Pelvis & Pelvic Viscera Flashcards
branch of lumbar plexus that supplies the hip flexors and extensors of knee
femoral nerve
branch of lumbar plexus that supplies the adductors of the thigh
obturator nerve
branch of lumbar plexus that divides into genital and femoral branches
genitofemoral nerve
branch of lumbar plexus that supplies skin to suprapubic and inguinal regions + motor supply to abdominals
ilioinguinal and iliohypogastric nerves
provides cutaneous nerve supply to anterior and lateral thigh
lateral femoral cutaneous nerve
makes up the floor of the pelvis
