The anterior lateral malleolar artery a branch of the anterior tibial artery.
2.
Here it is bound down by the flexor retinaculum in company with the posterior tibial artery.
3.
Its proximal and distal arterial supply consists of perforating branches of the posterior tibial artery and fibular artery.
4.
Blood for the compartment is supplied by the anterior tibial artery, which runs between the tibialis anterior and extensor digitorum longus muscles.
5.
Like most deep veins in legs, anterior tibial veins are accompanied by the homonym artery, the anterior tibial artery, along its course.
6.
On the back of the knee the popliteal artery runs through the popliteal fossa to the popliteal muscle where it divides into posterior tibial arteries.
7.
The artery branch of the posterior tibial artery, at its initial ( or superior ) segment, winds around the neck of the fibula and joins patellar network
8.
The posterior tibial artery, tibial nerve, and tendons of the tibialis posterior, flexor digitorum longus, and flexor hallucis longus muscles travel in a bundle through the tarsal tunnel.
9.
The pressures in each foot's posterior tibial artery and dorsalis pedis artery are measured with the higher of the two values used as the ABI for that leg.
10.
The anatomical basis of Achilles's death is more likely to have been injury to his posterior tibial artery behind the medial malleolus, in between the tendons of the flexor digitorum longus and the posterior tibial vein.
