Sympathetic Innervation of The Lower Limb
The (T10 to L2) i.e lower three Thoracic and upper two Lumbar sections of spinal cord act as the originating point of sympathetic distribution of nerves in lower limb. The point of origin of preganglionic fibres is from lateral horn cells through the ventral roots. After that
Cutaneous Nerves of the Front of the Thigh
The skin of the front of the thigh is supplied by seven cutaneous nerves derived directly, or indirectly, from the lumbar plexus. In addition, the skin over the upper lateral part of the thigh is supplied by the lateral cutaneous branch of the subcostal nerve. The ilioinguinal
Saphenous Nerve
The saphenous nerve is the longest cutaneous division of the femoral nerve and saphenous nerve is the terminal sensory branch of the posterior division of the femoral nerve. The canal, which lies in the center third of the medial thigh, likewise consists of the femoral artery and
Sural Nerve
The Sural nerve within the calf area (sura) is a sensory nerve of the leg. It is comprised of collateral divisions of the tibial nerve as well as common fibular nerve. Two cutaneous sections, the medial and lateral create the sural nerve. The lateral division emerges via
Nerves of the Lower Limb
The Nerves of the lower limb originate from ventral (anterior primary) rami of the lumbar and sacral nerves while creating the lumbar plexus (L1-L4) in the posterior abdominal wall and the sacral plexus (l4-S4) in the pelvis. The primary nerves of the lower limb are as follows:
