    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extensor_digitorum_longus...

    It arises from the lateral condyle of the tibia; from the upper three-quarters of the anterior surface of the body of the fibula; from the upper part of the interosseous membrane; from the deep surface of the fascia; and from the intermuscular septa between it and the tibialis anterior on the medial, and the peroneal muscles on the lateral side.

  3. Fibularis longus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_longus

    In human anatomy, the fibularis longus (also known as peroneus longus) is a superficial muscle in the lateral compartment of the leg. It acts to tilt the sole of the foot away from the midline of the body ( eversion ) and to extend the foot downward away from the body ( plantar flexion ) at the ankle .

  4. Fibularis brevis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_brevis

    In human anatomy, the fibularis brevis (or peroneus brevis) is a muscle that lies underneath the fibularis longus within the lateral compartment of the leg.It acts to tilt the sole of the foot away from the midline of the body (eversion) and to extend the foot downward away from the body at the ankle (plantar flexion).

  5. Fibularis muscles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_muscles

    The fibularis muscles are highly variable. Several variants are occasionally present, including the peroneus digiti minimi and the peroneus quartus. [2] The quartus is more closely associated with the tendons of the extensor digitorum longus and may send a small tendon to the fifth (or little) toe.

  6. Semitendinosus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semitendinosus_muscle

    The semitendinosus, remarkable for the great length of its tendon of insertion, is situated at the posterior and medial aspect of the thigh.. It arises from the lower and medial impression on the upper part of the tuberosity of the ischium, by a tendon common to it and the long head of the biceps femoris; it also arises from an aponeurosis which connects the adjacent surfaces of the two ...

  7. Cuboid bone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuboid_bone

    Only one muscle is attached to the cuboid bone; the tibialis posterior.The tibialis posterior inserts to the under surface of the cuboid bone. [2] While the flexor hallucis brevis arises, by a pointed tendinous process, from the medial part of the under surface of the cuboid bone, from the contiguous portion of the lateral cuneiform bone, and from the prolongation of the tendon of the tibialis ...

  8. Flexor hallucis longus muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flexor_hallucis_longus_muscle

    The flexor hallucis longus is situated on the fibular side of the leg. It arises from the inferior two-thirds of the posterior surface of the body of the fibula, with the exception of 2.5 cm at its lowest part; from the lower part of the interosseous membrane; from an intermuscular septum between it and the peroneus muscles, laterally, and from the fascia covering the tibialis posterior, medially.

  9. Fibularis tertius - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibularis_tertius

    In human anatomy, the fibularis tertius (also known as the peroneus tertius) is a muscle in the anterior compartment of the leg. It acts to tilt the sole of the foot away from the midline of the body ( eversion ) and to pull the foot upward toward the body ( dorsiflexion ).
