  18. Deep fascia of the thigh • Iliotibial tract髂胫束 laterally the deep fascia forms a thick band, from the iliac tubercle to the lateral condyle of tibial. • The fascia lata sends intermuscular septa to the linea aspera of the femur. These separate the thigh into three compartments each of which contains a group of muscles, the vessels and the nerves.

  45. Contents of the anterior fascial compartment of the leg • Anterior tibial artery胫前动脉 • Beginning: Arises from the popliteai artery at the lower border of popliteus. It passes forwards above the interosseous membrane, and turns downwards on the anterior surface of that membrane with the deep peroneal nerve. • Ending: In front of ankle joint becomes the dorsalis pedis a. • The anterior tibial veins胫前静脉are closely applied to the artery.

  50. Injury to the common peroneal nerve • The common fibular nerve may be severed during fracture of the fibula neck or severely stretched when the knee joint is injured of dislocated. • Severance of the common fibular n. results in paralysis of all muscles in the anterior and lateral compartments of the leg. The loss of eversion of the foot and dorsiflexion of the ankle causes foot-drop. • The foot drops and the toes drag of the floor when walking. Because it is impossible to make the heel strike the ground first, the patient has a high stepping (‘steppage”) gait, raising the foot as high as necessary to keep the toes from hitting the ground.
