Femoral nerve
The major nerves that serve the anterior thigh are the femoral nerve and the obturator nerve. The femoral nerve innervates the quadriceps muscles, while the obturator nerve innervates the adductor muscles of the thigh.
The nerves that arise from the lumbar plexus are femoral, obturator, lateral femoral cutaneous, genitofemoral, illoinguinal and illohypogastric nerve. As part of lumbosacral plexus, it is the nervous plexus that is found in the lumbar region.

the posterior femoral nerve.
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.
The femur is the thigh-bone. The femoral nerve, artery and vein run between the groin and the knee.
Femoral Nerve.
Messages from the femoral nerve are sent to the brain through a series of electrical impulses. These impulses travel along the nerve fibers of the femoral nerve until they reach the spinal cord, where they are then transmitted up to the brain via the spinal cord's sensory pathways. Once in the brain, the messages are interpreted and processed to produce a response or sensation.
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.
