Learn more about its anatomy and functions at Kenhub!
The flexor digitorum brevis or flexor digitorum communis brevis[1] is a muscle which lies in the middle of the sole of the foot, immediately above the central part of the plantar aponeurosis, with which it is firmly united.
Flexor Digitorum Brevis is the central muscle of the superficial layer of the plantar foot muscles. It lies in the middle of the sole, immediately superior to the plantar aponeurosis and inferior to the tendon of Flexor Digitorum Longus.
The flexor digitorum brevis is an intrinsic muscle of the foot. It is located within the first (most superficial) plantar muscle layer of the foot, between the plantar fascia and the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus.
The flexor digitorum brevis muscle originates in the calcaneus (heel bone) and the plantar fascia (the fascia in the sole of the foot). It then inserts into the middle phalanges, which are the...
Flexor digitorum brevis is a broad muscle located deeply in sole of the foot. Along with the abductor hallucis and abductor digiti minimi muscles, it makes up the first layer of plantar muscles.
The flexor digitorum brevis muscle lies superficially under the plantar aponeurosis and marks the largest muscle in the central compartment. The quadratus plantae muscle runs immediately deep to it.
Interactive 3D model of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle and information on its origin, insertion, action, innervation, and blood supply.
The flexor digitorum brevis (FDB) muscle lies immediately superior to the plantar aponeurosis and inferior to the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus in the sole of the foot. Summary. origin: medial process of calcaneal tuberosity and plantar aponeurosis; insertion: sides of plantar surface of middle phalanges of 2 nd-5 th digits
The flexor digitorum brevis originates at the calcaneal tuberosity and inserts at the middle three phalanges aiding in the flexion of the second through fifth digits. The interosseous muscles which adduct the digits, originate at metatarsals three through five and also insert at the middle three phalanges.
