Adductor pollicis; Lower limb. of thigh at hip [5] medial compartment of thigh/adductor muscles of the hip. Adductor longus; Adductor brevis; Adductor magnus; Pectineus;
Adductor brevis; Adductor longus; Adductor magnus; Adductor minimus This is often considered to be a part of adductor magnus. pectineus; gracilis; Obturator externus [1] is also part of the medial compartment of thigh; The adductors originate on the pubis and ischium bones and insert mainly on the medial posterior surface of the femur.
The adductor longus arises from the body of pubis inferior to pubic crest and lateral to pubic symphysis. [1] It lies ventrally on the adductor magnus, and near the femur, the adductor brevis is interposed between these two muscles. Distally, the fibers of the adductor longus extend into the adductor canal. [1]
The femoral triangle is bounded: [2] superiorly (also known as the base) by the inguinal ligament. [2]medially by the medial border of the adductor longus muscle. (Some people consider the femoral triangle to be smaller hence the medial border being at the lateral border of the adductor longus muscle.) [2]

The adductor magnus is a large triangular muscle, situated on the medial side of the thigh.. It consists of two parts. The portion which arises from the ischiopubic ramus (a small part of the inferior ramus of the pubis, and the inferior ramus of the ischium) is called the pubofemoral portion, adductor portion, or adductor minimus, and the portion arising from the tuberosity of the ischium is ...
The pectineus muscle is innervated by the femoral nerve, and the hamstring portion of adductor magnus is innervated by the tibial nerve. [5] In the groin, underneath the skin, there are three to five deep inguinal lymph nodes that play a role in the immune system. These can be swollen due to certain diseases, the most common one being a simple ...
The adductor minimus originates on the pelvis at the inferior ramus of the pubis as the anterior-most part of the adductor magnus. It is inserted on the back of the femur at the medial lip of the linea aspera and thus crosses the proximal part of the true adductor magnus.
