femoral nerve

If they are, this would suggest the femoral nerve is implicated.

Femoral nerve palsy is another but much more rare complication.

It is sometimes transected in treatment of femoral nerve entrapment.

The femoral nerve is the largest and longest of the plexus' nerves.

These quadriceps muscles are innervated by the femoral nerve.

The posterior division of the L4 root is the Femoral nerve.

She cut away the rotten ulcerations, working perilously close to the artery and the white cord of the femoral nerve.

It is innervated by branches of the femoral nerve (L2-L4).

Anterior cutaneous branches of the femoral nerve (yellow)

The region of the leg that is troubling you, is an area which is supplied by the 'femoral nerve'.

On the front of the thigh it communicates with the anterior cutaneous branches of the femoral nerve.

The iliopsoas is innervated by the femoral nerve and direct branches from the lumbar plexus.

It is accompanied by the branch of the femoral nerve to the vastus lateralis muscle.

Saphenous nerve (pink), a branch of the femoral nerve.

An osteopath or physiotherapist will assess other possible scenarios, but a 'femoral nerve stretch test' may well prove positive in your case.

The pectineus is the only adductor muscle that is innervated by the femoral nerve.

In the thigh the anterior division of the femoral nerve gives off anterior cutaneous and muscular branches.

The hematoma that occurs can potentially build on the femoral nerve or lateral cutaneous of the femur.

The femoral nerve from L2-L4 is in the greater pelvis, but not in the lesser pelvis.

Some other commonly compressed nerves include the femoral nerve, which extends from pelvis to knee, and the peroneal nerve, along the side of the leg.

A continuous peripheral nerve block can be introduced into a limb undergoing surgery, for example, a femoral nerve block to prevent pain in knee replacement.

Situated in the anterior fascial compartment of the thigh, sartorius is innervated via branches of the femoral nerve.

The femoral nerve innervates the quadriceps femoris, a fourth of which is the rectus femoris.

The lateral compartment allows for passage of the illiopsoas (primary hip flexor), allowing attachment to the femur, along with the femoral nerve.

The saphenous nerve (long or internal saphenous nerve) is the largest cutaneous branch of the femoral nerve.
