anterior tibial

The compartment of the leg is supplied by anterior tibial artery.

In human anatomy, there are two anterior tibial veins.

The anterior tibial vein is a vein in the lower leg.

It is accompanied by a deep vein, the anterior tibial vein, along its course.

The branches of the anterior tibial artery are:

Communication branch to anterior tibial artery.

The proximal head and the epiphysis are supplied by a branch of the anterior tibial artery.

It arises from the anterior tibial artery, as soon as that vessel has passed through the interosseous space.

It arises at the anterior aspect of the ankle joint and is a continuation of the anterior tibial artery.

Its origin is defined by the junction of the posterior tibial vein and anterior tibial vein.

The anterior tibial vessels and deep peroneal nerve lie between it and the Tibialis anterior.

The posterior tibial recurrent artery, an inconstant branch, is given off from the anterior tibial before that vessel passes through the interosseous space.

The tibialis anterior overlaps the anterior tibial vessels and deep peroneal nerve in the upper part of the leg.

The anterior tibial veins drain the ankle joint, knee joint, tibiofibular joint, and the anterior portion of the lower leg.

The anterior tibial nerves of dogs were cut to determine which of fascicular, interfascicular and epineural suture techniques were best.

The termination of the popliteal artery is its bifurcation into the anterior tibial artery and posterior tibial artery.

Its proximal and distal arterial supply consists of perforating branches of the anterior tibial artery and fibular artery.

It lies at first on the lateral side of the anterior tibial artery, then in front of it, and again on its lateral side at the ankle-joint.

The tibia derives its arterial blood supply from two sources: A nutrient artery, as the main source, and periosteal vessels derived from the anterior tibial artery.

The anterior tibial artery of the lower limb carries blood to the anterior compartment of the leg and dorsal surface of the foot, from the popliteal artery.

Like most deep veins in legs, anterior tibial veins are accompanied by the homonym artery, the anterior tibial artery, along its course.

The two anterior tibial veins ascend in the interosseous membrane between the tibia and fibula and unite with the posterior tibial veins to form the popliteal vein.

Tibial-fibular trunk, also tibial-peroneal trunk is the posterior tibial artery distal to the origin of the anterior tibial artery and proximal to the origin of the fibular artery.

Anterior Tibial Tendon Transfer (needed in 20% of cases) - where the tendon is moved from the first ray (toe) to the third ray in order to release the inward traction on the foot.

In the lower leg, the anterior tibial enters the extensor compartment near the upper border of the interosseus membrane to descend between the tibialis anterior and the extensor hallucis longus.
