The medial border of the anatomical snuff box is the extensor pollicis longus tendon. The lateral border is made of tendons from two muscles: the extensor pollicis brevis and the abductor pollicis longus.

The ICD-9 code for extensor pollicis longus tendon reconstruction is 83.12. This code specifically refers to the repair of tendon(s) in the hand and fingers.

The tendon that bounds the anatomical snuff box medially is the tendon of the extensor pollicis longus muscle.
The anatomical snuffbox is bordered by the tendons of the extensor pollicis longus and extensor pollicis brevis on the ulnar and radial sides, respectively, and the abductor pollicis longus tendon forms part of its floor. One muscle that does not make up the anatomical snuffbox is the flexor pollicis longus, as it is not involved in the extension of the thumb and lies on the volar side of the forearm. Therefore, while the snuffbox is significant for the tendons involved in thumb extension, the flexor pollicis longus is not part of this structure.

Some foot tendons include the Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone, the peroneal tendons which help stabilize the foot and ankle, and the extensor and flexor tendons which control movement of the toes.
The dorsalis pedis artery pulse can be palpated readily lateral to the extensor hallucis longus tendon (or medially to the extensor digitorum tendons) on the dorsal surface of the foot, distal to the dorsal most prominence of the navicular bone which serves as a reliable landmark for palpation.
Pollicis refers to the muscles or structures associated with the thumb. There are various muscles in the hand and forearm that have "pollicis" in their name, such as the abductor pollicis brevis and flexor pollicis longus, which are important for thumb movement and function.
Dorsi flexion and eversion are its main actions. I just can't justify this your question.
The abductor pollicis brevis tendon in the hand helps to move the thumb away from the palm, allowing for better grip and dexterity.
