The medial plantar artery travels beneath the abductor hallucis muscle (ABHM) and deep within the intermuscular septum; (B) The medial plantar artery (arrow) divides into a superficial (SMPA) branch and a deep (DMPA) branch. The deep division branches into a medial (MDMPA) and lateral (LDMPA) branch deep in the abductor hallucis muscle.
