The saphenous nerve (long or internal saphenous nerve) is the largest cutaneous branch of the femoral nerve. It is derived from the lumbar plexus (L3-L4). It is a strictly sensory nerve, and has no motor function. It commences in the proximal (upper) thigh and travels along the adductor canal.

The medial cutaneous nerve, before dividing, gives off a few filaments, which pierce the fascia lata, to supply the integument of the medial side of the thigh, accompanying the long saphenous vein. One of these filaments passes through the saphenous opening; a second becomes subcutaneous about the middle of the thigh; a third pierces the fascia ...
The infrapatellar branch of saphenous nerve is a nerve of the lower limb. [1] The saphenous nerve, located about the middle of the thigh, gives off a branch which joins the subsartorial plexus. It pierces the sartorius and fascia lata, and is distributed to the skin in front of the patella.

Superficial fibular nerve (yellow) - labeled as "superficial peroneal nerve". Also Medial dorsal cutaneous nerve. Sural nerve (brown). Also Medial sural cutaneous nerve.

It transmits the great saphenous vein and other smaller vessels including the superficial epigastric artery and superficial external pudendal artery, as well as the femoral branch of the genitofemoral nerve. The fascia cribrosa, which is pierced by the structures passing through the opening, closes the aperture and must be removed to expose it.
