Joints and ligaments · FootDorsal cuneocuboid ligamentLigamentum cuneocuboideum dorsaleA short band of fibres on the top of the midfoot joining the lateral cuneiform bone to the cuboid.
Joints and ligaments · FootDorsal cuneonavicular ligamentsLigamenta cuneonavicularia dorsaliaShort fibrous slips on the top of the midfoot joining the navicular bone to each of the three cuneiform bones in front of it.
Arteries · FootDorsal digital arteries of footArteriae digitales dorsales pedisFine arteries along the backs of the toes, formed where each dorsal metatarsal artery divides at a toe web.
Veins · FootDorsal digital veins of footVenae digitales dorsales pedisSmall superficial veins along the upper borders of the toes that drain the skin of the toes into the dorsal venous arch of the foot.
Joints and ligaments · FootDorsal intercuneiform ligamentsLigamenta intercuneiformia dorsaliaShort transverse bands on the top of the midfoot that tie each cuneiform bone to its neighbour.
Arteries · FootDorsal metatarsal arteriesArteriae metatarseae dorsalesFour small arteries on the back of the foot that run along the intermetatarsal spaces and divide into dorsal digital arteries for the toes.
Joints and ligaments · FootDorsal metatarsal ligamentsLigamenta metatarsea dorsaliaShort transverse bands on the top of the forefoot that join the bases of neighbouring metatarsal bones.
Veins · FootDorsal metatarsal veinsVenae metatarseae dorsalesVeins on the top of the forefoot that collect blood from the toes and drain into the dorsal venous arch of the foot.
Joints and ligaments · FootDorsal tarsometatarsal ligamentsLigamenta tarsometatarsea dorsaliaFlat fibrous bands on the upper surface of the midfoot that bind the distal row of tarsal bones to the bases of the metatarsals.
Veins · FootDorsal venous arch of footArcus venosus dorsalis pedisA superficial venous arch across the top of the foot that collects blood from the toes and gives rise to both saphenous veins.
Arteries · FootDorsalis pedis arteryArteria dorsalis pedisThe main artery on the back of the foot, continuing the anterior tibial artery from the ankle to the first intermetatarsal space.
Veins · FootFibular veinsVenae fibularesPaired deep veins of the leg that accompany the fibular artery close to the fibula and empty into the posterior tibial veins.
Veins · FootGreat saphenous veinVena saphena magnaThe long superficial vein of the lower limb, running from the inner foot up the leg and thigh to the femoral vein.
Veins · FootIntercapitular veins of footVenae intercapitulares pedisShort connecting veins that pass between the heads of the metatarsal bones, carrying blood from the sole of the foot up to the dorsal veins.
Joints and ligaments · FootIntercuneiform interosseous ligamentsLigamenta intercuneiformia interosseaShort, strong ligaments deep between the three cuneiform bones of the midfoot, joining the rough parts of their facing surfaces.
Joints and ligaments · FootIntersesamoid ligamentLigamentum intersesamoideumA short transverse band beneath the head of the first metatarsal that ties together the paired sesamoids of the great toe.
Arteries · FootLateral plantar arteryArteria plantaris lateralisThe larger terminal branch of the posterior tibial artery, crossing the sole laterally and then turning medially to form the plantar arch.
Veins · FootLateral plantar veinsVenae plantares latéralesDeep veins of the sole that accompany the lateral plantar artery and join the medial plantar veins behind the medial malleolus.
Joints and ligaments · FootLateral talocalcaneal ligamentLigamentum talocalcaneum lateraleA short, strong band on the outer side of the hindfoot linking the talus to the calcaneus across the subtalar joint.
Arteries · FootLateral tarsal arteryArteria tarsea lateralisA branch of the dorsalis pedis that arches laterally across the tarsal bones beneath the short extensor muscles of the foot.
Joints and ligaments · FootLong plantar ligamentLigamentum plantare longumThe longest ligament of the tarsus, running along the sole from the underside of the calcaneus to the cuboid and lateral metatarsal bases.
Arteries · FootMedial plantar arteryArteria plantaris medialisThe smaller terminal branch of the posterior tibial artery, running forwards along the inner border of the sole towards the great toe.
Veins · FootMedial plantar veinsVenae plantares medialesDeep veins along the medial side of the sole that accompany the medial plantar artery and help form the posterior tibial veins.
Joints and ligaments · FootMedial talocalcaneal ligamentLigamentum talocalcaneum medialeA small band on the inner side of the hindfoot running from the medial tubercle of the talus to the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus.
