Its proximal attachment is ASIS and distally attaches onto the medial condyle of the tibia (pes anserine). Innervated by the femoral nerve. It does hip flexion, abduction and lateral rotation of the hip along with knee flexion and medial rotation.
Sartorius
The Vastus muscle's of the anterior compartments primary action is:
Knee Extension
What nerve innervates the anterior compartment of the thigh?
Femoral Nerve
What is the common distal attachment of the Sartorial, Gracilis & Semitendinosus
Pes Anserine
What artery passes under the Inguinal Ligament?
Femoral Artery
Its proximal attachment is the ischial tuberosity, and distally attaches to the posterior aspect of the medial tibial condyle, & oblique political ligament. Innervated by the tibial division of the sciatic nerve. It acts in hip extension, knee flexion and internal rotation of the leg.
Semimembranosus
What 2 actions does adductor Magnus do?
Adduction & Extension of the Thigh
The tibial division of sciatic innervates what thigh compartment?
Posterior
What is the common proximal attachment of the hamstrings?
Ishial Tuberosity
What artery is the main blood supply for the medial compartment?
Obturator Artery
It's proximal attachment is body and inferior ramus of the pubis (near pubic symphysis) and distally attaches to the upper medial surface of tibia (pes anserine). Innervated by Obturator Nerve.
Gracilis
Which Quad muscle does both hip flexion and knee extension?
Rectus Femoris
Which muscle is innervated by Femoral OR Obturator nerve?
Pectineus
What are the attachments of the Rectus Femoris?
AIIS
Patellar tendon on tibial tuberosity
The femoral artery is a branch off of what artery?
External Illiac
Has innervation from Obturator & Tibial division of sciatic
Adductor Magnus
Which adductor muscle only does hip adduction?
Adductor Longus
Which muscle has innervations from both tibial & common fibular divisions from sciatic nerve
Biceps Femoris
The pectineus goes form the superior ramus of the pubis to the distal attachment of:
Pectineal line of the femur
What are the 2 branches of femoral artery?
Deep femoral & popliteal
Proximally attaches to the body pubis and distally attaches to the medial 1/3 of medial lip of line aspera. Innervated by obturator nerve & Does hip adduction.
Adductor Longus
Which muscle does hip extension, knee flexion and lateral rotation of the thigh?
What 5 thigh muscles are innervated by the Obturator Nerve?
Pectineus
Adductor Longus
Adductor Brevis
Adductor Magnus
Gracilis
What are the proximal and distal attachments of the long & short heads of the biceps femoris?
Distal: Fibular head, lateral collateral ligament, crural fascia
What are 5 contents of the femoral triangle?
- femoral nerve
- femoral artery
- deep femoral artery
- femoral vein
- great saphenous vein
