practical medial thigh Flashcards
1
Q
medial thigh muscles (medial think bring closer to middle)
A
gracilis, adductor magnus, adductor longus, adductor brevis
2
Q
medial thigh commonalities
A
origin= pubis/pubic bone
action = hip adduction + internal rotation
innervation= obturator n.
3
Q
gracilis
A
o= pubis ischial ramus
i= medial surface of proximal tibia
a = hip adduction + internal rotation
in = obturator + tibial n
4
Q
adductor magnus
A
o= pubis+ ischium
i= linea aspera
a= hip adduction + internal rotation
in= obturator + tibial n
5
Q
adductor longus
A
o=pubic bone
i=linea aspera
a=hip adduction + internal rotation
in= obturator n
6
Q
adductor brevis
A
o= pubis
i= linea aspera
a = hip adduction + internal rotation
in= obturator n
