Innervation Pattern of Lumbrical Muscles of the Foot in Human Fetuses.

CONCLUSIONS: This study classified innervation pattern of foot lumbricals and defined 2 new innervation types. During surgeries on foot and ankle region in neonatal and early childhood terms, awareness of the communicating branches between MPN and LPN and innervation of intrinsic muscles of the foot such as lumbricals might aid in preventing possible complications.
