Superficial is the
continuity of the
superficial fascia of
anterior abdominal wall
Deep fascia thickened
laterally to form the
illiotibial tact
Has a gap called
saphenous opening
Divided into 3
compartments by 3
intermuscular septa
Muscle compartments in the thigh

In the thigh, there are medial (adductor),
anterior (extensor), and posterior (flexor)
compartments.
Anterior Thigh Muscles

Anterior thigh muscles are the flexors of the hip and
extensors of the knee.
Iliacus
Action: Chief flexor of the hip joint.
Nerve Supply: Femoral nerve
Psoas Major
Action: Flexes thigh on trunk ( hip flexion)
Nerve Supply: femoral nerve
Pectineus
Action: Flexion & adduction of
hip joint. Also assists with
medial rotation of the thigh
Nerve supply: Femoral nerve
Sartorius
Action :
1.Flexion, abduction and Lateral rotation of
thigh at hip joint.
2. Flexion leg at knee joint
Nerve Supply: Femoral nerve
Tailor's muscle

This combination of
lateral rotation and
flexion of the hip and
flexion of the knee
gave tailors particularly
enlarged sartorius
muscles.

Looking at the bottom of
one's foot, as if checking
to see if one had
stepped in gum,
demonstrates all four
actions of sartorius.
Quadriceps femoris
Four muscles make up this group. They are:
 rectus femoris,
 vastus lateralis,
 vastus medialis,
 vastus intermedius
Action: extension of knee
Rectus femoris also flexes the hip joint as well.


Foot drop, sometimes
called drop foot, is a
general term for
difficulty lifting the
front part of the foot.
The loss of dorsiflexion
of the ankle causes
footdrop.
Posterior compartment of leg

Muscles in the posterior
(flexor) compartment of
leg are organized into
two groups; superficial
and deep.

flexion
Nerve Supply: Tibial nerve
2. Soleus
Action: Plantarflexion of the foot, knee flexion

pursued some study in which he took no interest--for
it is a part of education to learn to interest ourselves
in subjects for which we have no aptitude.
