posterior sacro-iliac ligaments
sacrotuberous ligament
iliolumbar ligament
anterior sacro-iliac ligaments
sacrospinous ligament
what is the role of os coxa ligaments?
stabilize pelvis and resist movement
what nerver runs through the lesser sciatic foramen?
pudendal nerve
what nerve runs through the greater and lesser sciatic foramina?
sciatic nerve
os coxa ligaments
where does the iliolumbar ligament originte and attach?
5th lumbar vertebrae to ilium

helpful tidbits
What landmark can you use to find pectinus muscle?
inguinal ligament
ligaments of thigh
what is a good way to think about naming ligaments?
named after their location 1 to their location 2
adductors
What are the 3 adductor muscles?
superficial to deep
(superficial) adductor longus, adductor brevis, adductor magnus (deep)
What make up the borders of the femoral triangle?
inguinal ligament, adductor longus, sartorius
What are the contents located in the femoral triangle?
NAVeL
femoral nerve, femoral artery, femoral vein, empty space, Lympathic vessels
adductor canal is composed of what structures?
saphenous nerve, femoral vein, femoral artery
What muscles surround the adductor canal?
vastus medialis, sartorius (subsartorial fascia), adductor longus
Where does the femoral artery and vein run out through? what do they turn into?
adductor hiatus - they turn into popliteal artery and vein
what muscles does the obturator nerve innervate? anterior branch and posterior branch
anterior: add long, add brevis, graciliis
posterior: adductor magnus, obturator externus
what muscles does the femoral nerve innervate? all branches
Queens hardly get time to SIP coffee
Anterior division:
-Sartorius
-iliacus
-pectineus
posterior division (Quadriceps femoris):
- rectus femoris
- vastus medialis
- vastus intermedius
- vastus lateralis
when femoral nerve becomes saphenous nerve what does it then innervate?
cutaneous innervation of skin around calf
what muscles make up the hip flexors?
sartorius, iliopsoas (strongest), pectineus, rectus femoris
what is the function of sartorius muscle?
- flex, abduct, laterally rotate thigh at hip joint
- flexes leg at knee joint
what is the function of iliopsoas muscle?
- flex thigh at hip joint
what is the function of pectineus muscle?
- flex and adduct thight at hip joint
may also
- medial rotation of thigh (when in extension and adduction)
- lateral rotation (when flex and abduction) of thigh
what is the function of rectus femoris?
- flex thigh at hip joint
- extend leg at knee joint
all quads femoris extend leg at knee joint
what is the function of adductor magnus (adductor portion, hamstring portion)
adductor portion: flex thigh
hamstring protion: extend thigh
What is the function of gracilis?
- adducts thigh
- flexes leg at knee joint (inserts on pes ancerinus)
- medial rotation of leg
