Three main arteries in the leg supply blood to the foot: the peroneal (fibular) artery, the posterior tibial artery, and the anterior tibial artery. As the anterior tibial artery passes over the ...

The anterior tibial, posterior tibial, and the fibular arteries supply blood to the lower leg. These blood vessels supply oxygen and nutrients to the surrounding structures—bones, muscles and ...

Usually, the peroneal artery makes up the difference in terms of blood supply. Rarely, both the anterior and posterior tibial arteries are absent and alternative pathways are needed for blood flow.

A wire was advanced from the lateral plantar vein to the proximal posterior tibial vein adjacent to the tibial artery that would be used for arterialization in the leg. The ipsilateral common ...

By contrast, occlusion of the anterior tibial artery is often asymptomatic, as two other vessels -- the posterior tibial and peroneal arteries -- can function as alternate parallel channels to ...

Measurements of posterior tibial slope at the medial and lateral plateaus may not be reliable on traditional MRI. MRI measurements demonstrated high variability and minimal bias compared with CT ...
