Sartorius muscle. Muscles of the right leg, viewed from the front. ( Rectus femoris removed to reveal the vastus intermedius .) The sartorius muscle ( / sɑːrˈtɔːriəs /) is the longest muscle in the human body. [2] It is a long, thin, superficial muscle that runs down the length of the thigh in the anterior compartment.
Pes anserinus (leg) Muscles of the gluteal and posterior femoral regions. Area of pes anserinus is encircled at bottom. Sartorius, gracilis, semitendinosus and semimembranosus are labeled at bottom left. Pes anserinus (" goose foot") refers to the conjoined tendons of three muscles of the thigh. Pes means 'foot' in Latin.
The anterior superior iliac spine ( ASIS) is a bony projection of the iliac bone, and an important landmark of surface anatomy. It refers to the anterior extremity of the iliac crest of the pelvis. It provides attachment for the inguinal ligament, and the sartorius muscle. [1] The tensor fasciae latae muscle attaches to the lateral aspect of ...
Muscle architecture is the physical arrangement of muscle fibers at the macroscopic level that determines a muscle's mechanical function. There are several different muscle architecture types including: parallel, pennate and hydrostats. Force production and gearing vary depending on the different muscle parameters such as muscle length, fiber ...
The saphenous nerve ( long or internal saphenous nerve) is the largest cutaneous branch of the femoral nerve. It is derived from the lumbar plexus (L3-L4). It is a strictly sensory nerve, and has no motor function. It commences in the proximal (upper) thigh and travels along the adductor canal. Upon exiting the adductor canal, the saphenous ...
Femoral nerve. The lumbar plexus and its branches. (Femoral labeled at bottom left.) Femoral sheath laid open to show its three compartments. (Femoral nerve visible in yellow.) The femoral nerve is a nerve in the thigh that supplies skin on the upper thigh and inner leg, and the muscles that extend the knee.
The adductor canal extends from the apex of the femoral triangle to the adductor hiatus. It is an intermuscular cleft situated on the medial aspect of the middle third of the anterior compartment of the thigh, and has the following boundaries: medial wall - sartorius. Posterior wall - adductor longus and adductor magnus. Anterior- vastus medialis.
The lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh (also called the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve) is a cutaneous nerve of the thigh. It originates from the dorsal divisions of the second and third lumbar nerves from the lumbar plexus. It passes under the inguinal ligament to reach the thigh. It supplies sensation to the skin on the lateral part of the ...
