Index 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.[1]

Anatomical terms of motion

Motion, the process of movement, is described using specific anatomical terms.

See Fibularis brevis and Anatomical terms of motion

Ankle

The ankle, the talocrural region or the jumping bone (informal) is the area where the foot and the leg meet.

See Fibularis brevis and Ankle

Avulsion injury

In medicine, an avulsion is an injury in which a body structure is torn off by either trauma or surgery (from the Latin avellere, meaning "to tear off").

See Fibularis brevis and Avulsion injury

Calcaneus

In humans and many other primates, the calcaneus (from the Latin calcaneus or calcaneum, meaning heel;: calcanei or calcanea) or heel bone is a bone of the tarsus of the foot which constitutes the heel.

Fibula

The fibula (fibulae or fibulas) or calf bone is a leg bone on the lateral side of the tibia, to which it is connected above and below.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibula

Fibular artery

In anatomy, the fibular artery, also known as the peroneal artery, supplies blood to the lateral compartment of the leg.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibular artery

Fibular retinacula

The fibular retinacula (also known as peroneal retinacula) are fibrous retaining bands that bind down the tendons of the fibularis longus and fibularis brevis muscles as they run across the side of the ankle.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibular retinacula

Fibularis longus

In human anatomy, the fibularis longus (also known as peroneus longus) is a superficial muscle in the lateral compartment of the leg. Fibularis brevis and fibularis longus are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibularis longus

Fibularis muscles

The fibularis muscles (also called peroneus muscles or peroneals) are a group of muscles in the lower leg. Fibularis brevis and fibularis muscles are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibularis muscles

Fibularis tertius

In human anatomy, the fibularis tertius (also known as the peroneus tertius) is a muscle in the anterior compartment of the leg. Fibularis brevis and fibularis tertius are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Fibularis tertius

The fifth metatarsal bone is a long bone in the foot, and is palpable along the distal outer edges of the feet.

See Fibularis brevis and Fifth metatarsal bone

The foot (feet) is an anatomical structure found in many vertebrates.

Gray's Anatomy

Gray's Anatomy is a reference book of human anatomy written by Henry Gray, illustrated by Henry Vandyke Carter and first published in London in 1858.

Jones fracture

A Jones fracture is a broken bone in a specific part of the fifth metatarsal of the foot between the base and middle part that is known for its high rate of delayed healing or nonunion.

See Fibularis brevis and Jones fracture

Lateral compartment of leg

The lateral compartment of the leg is a fascial compartment of the lower leg. Fibularis brevis and lateral compartment of leg are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Lateral compartment of leg

Schilling tendon procedure

The Schilling tendon procedure is a temporary surgical procedure developed by the former Boston Red Sox team physician William Morgan, MD to stabilize the peroneus brevis tendon so that it is prevented from anterior displacement during ankle eversion.

See Fibularis brevis and Schilling tendon procedure

Septum

In biology, a septum (Latin for something that encloses;: septa) is a wall, dividing a cavity or structure into smaller ones.

See Fibularis brevis and Septum

Subtalar joint

In human anatomy, the subtalar joint, also known as the talocalcaneal joint, is a joint of the foot.

See Fibularis brevis and Subtalar joint

Superficial fibular nerve

The superficial fibular nerve (also known as superficial peroneal nerve) is a mixed (motor and sensory) nerve that provides motor innervation to the fibularis longus and fibularis brevis muscles, and sensory innervation to skin over the antero-lateral aspect of the leg along with the greater part of the dorsum of the foot (with the exception of the first web space, which is innervated by the deep fibular nerve).

Terminologia Anatomica

Terminologia Anatomica (commonly abbreviated TA) is the international standard for human anatomical terminology.

Tibialis anterior muscle

The tibialis anterior muscle is a muscle of the anterior compartment of the lower leg. Fibularis brevis and tibialis anterior muscle are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Tibialis anterior muscle

Tibialis posterior muscle

The tibialis posterior muscle is the most central of all the leg muscles, and is located in the deep posterior compartment of the leg. Fibularis brevis and tibialis posterior muscle are muscles of the lower limb.

See Fibularis brevis and Tibialis posterior muscle
