femoral triangle is a triangular depression in front of the thigh.
boundaries:
medial border- medial border of the adductor longus muscle.
lateral border- medial border of the sartorius muscle.
base - inguinal ligament.
apex- sartorius overlapping the adductor longus muscle. apex lies 10cm below the inguinal ligament.
roof - skin, superficial fascia, superficial inguinal lymph nodes, superficial veins, fascia lata.
floor- lateral to medial side, the floor is formed by the muscles namely illiacus, psoas major, pectineus, adductor longus.
What else can I help you with?
What are the three structures that form the borders of the femoral triangle?
sartorius, adductor longus and the inguinal ligament
What muscle forms the lateral boundary of the femoral triangle?
The sartorius muscle forms the lateral boundary of the femoral triangle.
What is femoral hernia?
There is femoral triangle, through which femoral vein, femoral artery and femoral nerve passes down to thigh. Femoral hernia passes through the femoral triangle. It passes through complicated path and is almost always very difficult to reduce. It is common in females and usually demands surgical interferences.
Why femoral nerve lies outside from femoral triangle?
The femoral sheath is a downward prolongation of abdominal fascial lining into the lower limbs. It covers the femoral vessels and lymphatics for about 1.5 inches into the thigh. But the femoral nerve, which is the principal nerve of lower limb, lies outside this sheath. The reason is that the major nerves lie outside the fascial envelope.
What muscles form the femoral triangle?
iliacus,psoas major adductor longus ,piriformis
How do you treat Femoral triangle pain including knots on all Adductor muscles?
trigger point therapy
Can you feel your femoral artery?
Yes. Turn your leg outward and forward (anterolaterally). There's a triangular depression in the thigh known as the femoral triangle. The femoral artery can be palpated there.
What is the name of the special triangular region bounded by the sartorius muscle the inguinal ligament and the adductor longus muscle?
The femoral triangle.
What are the borders for the Bermuda triangle?
Canada, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.
What does the femoral artery look like?
The femoral artery looks like a light-coloured tube about 1cm in diameter that passes down the inside of the thigh alongside the femoral vein and femoral nerve. It is not visible from the skin surface, but a pulse from it can be felt in the femoral triangle. It has branches in the circumflex arteries and the profunda femoris artery, and becomes the popliteal artery after passing through to the back of the leg through the adductor hiatus, a hole in the adductor magnus muscle near the distal end of the thigh.
The Golden Triangle is located at the borders of?
Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar. 100%
Where is the artery in the leg located?
The femoral artery.
