Common Fibular Nerve
anterior leg compartment and intrinsic dorsal foot
deep fibular nerve supplies all muscles of which leg/foot compartments? (2)
deep fibular nerve
dives deep through proximal leg and enters anterior leg compartment, runs inferiorly within anterior leg compartment (next to interosseus membrane)
superficial fibular nerve and deep fibular nerve
after crossing fibula in lateral leg compartment the common fibular nerve divides into
common fibular nerve
a terminal branch of the sciatic nerve that runs inferiorly along superior-lateral border of popliteal fossa, follows tendon of biceps femoris and crosses to lateral side of knee joint, wraps around lateral side of proximal leg by crossing superficial to neck of fibula
lateral leg compartment
common fibular nerve enters which leg compartment?
tibialis anterior, extensor digitorum longus, extensor hallucis longus, fibularis tertius, extensor digitorum brevis, and extensor hallucis brevis
muscles innervated by deep fibular nerve (6)
fibularis longus and fibularis brevis muscles
muscles supplied by the superficial fibular nerve (2)
superficial fibular nerve
runs inferiorly down leg in lateral leg compartment
lateral leg compartment
superficial fibular nerve supplies muscles of which leg compartment?
