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]
The lateral rotator group is a group of six small muscles of the hip which all externally (laterally) rotate the femur in the hip joint.It consists of the following muscles: piriformis, gemellus superior, obturator internus, gemellus inferior, quadratus femoris and the obturator externus.
The pudendal canal (also called Alcock's canal) is an anatomical structure formed by the obturator fascia (fascia of the obturator internus muscle) lining the lateral wall of the ischioanal fossa. The internal pudendal artery and veins, and pudendal nerve pass through the pudendal canal, and the perineal nerve arises within it. [1]

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 internal obturator muscle or obturator internus muscle originates on the medial surface of the obturator membrane, the ischium near the membrane, and the rim of the pubis. It exits the pelvic cavity through the lesser sciatic foramen. The internal obturator is situated partly within the lesser pelvis, and partly at the back of the hip-joint.
