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, ...
The muscle exercise device for the muscles of the housing of the thigh comprises: a flat - form - (1) for receiving the user on which the latter is linked to the knees, - of the means (8) for locking the end of the lower limbs, adapted to maintain a substantially static the lower...
What muscles abduct the thigh to take the "at ease" stance? Which of the muscles on the dorsal surface are shaped like a trapezoid? What is the muscle type found in the Pectoralis major in the human body? What are the structures situated from anterior to pos...
The three posterior divisions unite to form the femoral nerve, which runs through the pelvis and exits into the thigh under the inguinal ligament. Muscular innervation is supplied to the iliopsoas (hip flexion), pectineus, sartorius, and quadriceps (knee extension) muscles. In addition, sensory ...

sectional area (CSA) of muscle, subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue (VAT, for abdomen only), and muscle signal intensities, as an index of intramuscular adipose tissue in the anterior, lateral, and posterior muscles of the abdomen and quadriceps, hamstring and adductor muscles in the thigh....
Posterior leg muscles of the dorsal surface have high proportions of slow and fast oxidative fibres for walking and running that contain some fatigue-resistant properties, but they can generate more rapid power. The fibres in any one motor ‘unit’ are always the same, but muscles have ...
In pedaling, the anterior and posterior bifunctional thigh muscles develop needed anterior and posterior crank forces, respectively, to dominate the flexion-to-extension and extension-to-flexion transitions. We hypothesized that contralateral sensorimotor activity substantially contributes to the appropriate ...
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. ...
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...
