Plantar metatarsal arteries

Arteriae metatarseae plantares

  • Latin synonym: Arteriae metatarsales plantares

Definition

IMAIOS

Near their points of division, each plantar metatarsal artery sends upward an anterior perforating branch (Plantar metatarsal arteries) to join the corresponding dorsal metatarsal artery.
