The N. peroneus medialis (Fig". 130 pvi) is the smaller of the two terminal branches of the N. pero- neus ; it courses with the Art. titii- alis antica under the MM. jlexores tarsi anterior and pjosterior and sup- plies the latter. d. The N. peroneals lateralis (Fig. T 30 jd) is the larger terminal branch of the N. pjeroneus ; it passes down- wards between the heads of the M. tihialis anticus to the tendon of origin of the Flexor tarsi posterior, where it gives off two branches (Nos. i and 2) ; the nerve then unites with the i\". peroneus lateralis to form a common stem, the N. peroneus comnivnis in- ferior (Ecker). The N. peroneus lateralis g-ives off :— (i) The N. cntaneus dorai pedis lateralis (cpl), which passes to the skin of the outer side of the dorsum of the foot. (2) A second branch to the M. ex- tensor of the fourth and fifth toes. e. The N'. pjeroneus communis in- ferior (Fig". 130 p^<^^) runs on the dorsum of the foot in company with the Art. dorsalis pj^dis, underneath the MM. extensores digiti 1 and // ; it supplies several branches and then bifurcates. It g"ives off :— (i) Branches to the MM. extensor longns and fjrevis digiti Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for rea
