Примери за femoris

• Aneurysm of the profunda femoris is distinguished from that of the main trunk by the fact that the pulses beyond are, in the former, unaffected, and by the normal artery being felt pulsating over or alongside the sac. 

• While the leg is supporting weight the stifle joint is fixed in position mainly by the quadriceps femoris group of muscles which are attached to the patella. 

• Furthermore, weights of quadriceps (musculus rectus femoris, m. vastus intermedius, m. vastus lateralis and m. vastus medialis) (muscle, mw), liver (liv), kidney (kid) and spleen (spl) were recorded.

• For example, if the quadriceps femoris and hamstring contract simultaneously at a high intensity, the stronger muscle (usually the quadriceps) overpowers the weaker muscle (hamstrings).

• The biceps femoris is most commonly injured, followed by semitendinosus.

• The long head of the biceps femoris is a weaker knee flexor when the hip is extended (because of active insufficiency).

• Avulsion of the biceps femoris tendon, is the complete pulling away of the tendon from the bone.

• The rectus femoris, a large muscle in the quadriceps, is typical.

• Pennate muscles are usually found where their length change is less important than maximum force, such as the rectus femoris.

• This means that contraction from both rectus femoris and hamstrings will result in hip and knee extension.

• The quadratus femoris originates at the ischial tuberosity and is inserted onto the intertrochanteric crest between the trochanters.

• Results showed significant increases in activation of tibialis anterior, gastrocnemius, soleus, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, medial hamstring, biceps femoris, and gluteus maximus before foot strike.

• The short head of the biceps femoris crosses only one joint (knee) and is therefore not involved in hip extension.

• The fibular nerve continues down on the medial side of biceps femoris, winds around the fibular neck and enters the front of the lower leg.

• The short head of the biceps femoris is innervated by the fibular nerve.

• This study looked at the muscle specific tension in the quadriceps femoris and vastus lateralis of forty-two young men.

• The upper four openings are small, and give passage to the perforating branches of the profunda femoris artery.
