KROK 1 2007 – Question 68 · KROK (Medicine) · Human Anatomy

A man with cut wound of his right foot sole was admitted to the hospital ward. The patient has limited elevation of the lateral foot edge. In course of wound management the injury of a muscle tendon was revealed. What muscle is injured?

  1. A. Short peroneal
  2. B. Long extensor muscle of toes
  3. C. Long peroneal
  4. D. Anterior tibial
  5. E. Triceps muscle of crus
Hint

Raising the outer edge of the foot is pronation; think which muscle's tendon passes behind the lateral malleolus and then crosses the sole in a groove of the cuboid.
