Adductor brevis is a flat, triangular muscle that is found in the inner thigh. This muscle runs from the pubis to the medial aspect of the femur. Together with adductor longus, adductor magnus, gracilis and pectineus muscles, it comprises a group of muscles known as the adductors of the thigh.
The adductor brevis is a muscle in the thigh situated immediately deep to the pectineus and adductor longus. It belongs to the adductor muscle group. The main function of the adductor brevis is to pull the thigh medially. [1]
Originates from the body of pubis and inferior pubic rami. It attaches to the linea aspera on the posterior surface of the femur, proximal to the adductor longus. Actions: Adduction of the thigh. Innervation: Obturator nerve (L2-L4).
The adductor brevis is a short muscle, lying underneath the adductor longus. It separates the anterior and posterior branches of the obturator nerve and is an important anatomical landmark within the medial thigh.
The adductor brevis is a muscle of the medial compartment of the thigh. It separates the anterior and posterior branches of the obturator nerve and is an important anatomical landmark within the medial thigh. Attachments: Originates from the body of pubis and inferior pubic rami.
The adductor brevis is a triangular muscle and the shortest of the adductors. Its fibers originate from the lateral part of the body and inferior ramus of pubis, and course downwards, laterally and backwards to insert onto the superior half of the linea aspera.

Interactive 3D model of the adductor brevis muscle and information on its origin, insertion, action, innervation, and blood supply.
The adductor brevis muscle is a relatively small, fan-shaped muscle situated in the medial compartment of the thigh. Understanding its anatomy and function requires an exploration of its origin, insertion, muscle path, and function.
The adductor brevis muscle originates from the inferior pubic ramus, inferior to the origin of the adductor longus muscle. It is inserted into the pectineal line and the superior part of the medial lip of the linea aspera. Here is a diagram which shows the insertion of the adductor muscles into the femur.
