1
Q

Pectineus origin

A

Superior ramus of pubis

2
Q

Pectineus insertion

A

Pectineal line of femur, just inferior to lesser trochanter

3
Q

Pectineus innervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3); may receive branch from obturator nerve

4
Q

Pectineus action

A

Adducts and flexes thigh; assists with medial rotation of thigh

5
Q

Sartorius origin

A

Anterior superior iliac spine and superior part of notch inferior to it

6
Q

Sartorius insertion

A

Superior part of medial surface of tibia

7
Q

Sartoriusinnervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3

8
Q

Sartorius action

A

Flexes, abducts, and laterally rotates thigh at hip joint; flexes leg at knee joint

9
Q

Iliopsoas is made….

A

psoas (major) and iliacus

10
Q

Quadriceps femoris is made…..

A
  • rectus femoris
  • vastus lateralis
  • vastus medialis
  • vastus intermedius
11
Q

Rectus femorisorigin

A

Anterior inferior iliac spine and ilium superior to acetabulum

12
Q

Rectus femoris insertion

A

Via common tendinous (quadriceps tendon) and independent attachments to base of patella; indirectly via patellar ligament to tibial tuberosity

13
Q

Rectus femoris innervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3, L4)

14
Q

Rectus femorisaction

A

Extends leg at knee joint; rectus femoris also steadies hip joint and helps iliopsoas flex thigh

15
Q

Vastus lateralis origin

A

Greater trochanter and lateral lip of linea aspera

16
Q

Vastus lateralis insertion

A

Via common tendinous (quadriceps tendon) and independent attachments to base of patella; indirectly via patellar ligament to tibial tuberosity; medial and lateral vasti also attach to tibia and patella via aponeuroses (medial and lateral patellar retinacula

17
Q

Vastus lateralis innervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3, L4)

18
Q

Vastus lateralis action

A

Extends leg at knee joint

19
Q

Vastus medialis origin

A

Intertrochanteric line and medial lip of linea aspera of femur

20
Q

Vastus medialis insertion

A

Via common tendinous (quadriceps tendon) and independent attachments to base of patella; indirectly via patellar ligament to tibial tuberosity; medial and lateral vasti also attach to tibia and patella via aponeuroses (medial and lateral patellar retinacula

21
Q

Vastus medialis innervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3, L4)

22
Q

Vastus medialis action

A

Extends leg at knee joint

23
Q

Vastus intermediusorigin

A

Anterior and lateral surfaces of shaft of femur

24
Q

Vastus intermedius insertion

A

Via common tendinous (quadriceps tendon) and independent attachments to base of patella; indirectly via patellar ligament to tibial tuberosity

25
Q

Vastus intermedius innervation

A

Femoral nerve (L2, L3, L4)

26
Q

Vastus intermedius action

A

Extends leg at knee joint
