Abductor minimi digiti
Abductor minimi digiti - a muscle in the foot that flexes and abducts the fifth toe at the metatarsophalangeal joint and supports the lateral arch. It originates in the medial and lateral processes of the posterior calcaneal tuberosity and inserts into the lateral side of the base of the proximal phalanx of the fifth toe and the fifth metatarsal. It is innervated by the lateral planter nerve and is supplied by the lateral planter artery.
