Synonyms for this nerve include the anterior tibial nerve, which runs parallel to the deep fibular artery and supplies the muscles of the anterior compartment of the leg; the anterior nerve of the leg, which is a branch of the sciatic nerve and merges with the deep fibular nerve to innervate the extensor digitorum longus muscle in the leg; and the deep peroneal nerve, which is derived from the common peroneal nerve and travels through the anterior compartment of the leg before branching into the dorsal foot. Regardless of the name, the deep fibular nerve plays a critical role in maintaining proper foot and ankle function.
