The fibular or peroneal artery is one of the three arteries of the leg, along with the anterior and posterior tibial arteries.
Gross anatomy
Origin and course
- arises from the tibioperoneal trunk approximately 2.5 cm distal to popliteus and passes obliquely to the fibula, descending along its medial crest either in a fibrous canal between tibialis posterior and flexor hallucis longus or within flexor hallucis longus
- reaching the inferior tibiofibular syndesmosis, it divides into calcaneal branches that ramify on the lateral and posterior surfaces of the calcaneus
Branches
- muscular branches
- nutrient artery
- perforating branches
- communicating branch
- calcaneal branches
