QuestionAnswer
What is the origin of the biceps femoris? Ischiatic tuberosity and sacrotuberous ligament.
What is the insertion of the biceps femoris? Fascia lata/crural fascia, patella/patellar ligament, cranial tibia, and calcaneal tuber through fascial expansions.
What is the action of the biceps femoris? Extends the hip and hock; cranial part extends the stifle, caudal part flexes it; abducts the limb.
What is the origin of the semitendinosus? Ischiatic tuberosity.
What is the insertion of the semitendinosus? Medial tibial body and calcaneal tuber through crural fascia.
What is the action of the semitendinosus? Extends the hip and hock; flexes the stifle.
What is the origin of the semimembranosus? Ischiatic tuberosity.
What is the insertion of the semimembranosus? Caudomedial femur and medial tibial condyle.
What is the action of the semimembranosus? Extends the hip; cranial portion extends the stifle, caudal portion may flex it; adducts the limb.
What is the origin of the sartorius—cranial part? Iliac crest/cranial iliac region and thoracolumbar fascia.
What is the insertion of the sartorius—cranial part? Patella and fascia of the stifle with rectus femoris.
What is the action of the sartorius—cranial part? Flexes the hip and extends the stifle.
What is the origin of the sartorius—caudal part? Cranial ventral iliac spine and adjacent ventral ilium.
What is the insertion of the sartorius—caudal part? Cranial border of the tibia with gracilis fascia.
What is the action of the sartorius—caudal part? Flexes the hip and flexes the stifle.
What is the origin of the gracilis? Pelvic symphysis.
What is the insertion of the gracilis? Cranial tibia and calcaneal tuber through crural fascia.
What is the action of the gracilis? Adducts the limb, flexes the stifle, and extends the hip/hock.
What is the origin of the pectineus? Iliopubic eminence/prepubic tendon and cranial pubic ligament.
What is the insertion of the pectineus? Distal medial femur/medial lip of the caudal rough surface.
What is the action of the pectineus? Adducts the limb and assists hip flexion.
What is the origin of the adductor? Pelvic symphysis and ventral pubis/ischium.
What is the insertion of the adductor? Caudal surface/rough lines of the femur.
What is the action of the adductor? Adducts the limb and extends the hip.
What is the origin of the tensor fasciae latae? Tuber coxae and adjacent ilium; blends with middle gluteal aponeurosis.
What is the insertion of the tensor fasciae latae? Fascia lata and cranial tibia through the patellar ligament.
What is the action of the tensor fasciae latae? Tenses fascia lata, flexes the hip, and extends the stifle.
What is the origin of the superficial gluteal? Lateral sacrum and first caudal vertebra/sacrotuberous fascia.
What is the insertion of the superficial gluteal? Third trochanter of the femur.
What is the action of the superficial gluteal? Extends and abducts the hip.
What is the origin of the middle gluteal? Iliac crest and gluteal surface of the ilium.
What is the insertion of the middle gluteal? Greater trochanter.
What is the action of the middle gluteal? Powerfully extends and abducts the hip; assists medial rotation.
What is the origin of the deep gluteal? Body of the ilium and ischiatic spine.
What is the insertion of the deep gluteal? Cranial aspect of the greater trochanter.
What is the action of the deep gluteal? Abducts the hip and rotates the limb medially; assists extension.
