What is the deep head and the smallest of the four quadriceps that originates on the anterior lateral femur and joins the quadriceps tendon?
The deep head of the quadriceps, known as the vastus intermedius, is the smallest of the four quadriceps muscles. It originates from the anterior and lateral surfaces of the femur and lies beneath the rectus femoris. The vastus intermedius contributes to the quadriceps tendon, which ultimately attaches to the patella and plays a crucial role in knee extension.
