which is continued
from the patella to the
tuberosity of the tibia.

Summary of Ant compt of thigh
Muscle Movements
• Anterior compartment
– Flexors of hip
• Sartorius (also abducts and
laterally rotates hip and
flexes and medially rotates
knee)
• Iliopsoas
• Pectineus (also adducts
hip)
– Extensor of knee
• Quadriceps femoris
– Rectus femoris (also flexes
hip)
– Vastus lateralis
– Vastus intermedius
– Vastus medialis (also
stabilizes patella)
Patellar tendon reflex
• Tapping the patellar
ligament with a
hammer elicits the
patellar tendon reflex
(knee jerk)
• Tests the L2-L4 nerves
• Diminution or
absence—result from
interruption of
innervation of
quadriceps .
Medial compartment of thigh
Muscles: Gracilis, adductor longus, adductor brevis,

Adductor Hiatus
• The adductor hiatus
is an opening or gap
between the
aponeurotic distal
attachment of the
adductor part of the
adductor magnus
and the tendinous
distal attachment of
the hamstring part.
• The adductor hiatus
transmits the femoral
artery and vein from the
adductor canal in the thigh
to the popliteal fossa
posterior to the knee.

• As the obturator nerve enters the thigh, it divides into
two branches, an anterior branch and a posterior
branch, which are separated by the adductor brevis
muscle:
• Anterior branch: adductor longus, gracilis, and
adductor brevis muscles, and often contributes to the
supply of the pectineus muscle, and cutaneous
branches innervate the skin on the medial side of the
thigh.
• Posterior branch: obturator externus and adductor
brevis muscles and the part of adductor magnus that
attaches to the linea aspera
Obturator nerve
Obturator nerve
Deep artery of thigh (Profunda
femoris artery)
• Branches :lateral and medial circumflex femoral
branches and four perforating branches.
• Lateral circumflex femoral artery: 3 branches
• 1. Ascending branch
• 2. Descending branch
• 3. Transverse branch
• Medial femoral circumflex artery: It takes part in
the formation of the cruciate anastomosis.
Obturator Artery
• The obturator
artery is a branch
of the internal iliac
artery.
• It gives off
muscular branches
and an articular
branch to the hip
joint.
Gluteal Region
• The gluteal region lies posterolateral to the
bony pelvis and proximal end of the femur.
• Muscles in the region mainly abduct, extend,
and laterally rotate the femur relative to the
pelvic bone.
Ligaments of the Gluteal Region
• Sacrotuberous Ligament: sacrotuberous
ligament connects the back of the sacrum to
the ischial tuberosity
• Sacrospinous Ligament: sacrospinous ligament
connects the back of the sacrum to the spine
of the ischium.
Foramina of the Gluteal Region
• Greater Sciatic Foramen:The greater sciatic
foramen is formed by the greater sciatic notch
of the hip bone and the sacrotuberous and
sacrospinous ligaments.
• It provides an exit from the pelvis into the
gluteal region.
Lesser Sciatic Foramen:
• Formed by the lesser
sciatic notch of the hip
bone and the
sacrotuberous and
sacrospinous ligaments.
• It provides an entrance
into the perineum from
the gluteal region.
Nerves of the Gluteal Region
• Sacral Plexus:
• The sacral plexus lies on the posterior pelvic
wall in front of the piriformis muscle .
• It is formed from the anterior rami of the
lumbar nerves and the anterior rami of the
sacral nerves.
Posterior wall of the pelvis
Branches
• Branches to the lower limb that leave the
pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen .
• 1. Sciatic (L4, L5, S1, S2, S3): Articular
branches to hip joint and muscular branches.
• It is the largest nerve in the body and
consists of the tibial and common peroneal
nerves bound together with fascia.
• Innervates all muscles in the posterior
compartment of the thigh that flex the knee
and all muscles that work the ankle and foot.
llmusclein leg and foot

muscles
• 5. Nerve to quadratus femoris (L4, L5, S1) :
Quadratus femoris and inferior gemellus
muscles
• 6. Posterior cutaneous nerve of the thigh(S2,
S3) : Cutaneous branches to buttock and

perineum: sensory to genitalia; muscular
branches to perineal muscles, external
urethral sphincter, and external anal sphincter
• 2. Nerve to piriformis (S1, S2) : Piriformis
muscle
Muscles of the Gluteal Region
• Muscles of the gluteal region are mainly in
two groups:
1. Superficial group of larger muscles:
Gluteus minimus, gluteus medius, and
gluteus maximus-and tensor fasciae latae.
2. Deep group of small muscles:
Piriformis, obturator internus, gemellus
superior, gemellus inferior, and quadratus
femoris.
• Extensor of hip
– Gluteus maximus (also helps in lateral rotation)
• Abductors of hip (help in Medial rotation)
– Gluteus medius
– Gluteus minimus
– Tensor Fascia lata (also stabilizes knee in extension)

– Contract to prevent sagging of unsupported side of hip during
locomotion, enabling opposite foot to swing through (e.g.,
Trendelenburg test)

ilium, sacrum, coccyx,
sacrotuberous ligament
Insertion :Iliotibial tract and
gluteal tuberosity of femur

rotates hip joint
Gluteus medius
• Origin : Outer surface of ilium
Insertion :Lateral surface of
greater trochanter of femur
• N. supply: Superior gluteal
nerve
• Action :Abducts thigh at hip
joint; tilts pelvis when walking
to permit opposite leg to clear
ground
Gluteus minimus
• Origin : Outer surface of
ilium
Insertion :Anterior surface of
greater trochanter of femur
• N. supply: Superior gluteal
nerve
• Action :Abducts thigh at
hip joint; tilts pelvis when
walking to permit
opposite leg to clear
ground
Positive Trendelenburg's sign
• If right gluteus
medius and
minimus muscles
are paralyzed, the
unsupported left
side of the pelvis
falls (sags)
instead of rising;
normally, the
pelvis rises.
