Medial Thigh

Question 0

Adductor Longus

Answer 0

prox: pubis - body inferior to pubic crest
distal: femur - middle part of linea aspera
innerv: anterior branch of obturator nerve
fxn: hip adduction & weak flexion

Question 1

Pectineus

Answer 1

prox: pubis - superior ramus
distal: femur - pectineal line
innerv: femoral nerve

fxn: hip flexion & adduction
assists in medial rotation

Question 2

Adductor Brevis

Answer 2

prox: pubis - body & inferior ramus

distal: femur - pectineal line
proximal part of linea aspera

innerv: anterior branch of oburator nerve
fxn: hip adduction & weak flexion

Question 3

Adductor Magnus

Answer 3

prox: adductor part: pubis - inferior ramus
ischium - ramus
hamstrings part: ischium - ischial tuberosity

distal: adductor part: femur - gluteal tuberosity
linea aspera
medial supracondylar line
hamstrings part: femur - adductor tubercle

innerv: adductor part: posterior branch of obturator nerve
hamstrings part: tibial part of sciatic nerve

fxn: hip adduction
adductor part: hip flexion
hamstrings part: hip extension

Question 4

Gracilis

Answer 4

prox: pubix - body & inferior ramus
distal: tibia (proximal) - medial surface
innerv: obturator nerve

fxn: hip adduction
knee flexion & medial rotation (tibia on femur)

Question 5

Obturator Externus

Answer 5

prox: obturator membrane - lateral surface & surrounding bones
distal: femur - trochanteric fossa
innerv: obturator nerve
fxn: hip lateral rotation
