THE ifCSCLES OF THE FOOT. 229 THE SYNOVIAL SHEATHS OF THE FOOT. Like the tendons of ihc muscles of the forearm, the muscles of the leg run in synovial sheaths as they pass into the foot. The retinacula of these synovial sheaths are formed partly by rein- forcements of the deep fascia and partly by processes of the ligaments of the icxA. Upon the dorsum of the foot (Fig. 315) are situated three synovial sheaths; one for the tibialis anterior, one for the extensor hallucis longus, and a common one for the tendons of the ExUnsor dif^itorum loni^us -r Peromtus 111 Extensor hallucis longus J- ibula m. prroiurus >" hrexis \ m. ptro- ^ \ ItitUS hnpjts Tendon-sheath oj extensor digiiorum longus and f>eronerii>r peroneal retinaculum

They commence in the leg and extend for a variable distance upon the dorsum of the fcK>t. Their retinaculum is chieflv ^formed bv a rein- torcement of the dorsal fascia of the fcH)t, the cruciale (autcrior annular) ligament, which arises irom the outer surface of the calcaneus, where it is adherent to the interosseous talocalcaneal hgament, and divides into a distal and a proximal band which form almost a right an-le with each other (Fig. ;,o6). The proximal band runs to the internal malleolus, the distal to the dorsal surfaces of the navicular and internal cuneiform bones, and when the latter band is prolonged
