“…Four of the limbs studied (9.09%) had only three tendons. Three of the limbs studied (6.81%) had five tendons [18]. Clinically, the knowledge of anatomical variation of flexor digitorum brevis is necessary for surgical and diagnostic purpose because understanding about muscle attachment of the foot may assist in designing of surgical procedures such as tendon transfer, biomechanical modeling of foot, reconstruction of heel pad, correction of flexible claw and hammer toe deformity.…”

Background: Flexor digitorum brevis is an intrinsic muscle of the sole of foot that lies immediately deep to central part of plantar aponeurosis.The flexor digitorum brevis divided into four tendons for lateral four toes. Each tendon is divided into two slips at base of proximal phalanx, to allow the flexor digitorum longus tendons and get inserted on both sides of the shaft of middle phalanx. It helps to reinforce arch of foot by flexing the proximal interphalangeal and metatarsophalangeal joints of the lateral four toes. Flexor digitorum brevis muscular flap is used in the reconstruction of the heel pad and it is frequently used to correct crossover toe deformity so architecture of the foot is important because it may help in the surgical procedures during correction of above deformities.

По данным литературы, в 9,09% случаев сухожилие в области V пальца отсутствует [13], возможно наличие в составе мышцы пяти сухожилий (6,81%), а также шести сухожилий (2,27%). Функция данной мышцы -разгибание II-V (II-IV) пальцев, а также оттягивание II-IV (II-V) пальцев латерально.…”

Relevance. Facial paralysis is a common neurological illnesses of the maxillofacial region. Gold standard of dynamic correction of permanent facial paralysis is gracilis muscle transfer. However, using this flap is impractical or impossible in some cases. There are few domestic and international publications about extensor digitorum brevis muscle for facial reanimation surgery.Purpose. Assessment of muscle variability on the dorsum of the foot; analysis of blood supply and innervation of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle.Materials and methods. Operations performed on 10 unclaimed corpses: dissection of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle, as well as the blood vessels and nerves of the dorsum of the foot. The legal and ethical requirements for such studies were observed planning the design of the study and during work.Results. As a result, in 80% of cases, was found a typical anatomy of muscles, blood vessels, and nerves in the dorsum of the foot. In 10% was found a typical anatomy of muscles and nerves, but there was no lateral tarsal artery – the branch of the dorsal artery of the foot. Blood supply to the extensor digitorum brevis muscle performed by perforating branches of the peroneal artery. In 10% was found subtotal atrophy and fibrous degeneration of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle.Conclusions. The use of the extensor digitorum brevis muscle is a perspective method for the treatment of facial paralysis. Harvesting of this flap is complicated.

“…Likewise, the dorsalis pedis artery is also located between the extensor hallucis longus tendon and extensor digitorum longus tendon. DPA penetrates the proximal part of the great toe (Sirasanagandla et al, 2013). Nevertheless, various conditions do not direct the position and distribution of this artery precise, for example, hypoplastic of the anterior tibial artery and thromboangiitis obliterans of the chronic cigarette smoker.…”

The dorsalis pedis artery (DPA) is a vital artery that supplies the foot and ankle area which is clinically important for palpating when taking the pulse. This research was performed on fresh cadaveric dissection of 40 legs by injecting paint into popliteal artery for tracking the dorsalis pedis artery and its branches. The present research revealed that the Thai population has an anatomical variation and different location of the DPA and exact location of DPA for estimating the location of the DPA and may have clinical implications. The statistically descriptive analysis elucidated the distances of the DPA to the lateral malleolus and medial malleolus which were 51.48 ± 7.27 mm and 42.62 ± 11.40 mm, respectively. The distance of the extensor hallucis longus (EHL) to the DPA was 14.29 ± 4.11 mm. The length of the dorsalis pedis artery which measured from artery on intermalleolar line to its dipping in 1st intermetatarsal space to be 122.03 ± 21.07 mm. The arcuate loop which is anastomosis U-loop of lateral tarsal arteries of the DPA was found 55 % in Thais population. There were no statistically significant differences of all parameters between the side and sex in DPA consideration. An understanding of the variations of the anatomical vasculature of DPA is essential for precise clinical assessment because exact anatomical knowledge and location can contribute to the pulse taking and be applied in surgical procedure.
