The sciatic nerve andgreat saphenous vein are also visible. The skin,superficial fascia, fascia lata and crural fasciahas been removed posteriorly to demonstratethe course of the popliteal vessels, tibialnerve and common peroneal nerve. Medially,the semitendinosus and semimembranosusmuscles have been sectioned to demonstratethe superior medial genicular artery and themedial head of the gastrocnemius. Distally,the medial gastrocnemius itself has beensectioned to expose the popliteus muscle andthe tendon of the plantaris muscle.The course of the popliteal artery and vein canbe traced through the fossa to the passage of thevessels deep to soleus. They are accompaniedby the tibial nerve; with the lateral head ofthe gastrocnemius removed several muscularbranches of the tibial nerve are visible in thefossa, as is the medial sural cutaneous nerve(and the distalmost part of the lateral suralcutaneous nerve). Running in parallel, thecommon peroneal descends and passes laterallyover the exposed soleus muscle to the neckof the fibula just distal to the attachment ofthe biceps femoris muscle. Deep to the bicepsfemoris, the superior lateral genicular branchcan be observed passing towards the anteriorcompartment.The distal cross-section demonstrates thecontinuation of popliteal contents and branches.The great saphenous vein, small saphenous veinand sural nerves are visible within the superficial 51
MP1830 Popliteal Fossa This 3D printed specimen preserves the distal thigh and proximal leg, dissected posteriorly to demonstrate the contents of the popliteal fossa and surrounding region. The proximal cross-section demonstrates the anterior, posterior and medial compartment muscles, with the femoral artery and vein visible within the adductor canal. The sciatic nerve and great saphenous vein are also visible. The skin, superficial fascia, and deep fascia have been removed over the popliteal fossa to expose the contents of the space. The muscular borders of the space are intact except for a window cut into the semimembranosus muscle to allow a view of the popliteal artery and vein near the adductor magnus. On the medial aspect of the window the great saphenous vein descends on the surface of the sartorius muscle. Distally the sartorius is visible joining the semitendinosus and semimembranosus muscles to form the pes anserinus. All major deep and superficial nerves and vessels of the space are visible, including the superior lateral genicular artery passing towards the anterior compartment of the thigh. Along the lateral margin the posterior aspect of iliotibial tract is visible descending to the lateral epicondyle of the tibia. The distal cross-section demonstrates the continuation of popliteal contents and branches. The great saphenous and small saphenous veins are visible within the superficial fascia, as are the medial and lateral sural cutaneous nerves. Between the muscles of the posterior, lateral, and anterior compartments are the neurovascular bundles of the leg (posterior tibial artery, veins and tibial nerve; peroneal artery and veins; anterior tibial artery, veins and deep peroneal nerve; superficial peroneal nerve).52

MP1920 Foot Superficial and deep dissection of the distal leg and foot This 3D printed specimens preserves a mixed superficial and deep dissection of the distal leg and foot. Posteriorly, the compartment muscles and neurovascular structures have been removed to isolate the tendocalcaneous and expose the body of the calcaneous. Medially, the tibialis posterior and flexor digitorum longus tendons are visible deep to the crural fascia, joined by the tendon of the flexor hallucis longus as the tendons passing deep to the flexor retinaculum (opened to demonstrate the tendon passage) to the medial foot. The adductor hallucis, medial head of the flexor hallucis brevis, and flexor digitorum brevis muscles are all exposed on the medial aspect of the foot. On the dorsum of the foot, both superior and inferior extensor retinacula are preserved, with the muscles of the anterior compartment of the leg extending to their distal attachments (including the fibularis tertius). The anterior tibial artery is exposed through to the dorsalis pedis artery. Deep to these long tendons are the extensor hallucis brevis and extensor digitorum brevis muscles, as well as the dorsal interosseous muscles. On the lateral aspect, both fibularis longus and brevis are visible deep to the crural fascia, with their tendons passing deep to both superior and inferior fibular retinacula. On the lateral margin of the foot the abductor digit minimi muscle is exposed.56
