The surgeon incises the skin and bluntly dissects through the subcutaneous fat to expose the sartorius. |
|
Note that the sartorius muscle has become a thin band as it crosses over and behind the medial condyle of the femur. |
|
Of the anterior group of muscles, those seen at this level include the sartorius and quadriceps femoris. |
|
The superficial branch supplies sensory innervation to the skin of the anterior thigh and motor innervation to the sartorius muscle. |
|
It passes between the dorsal border of the sartorius and the anterior border of the tendon of gracilis. |
|
The anserine bursa is a fairly large bursa that ties behind the tendons of sartorius, gracilis, and semitendinous muscles and the tibial collateral ligament. |
|
This absolute refractory period in the frog sartorius at 0 °C lasts about 10 milliseconds after stimulation. |
|
The tendinous origin of the sartorius muscle is seen in this cut. |
|
The sartorius muscle and medial and anterior surfaces of the thigh are served by branches of the anterior division of the femoral nerve. |
|
The popliteal artery is exposed through an incision that parallels the anterior border of the sartorius muscle and passes just posterior to the medial condyle. |
