The femoral nerve is the major nerve that serves the tissues of the thigh and leg, including the muscles and skin. While the much larger sciatic nerve also passes through the thigh on its way to the lower leg and foot, only the femoral nerve innervates the tissues of the thigh.
Structure [edit]. The femoral nerve is the largest branch of the lumbar plexus, and arises from the dorsal divisions of the ventral rami of the second, third, and fourth lumbar nerves (L2-L4). Anterior cutaneous branches: The anterior cutaneous branches comprise the following nerves: intermediate femoral cutaneous nerve and medial femoral cutaneous nerve (Note the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve is a branch from the lumbar plexus.).
