Nerve to M. Quadratus Femoris

Version 1

Abstract

The nerve to the quadratus femoris has been reported to supply (in addition to the quadratus femoris, the inferior gemellus, and the hip joint) branches to the upper part of the adductor magnus and superior gemellus. This branch to the superior gemellus may be this muscle's only nerve supply.
