The nerve to obturator internus (also known as the obturator internus nerve [citation needed]) is a mixed (sensory and motor) [1] nerve providing motor innervation to the obturator internus muscle and gemellus superior muscle, [2] [1] and sensory innervation to the hip joint. [1] It is a branch of the sacral plexus. It is one of the group of ...
Here it enters the thigh, through the obturator canal, and divides into an anterior and a posterior branch, which are separated at first by some of the fibers of the obturator externus, and lower down by the adductor brevis. [2] An accessory obturator nerve may be present in approximately 8% to 29% of the general population. [3]
Nerve to obturator internus (L5-S2) Obturator internus muscle: Medial surface of obturator membrane and the surrounding bone: Medial surface of greater trochanter: Nerve to obturator internus (L5-S2) Gemellus inferior muscle: Just above the tuberosity of the ischium: Lower edge of Obturator internus muscle tendon (indirectly greater trochanter)
The obturator nerve is the primary nerve supplying this compartment. The obturator artery is the blood supply to the medial thigh. The muscles in the compartment are: gracilis; adductor longus; adductor brevis; adductor magnus; The obturator externus muscle is sometimes considered part of this group, [1] [2] [3] and sometimes excluded.

When present it emerges from beneath the distal/inferior border of the adductor longus muscle and descends along the posterior margin of the sartorius muscle to [1] the medial side of [citation needed] the knee where it pierces the deep fascia and communicates with the saphenous nerve. When present, it provides sensory innervation to the skin ...
The obturator internus originates on the pelvis on the obturator foramen and its membrane, passes through the lesser sciatic foramen, and is inserted on the trochanteric fossa of the femur. "Bent" over the lesser sciatic notch , which acts as a fulcrum, the muscle forms the strongest lateral rotators of the hip together with the gluteus maximus ...
