Anatomy There are four deep transverse metatarsal ligaments which link all the metatarsals. They attach on the dorsal surface of the head of the metatarsals from one to two, two to three, three to four and four to five. The ligament also blends with the planter ligaments of the adjacent metatarsophalangeal joints. Functions They enable

Anatomy Course Branches of the maxillary artery that arise in the infratemporal fossa. Usually travels in conjunction with the deep temporal nerves as it rises between the pericranium and temporalis muscle. Anastamoses exists between it and the middle temporal artery. Supply Mainly the temporalis muscle. Interested in taking our award-winning Pocket Anatomy app for a

Anatomy Course Branch of the common peroneal nerve that descends in the deep compartments of the leg on the interosseous membrane. Descends down the leg with the anterior tibial artery until it reaches the ankle, where it gives off its terminal branches. Supply Motor innervation to the deep muscles of the leg and muscles of

Anatomy Course Branch of the medical aspect of the ulnar artery. Proceeds around the hook of the hamate in order to reach the anastomotic network of the deep palmar arch. Supply Supplies the deeper components of the palm. Interested in taking our award-winning Pocket Anatomy app for a test drive?

Anatomy Course A complex network of vessels that originate mostly from the radial artery but also from the ulnar artery via its deep palmar branch. It is situated on the base of the metacarpals bones. Supply Supplies the deeper components of the palm. Interested in taking our award-winning Pocket Anatomy app for a test drive?

Anatomy Course Its origin is highly variable but receives many vessels as it rises up the leg alongside its corresponding artery until it eventually joins the femoral vein and the inferior border of the ischial tuberosity.
