The anterior division branches to the sartorius as well as into the intermediate cutaneous and medial cutaneous nerves of the thigh. The posterior division innervates the quadriceps femoris muscles and continues distally to form the saphenous sensory nerve (Haymaker and Woodhall, 1953; Stewart, ...
Purpose: Muscle hypertrophy can occur non-uniformly in athletes who repetitively perform particular movements, presumably leading to a unique muscle size distribution along the length. The present study aimed to examine if sprinters have unique size distributions within the gluteus and posterior thigh ...
Muscle thickness of the Trap was measured at the midpoint of the muscle belly between T1 and the posterior acromial edge, where the muscle borders were parallel [19]. Participants were asked to lie on a physical therapy table for a minimum of 10 min before images were collected. The same...
The ankle is not a simple hinge joint. As well as flexion and extension, it can exhibit inversion (the sole of thefootfaces the other leg) or eversion (the opposite movement). These movements are controlled by the tibialisposterior, which inverts the ankle, and the peronaeus muscles, which...
In-championship HMI was defined as an injury reported by LOC or national medical teams located at the “posterior thigh” and with “strain/muscle rupture/tear” or “muscle cramps or spasm” as a type, based on clinical examination and/or medical imaging by the national medical teams and/...

posterior compartment of the thigh (Fig. 16). Above the popliteal space, the sciatic nerve splits into the common peroneal nerve and thetibial nerve. Compression orinjuryof the sciatic nerve presents as loss of function of the posterior thigh compartment muscles, all muscles of the leg andfoot...
Muscle fascicles were reconstructed to examine the anatomy of the medial gastrocnemius, posterior soleus and tibialis anterior in seven stroke survivors using US- and DTI-based techniques, respectively. By aligning the US and DTI coordinate system, DTI reconstructed muscle fascicles at the same ...
muscles. The sartorius converts this area into a ‘channel’ (Hunter's canal), with sartorius being the ‘ceiling’ of this passageway for the femoral vessels andsaphenous nerve. This passage ends at theadductor hiatusas the vessels course through the adductor magnus to the posterior thigh. ...
