Muscles in the Anterior Compartment of the Thigh The musculature of the thigh can be split into three sections; anterior, medial and posterior. Each compartment has a distinct innervation and function. The muscles in the anterior compartment of the thigh are innervated by the femoral nerve (L2-L4), and as a general rule, act to extend the leg at the knee joint. There are three major muscles in the anterior thigh – the pectineus, sartorius and quadriceps femoris.

Femur Structure [edit]. The femur is the only bone in the thigh. The two femurs converge medially toward the knees, where they articulate with the proximal ends of the tibiae. The angle of convergence of the femora is a major factor in determining the femoral-tibial angle.he upper or proximal extremity (close to the torso) contains the head, neck, the two trochanters and adjacent structures. The head of femur, which articulates with the acetabulum of the pelvic bone, composes two-thirds of a sphere.

MUSCLES OF THIGH AND THE HIP ANATOMY The uppermost of the medial thigh muscles is the pectineus muscle. Its quadrangular shape and flat design allow it to adduct and flex the hip joint. Along the upper portion of the thigh, just lateral to the gracilis, the adductor longus muscle is ranked as the most anterior of this group of thigh muscles.

- The pubic bone forms the anterior region of the pelvis and contributes to the acetabulum, which articulates with the femoral head to form the hip joint. The pubic bone is covered by a layer of fat that is covered by the mons pubis. The two pubic bones joint anteriorly through the pubic symphysis, a cartilaginous joint.

Femoral Artery Femoral Artery. The femoral artery is the main artery that provides oxygenated blood to the tissues of the leg. It passes through the deep tissues of the femoral (or thigh) region of the leg parallel to the femur. The common femoral artery is the largest artery found in the femoral region of the body.

Palm Trees 101 There are over 2,500 different palm tree species in the world. Palm trees can be separated into few major types depending on their trunk, leaf structure, growth rate, size, and cold tolerance. Aside from this basic segregation, palms also differ in salt and drought tolerance, leaf color, fruit and flower production.

Thigh In humans, the thigh is the area between the pelvis and the knee. Anatomically, it is part of the lower limb. The single bone in the thigh is called the femur. This bone is very thick and strong (due to the high proportion of cortical bone), and forms a ball and socket joint at the hip, and a modified hinge joint at the knee.

Femoral vein Femoral vein. The femoral vein is located in the upper thigh and pelvic region of the human body. It travels in close proximity to the femoral artery. This vein is one of the larger vessels in the venous system. Instead of draining deoxygenated blood from specific parts of the body, it receives blood from several significant branches. These include popliteal, the profunda femoris, and the great sapheneous veins.

Arteries of the Lower Limb After exiting the femoral triangle, the femoral artery continues down the anterior surface of the thigh, via a tunnel known as the adductor canal. During its descent the artery supplies the anterior thigh muscles. The adductor canal ends at an opening in the adductor magnus, called the adductor hiatus.
