Fig. 617.âSuperficial Groups of the Posterior Muscles of the Right Leg, First Portion : Gastrocnemius Muscle, constituting the Two Superficial Heads of the *Triceps Sur^ Muscle.^ Of the deep fascia of the leg, the lower portion of the superficial layer, which binds down the tendo Achillis, and the deep layer, which passes from side to side between the superficial and the deep posterior muscles of the leg, have been reiained. The plantaris muscle and its tendon are partially visible. ; The author divides the posterior muscles of the leg into three groups or layers, the first, most superficial, consisting of the gastroc- nemius muscle ; the second consisting of the plantaris and soleus muscles; and the third, deepest, consisting of the popliteus, flexor longus J I'^v ' '''^'""' l""Eus digitorum pedis (or flexor perforans), and tibialis posticus muscles. This arrancement appears a very artificial one, and I have therefore adhered to the arrangement usually adopted by English anatomists, according to which the muscles are grouped in two layers only : a superficial, consisting of the gastrocnemius, soleus, and plantaris muscles ; and a deep, consisting of the muscles already ""'""'â "â 'â' -s ma
