    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/External_obturator_muscle

    The external obturator muscle or obturator externus muscle (/ ˌ ɒ b tj ʊəˈr eɪ t ər ɪ k ˈ s t ɜːr n ə s /; OE) is a flat, triangular muscle, which covers the outer surface of the anterior wall of the pelvis. It is sometimes considered part of the medial compartment of thigh, [1] and sometimes considered part of the gluteal region. [2]
