Above, it is separated fromthe sheath of the perforans tendon ( great sesamoid sheath )by a membranous partition; below, it passes to the attachmentof the perforans tendon to the semilunar crest of the os pedis.(b) There is but one tendon sheath in the foot,—the sheathcommon to the two flexor tendons (great sesamoid sheath).
