| musculus tibialis anterior | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, upper two-thirds of lateral surface of tibia, interosseous membrane, and intermuscular septum; insertion, medial cuneiform and base of first metatarsal; action, dorsiflexion and inversion of foot; nerve supply, deep peroneal. Synonym: musculus tibialis anterior, anterior tibial muscle, musculus tibialis anticus. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: musculus tibialis anterior, anterior tibial muscle, musculus tibialis anticus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus tibialis gracilis | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, lateral supracondylar ridge; insertion, medial margin of tendo achillis and deep fascia of ankle; action, traditionally described as plantar flexion of foot; many investigators now believe the plantaris muscle to be primarily a proprioceptive organ; nerve supply, tibial nerve. Synonym: musculus plantaris, musculus tibialis gracilis, plantar muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus tibialis posterior | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, soleal line and posterior surface of tibia, the head and shaft of the fibula between the medial crest and interosseous border, and the posterior surface of interosseous membrane; insertion, navicular, three cuneiform, cuboid, and second, third, and fourth metatarsal bones; action, plantar flexion and inversion of foot; nerve supply, tibial.

| nervus tibialis | <anatomy, nerve> The medial terminal branch of the sciatic nerve. The tibial nerve fibres originate in lumbar and sacral spinal segments (l4 to s2). They supply motor and sensory innervation to parts of the calf and foot. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nodus tibialis anterior | A small inconstant lymph node in front of the interosseous membrane along the upper part of the anterior tibial vessels. Synonym: nodus tibialis anterior, anterior tibial node. (05 Mar 2000) |
