  2. Common fibular nerve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_fibular_nerve

    The common fibular nerve is the smaller terminal branch of the sciatic nerve. The common fibular nerve has root values of L4, L5, S1, and S2. It arises from the superior angle of the popliteal fossa and extends to the lateral angle of the popliteal fossa, along the medial border of the biceps femoris.

    tibial nerve; common fibular nerve (also known as the common peroneal nerve) [3] popliteal vein; popliteal artery, a continuation of the femoral artery; small saphenous vein (termination) [3] Popliteal lymph nodes and vessels [3] It is of note that the common fibular nerve also begins at the superior angle of the popliteal fossa.

  4. Neurovascular bundle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurovascular_bundle

    The superficial peroneal nerve originates from the common peroneal nerve near the neck of the fibula and passes between the peroneus longus and brevis muscles, supplying motor branches to these muscles. The superficial branch then continues onto the dorsum of the foot to supply sensory fibers to the skin there.

    The largest nerve of the human body, the sciatic nerve, is the main branch that gives rami to the motor innervation of the muscles of the thigh, the leg, and the foot. Common peroneal nerve and its branches innervate some parts of the skin of the foot, the peroneal muscles of the leg, and the dorsal muscles of the foot.

    The sural communicating nerve (SCN) (peroneal communicating branch of the common fibular nerve) is a separate and independent nerve from both the medial and lateral sural cutaneous nerves, often arising from a common trunk of the common fibular nerve [1] [2] The primary purpose of the sural communicating branch is to provide the structural path for transferring tibial nerve fascicular ...

    These nerve groups transmit afferent (sensory) information from the scalp, neck, and shoulders to the brain. The motor branches of spinal nerves include: ansa cervicalis , dividing into a superior root, C-1, and an inferior root, C-2 and C-3, and the phrenic nerve , C-3 to C-5, the segmental nerve branches, C-1 to C-5.
