Femur
• longest strongest
bone in the body
Head of femur
• head-2/3 of a sphere articulates with
the acetabulum medially
• depression for ligamentum capitis
femoris

Neck of femur
• forms an angle of 125 degrees with
shaft and is separated by the
intertrochanteric line
• greater trochanter- insertion for gluteus
medius& minimus, piriformis and
obturator internus.
• lesser trochanter- inferior end of
intertrochanteric crest.insertion for
iliopsoas tendon
Blood supply
• External iliac
• common femoral
• profunda + superficial
• popliteal

art
Pectineus (A & B) Femoral nerve (L2, L3); may Adducts and flexes thigh; assists
receive a branch from obturator with medial rotation of thigh
nerve
Iliopsoas (A & C) Act conjointly in flexing thigh at
Psoas major Anterior rami of lumbar nerves hip joint and in stabilizing this
(L1, L2, L3) jointb
Sartorius (A & D) Femoral nerve (L2, L3) Flexes, abducts, and laterally
rotates thigh at hip joint; flexes
leg at knee jointc 11
Gluteus maximus (A Inferior gluteal nerve (L5, S1, S2) Extends thigh (especially from
& C) flexed position) and assists in
its lateral rotation; steadies
thigh and assists in rising from
sitting position
Gluteus medius (A, Superior gluteal nerve (L5, S1) Abduct and medially rotate
C, & E) thigh; keep pelvis level when
ipsilateral limb is weight bearing
and advance opposite
(unsupported) side during its
Gluteus minimus
swing phase
(A–D)
Piriformis (F & G) Branches of anterior rami of S1, S2 Laterally rotate extended thigh
and abduct flexed thigh; steady
Obturator internus Nerve to obturator internus (L5, S1) femoral head in acetabulum
(H)
Quadratus femoris Nerve to quadratus femoris (L5, S1) Laterally rotates thigh;c steadies
(I) femoral head in acetabulum

Quadriceps femoris
Rectus femoris Femoral nerve (L2, L3, L4) Extend leg at knee joint; rectus
femoris also steadies hip joint and
helps iliopsoas flex thigh

Patella
• patella - largest sesamoid bone in the
body
• located in quadriceps femoris and
attached to the tibial tuberosity by the
patella ligament
Knee
• largest and most complicated joint
• condylar synovial hinge joint
• with saddle joint between femur and
patella
• flexion / ext, some gliding motion when
flexed
Knee
• stabilized medially by- sartiorius, gracilis,
gastrocnemus, semitendinosus,
semimembranosus and tibial collateral
ligament
• laterally by biceps femoris, gastroc,
iliotibial tract and fibula collateral ligament

Knee
Ligaments
• intracapsular/ extrasynovial
- Anterior Cruciate
Ligament
• longer than PCL
• prevents forward sliding of
tibia on femur and
hyperextension of knee jt
• taught during ext lax during
flexion
Ligaments
• intracapsular / extra
synovial Posterior
Crutiate Ligament
• shorter straighter
stronger
• prevents backward
sliding of the tibia on
femur
• taught during flexion
lax during ext
