The Extensor longus digitorum arises from the outer tuberosityof the tibia, from the head and upper thi-ee-fourths of the fibula, fromthe mterosseous membrane, and from the deep fascia. Below, it dividesinto four tendons, which pass beneath the annular ligament, to beinserted into the second and thii-d phalanges of the fom lesser mode of insertion of the extensor tendons, both in the hand andin the foot, is remarkable, each tendon spreads into a broad aponeu-rosis over the first phalanx ; this aponeurosis divides into three slips,the middle one is inserted into the base of the second phalanx, andthe two lateral slips are continued onwards, to b
