Peronseus Brevis. — The peronseus brevis arises by fleshy fibres from the distal two-thirds of the lateral surface of the shaft of the fibula, and from an intermuscular septum along its anterior border. Its tendon grooves the back of the lateral malleolus and the lateral side of the calcaneus, invested by a synovial sheath common to it and the peronseus longus, and is inserted into the tuberosity and dorsal surface of the base of the fifth metatarsal bone. The peronseus longus and brevis may be fused together, or additional slips may be present, as peronseus accessorius, peronseus digiti quinti, peronseocalcaneus externus, and peronaeocuboideus.
