| superficial branch of the lateral plantar nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Mostly cutaneous branch to skin of small and lateral half of fourth toes and lateral side of sole of foot, but also supplies the flexor digiti minimi brevis muscle and the most lateral dorsal and plantar interosseous muscles. Synonym: ramus superficialis nervi plantaris lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial branch of the medial plantar artery | <anatomy, artery> Gives rise to superficial digital arteries of medial three toes. Synonym: ramus superficialis arteriae plantaris medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep branch of the lateral plantar nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Motor branch of lateral plantar nerve supplying lumbricals 2-4, plantar and dorsal interossei, and the adductor hallucis muscles. Synonym: ramus profundus nervi plantaris lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep branch of the medial plantar artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch running deep to abductor hallucis, supplying it and the flexor hallucis brevis muscle deep to the artery and the skin of the medial side of the distal foot. Synonym: rami profundi arteriae circumflexae femoris medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep plantar branch of dorsalis pedis artery | <anatomy, artery> Deep plantar branch of arcuate artery or its first metatarsal artery branch which penetrates the foot between first and second metatarsal bones to anastomose with the termination of the plantar arterial arch.

| lateral plantar artery | <anatomy, artery> Larger of the two terminal branches of the posterior tibial; distribution, forms the plantar arch and through it supplies the sole of the foot and plantar surfaces of the toes; anastomoses, medial plantar, dorsalis pedis. Synonym: arteria plantaris lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral plantar nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the two terminal branches of the tibial nerve; it courses along the lateral side of the sole, dividing into superficial and deep branches; it supplies the skin of the lateral aspect of the sole and the lateral one and one-half toes; it innervates the intrinsic muscles of the plantar part of the foot with the exception of the abductor hallucis and the flexor digitorum brevis; its distribution in the foot is very similar to that of the ulnar nerve in the hand. Synonym: nervus plantaris lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
