. Anatomy, descriptive and applied. Anatomy. 246 SPECIAL ANATOMV OF THE SKELETON of a deep groove on its under surface, for the tendon of the Peroneus longus muscle. It presents for examination six surfaces, three articular and three nonarticular. The nonarticular surfaces are the dorsal, plantar, and external. The dorsal surface, directed upward and outward, is rough, for the attachment of numerous ligaments. The plantar surface presents in front a deep groove, the peroneal groove (sulcus m. peroiiei loncji), which runs obliquely from without, forward and inward; it lodges the tendon of the P


. Anatomy, descriptive and applied. Anatomy. 246 SPECIAL ANATOMV OF THE SKELETON of a deep groove on its under surface, for the tendon of the Peroneus longus muscle. It presents for examination six surfaces, three articular and three nonarticular. The nonarticular surfaces are the dorsal, plantar, and external. The dorsal surface, directed upward and outward, is rough, for the attachment of numerous ligaments. The plantar surface presents in front a deep groove, the peroneal groove (sulcus m. peroiiei loncji), which runs obliquely from without, forward and inward; it lodges the tendon of the Peroneus longus, and is bounded behind by a prominent ridge, to which is attached the long calcaneocuboid ligament. The ridge terminates externally in an eminence (tuberositas ossi-s cuboidei), the surface of which presents a convex facet, for articulation with the sesamoid bone of the tendon contained in the groove. The surface of bone behind the groove is rough, for the attachment of the short plantar ligament, a few fibres of origin of the Flexor brevis hallucis, and a fasciculus from the tendon of the Tibialis posticus. The external surface, the smallest and narrowest of the three, presents a deep notch formed by the commencement of the peroneal groove.
