Arcuate artery of the foot
The arcuate artery of the foot (metatarsal artery) arises from dorsalis pedis a little anterior to the lateral tarsal artery, specifically over the naviculocuneiform joint; it passes lateralward, over the bases of the lateral four metatarsal bones, beneath the tendons of the extensor digitorum brevis, its direction being influenced by its point of origin; and it terminates in the lateral tarsal artery. It communicates with the plantar arteries through the perforating arteries of the foot. It is not present in all individuals.
