The superficial branch of the medial plantar joins the dorsalis pedis and the dorsal first metatarsal medially whereas peroneal proximally and the lateral plantar artery distally join the rete formed by the anterior malleolar and the proximal tarsal and arcuate arteries.

The ball and socket hip joint provides movements on all three perpendicular axes including flexion and extension medial and lateral rotation abduction and adduction. Branches plantar digital arteries. The veins of the foot circulate oxygen depleted blood from the tissues back to the heart.

Gives off dorsal metatarsal arteries that run in the 2nd 3rd and 4th intermetatarsal spaces.
