Medial Plantar

Nerve system:

Spinal

Description:

The medial plantar nerve (internal plantar nerve) is the larger of the two terminal divisions of the tibial nerve (medial and lateral plantar nerve), which accompanies the medial plantar artery. From its origin under the laciniate ligament it passes under cover of the abductor hallucis muscle, and, appearing between this muscle and the flexor digitorum brevis, gives off a proper digital plantar nerve and finally divides opposite the bases of the metatarsal bones into three common digital plantar nerves.

Anatomical Info:

Nerve Branched From:

Sciatic

Parent Branch Plexus:

Sacral Plexus

Description:

Ventral rami of l4-s3 with parts of l4 and s4 spinal nerves form the sacral plexus. it is located on the posterior wall of pelvic cavity (pelvis minor). nervi of the plexus innervate the perineal region, buttocks and the lower limb. the largest nerve of the human body, the sciatic nerve, is the main branch that gives rami to the motor innervation of the muscles of the thigh, the leg, and the foot. common peroneal nerve and its branches innervate some parts of the skin of the foot, the peroneal muscles of the leg, and the dorsal muscles of the foot.

Nerve innervates these muscles:
