The quadriceps group of muscles is assisted by the anterior digital extensor (extensor pedis) peroneus tertius and tibialis anticus (flexor metatarsi) muscles.
Stump of common tendon of extensor longus andperoneus tertius.
The flexors of the toes, the tibialis posterior, and the peroneus longus are shortened to a less degree.
Treatment is conducted on the same lines as in pes calcaneus, and the valgus may be controlled by implanting the peroneus brevis into the navicular.
In other cases there is no history of injury, but whenever the foot is everted the tendon of the peroneus longus is liable to be jerked forwards out of its groove, sometimes with an audible snap.
The tendon, which at the level of the inferior part of the leg succeeds to the fleshy body, passes in front of the tarsus, the principal metatarsal, and receives the tendon of the peroneus brevis which we will describe later on.
The peroneus longus arises from the external tuberosity of the tibia; towards the middle of the leg it is replaced by a tendon.
Muscles of the External Region In man, two muscles constitute this region; they are the peroneus longus and peroneus brevis.
According to some authors, it represents the peroneus tertius; but that muscle is situated on the outer side of the common extensor of the toes; and here the portion with which it has been compared is placed on the inside.
In the lower half of the leg, it is also in relation, on the inner side, with the tibialis anticus; but behind it is separated from the peroneus longus by the external surface of the shaft and inferior extremity of the tibia.
In the dog and the cat this muscle is to be seen in the space limited behind by the peroneus longus and in front by the tibialis anticus.
The superficial muscles iliotibialis, sartorius, gastrocnemius and peroneus longus have been removed, x 1.
On the tibiotarsus, the peroneus and gastrocnemius muscles were measured.
When expressed as a percentage of the weight of the bird, the peroneus has much the same relative weight in all but one of the species, whereas the gastrocnemius varies much.
The following muscles have been removed: extensor iliotibialis lateralis, extensor iliotibialis anticus, gastrocnemius pars externa and pars interna, and peroneus longus.
No serious changes are present except in theperoneus longus.
Contraction can be induced in the extensor longus hallucis, extensor longus digitorum, and peroneus brevis; but reaction is doubtful in the case of the tibialis anticus and peroneus longus.
In the anterior tibial and peroneal groups the faradic irritability is much diminished, that in the peroneus longus being the lowest of all.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "peroneus" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
