Extensor Distal part of the lateral As the fiber bundles extend distally, they Deep peroneal
digitorum brevis and superior surfaces of become grouped into four bellies. Those fibers
the calcaneus and the apex of the most medial and largest belly are
of the inferior extensor known as extensor hallucis brevis. The tendon
retinaculum of this muscle inserts onto the base of the first
metatarsal. The remaining fiber bundles have
more variable insertions. The second toe fibers
usually insert onto the middle dorsal aspect of
the base of the proximal phalanx and are
often united with the long extensor tendon.
The three more lateral tendons are usually
fused with the lateral margins of the corre-
sponding long extensor tendons near the bases
of the respective middle phalanges and usually
extend to the bases of the corresponding
proximal phalanges.
Flexor Medial process of the tuber Tendons of the short (brevis) flexors pass Surface near the
digitorum calcanei, posterior third of superficial to those of the long flexor into medial edge of the
the plantar aponeurosis, the osteofibrous canals on the flexor surface muscle
and medial and lateral of the digits. On the proximal phalanx of
intermuscular septa each toe, the tendon of the short flexor
divides and forms an opening through
which the tendon of the long flexor passes.
The tendons of the short flexor insert onto
the base of the middle phalanx
