<s>[INST] context: Branches of femoral nerveAnterior division: In the thigh the anterior division of the femoral nerve gives off anterior cutaneous and muscular branches.- Anterior cutaneous branches: The anterior cutaneous branches comprise the following nerves:Intermediate femoral cutaneous nerve andMedial femoral cutaneous nerve- Muscular branches (rami musculares):The nerve to the Pectineus arises immediately below the inguinal ligament.The nerve to the Saorius arises in common with the intermediate cutaneous.Posterior division: The posterior division- muscular branches supply the four pas of the Quadriceps femoris.- The branch to the Rectus femoris enters the upper pa of the deep surface of the muscle, and supplies a filament to the hip-joint.- The branch to the Vastus lateralis, of large size, accompanies the descending branch of the lateral femoral circumflex aery.The branch to the Vastus medialis descends lateral to the femoral vessels in company with the saphenous nerve.- The branches to the Vastus intermedius.- The aicular branch to the hip-joint is derived from the nerve to the Rectus femoris.The aicular branches to the knee-joint are three in number.One, a long slender filament, is derived from the nerve to the Vastus lateralis.- Another, derived from the nerve to the Vastus medialis- The third branch is derived from the nerve to the Vastus intermedius.
