The human leg is the entire lower limb of the human body, including the foot, thigh or sometimes even the hip or buttock region. (wikipedia.org)
We report here a case of a 64-year-old male who presented with an isolated history of swelling in the right gluteal region with associated progressive severe weakness of bilateral lower limbs and pain in lower back and thigh. (jmaacms.com)
Local examination of the right gluteal region revealed a large, diffuse soft swelling extending into the upper thigh with poorly defined margins. (jmaacms.com)
Dysfunction of the piriformis muscle can cause signs and symptoms of pain in the sciatic nerve distribution, that is, in the gluteal area, posterior thigh, posterior leg, and lateral aspect of the foot. (medscape.com)
The nerves bifurcated in the gluteal region and posterior thigh in 62 cadavers (77.5) and 18 in the pelvis (22.5). (bvsalud.org)
More than 22of all nerves leave the pelvis as two separate nerves and therefore the sciatic nerve trunk cannot be wholly traced or used for anesthetic block in the gluteal region or thigh for procedures in the leg and foot. (bvsalud.org)
Associating itself with the obturator, from which, however, it is quite separable, it appears in the abdomen at the medial side of the psoas muscle, and coursing over the pelvic brim behind the external iliac vessels, it leaves the obturator nerve, and enters the thigh in front of the os pubis. (co.ma)
The pain is typically in the lower back, gluteal region and/or the thigh. (thailandchiropractor.com)
The obturator vein travels between the adductor region of the thigh and the internal iliac vein entering the pelvis through the obturator foramen , along with the obturator artery and obturator nerve . (radiopaedia.org)
Superior Glute4
The Superior Gluteal Nerve ( n. glutæus superior ) arises from the dorsal divisions of the fourth and fifth lumbar and first sacral nerves: it leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen above the Piriformis, accompanied by the superior gluteal vessels, and divides into a superior and an inferior branch. (bartleby.com)
The superior gluteal nerve arises from the posterior divisions of the fourth and fifth lumbar and first sacral nerve roots. (medscape.com)
b) The deep terminal branch, accompanied by the superior gluteal nerve, runs forwards between the gluteus medius and minimus, and, after giving a nutrient branch to the ilium, subdivides into upper and lower branches. (co.ma)
The lower branch passes more directly forwards, across the gluteus minimus, towards the trochanter major, along with the branch of the superior gluteal nerve which supplies the tensor fascia latæ. (co.ma)
Posterior3
It leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen below the Piriformis, and gives off the branch to the Gemellus superior, which enters the upper part of the posterior surface of the muscle. (bartleby.com)
They then pass through the posterior sacral foramina, and anastomose on the back of the sacrum with branches of the superior and inferior gluteal arteries. (co.ma)
After giving off the iliolumbar and lateral sacral branches, the posterior division of the hypogastric artery is continued as the superior gluteal artery. (co.ma)
Plexus11
Intradural extension of gluteal lymphoma along the lumbar plexus has not been reported so far. (jmaacms.com)
The lumbosacral trunk and the ventral rami of the first 3 sacral nerves form the sacral plexus. (medscape.com)

Before leaving the pelvis the gluteal artery gives muscular branches to the pelvic diaphragm and the obturator internus, small neural branches to the roots of the sacral plexus, and nutrient branches to the hip-bone. (co.ma)
The lumbar plexus is a web of nerves (a nervous plexus ) in the lumbar region of the body which forms part of the larger lumbosacral plexus . (iiab.me)
Additionally, the ventral rami of the fourth lumbar nerve pass communicating branches, the lumbosacral trunk , to the sacral plexus . (iiab.me)
The obturator nerve leaves the lumbar plexus and descends behind psoas major on it medial side, then follows the linea terminalis into the lesser pelvis , and finally leaves the pelvic area through the obturator canal . (iiab.me)
Muscles11
Many of the leg's muscles are also adapted to bipedalism, most substantially the gluteal muscles, the extensors of the knee joint, and the calf muscles. (wikipedia.org)
Findings indicate the treatment reduced sensitivity to pain, particularly at the lower cervicals, gluteal muscles and near the greater trochanters. (91outcomes.com)
In the shoulder and hip regions, however, the bones are concealed beneath the large, powerful muscles that attach the limbs to the trunk, making the bone structure more difficult to evaluate. (equisearch.com)
Note that in the live horse, the gluteal muscles may bulge on either side of the sacral spines giving a rounded profile, so it is important to assess the slope of the croup (sacrum) on the midline between the gluteal muscles. (equisearch.com)
It leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen, below the piriformis, and runs down in front of the sciatic nerve, the gemelli, and the tendon of the obturator internus, then enters the anterior surfaces of the quadratus femoris and gemellus inferior muscles. (medscape.com)
Depending on the level of damage, pain symptoms can be located in all kinds of areas of the human body: in the lumbar or gluteal regions, hips, muscles of the shins. (osvilt.com)
PS may also be caused by shortening of the muscles due to the altered biomechanics of the lower limb, lower back and pelvic regions [7] . (bestbulksmsonline.com)
It leaves the pelvis through the upper part of the greater sciatic foramen, above the piriformis muscle, and enters the buttock, where it divides, under cover of the gluteus maximus and between the adjacent borders of the piriformis and gluteus medius muscles, into superficial and deep branches. (co.ma)
It supplies the gluteal muscles, and anastomoses with the ascending branch of the lateral circumflex artery. (co.ma)
2 , 3 Dynamic muscular support includes the rectus femoris, gluteal muscles, and short external rotators. (ochsnerjournal.org)
We have developed a therapeutic garment which works to reduce effects of hip dysplasia by stimulating the proprioceptive system in a strategic way to engage the gluteal, epaxial and abdominal muscles as the dog moves, with the goal of enhancing the dynamic stability of the hip joint, thereby reducing the pain and inflammation associated with hip dysplasia.

The parietal branches are the obturator, the internal pudendal, and the inferior gluteal. (co.ma)
Pelvis3
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbosacral spine and pelvis was done to evaluate the gluteal swelling and the patient's neurological symptoms. (jmaacms.com)
The internal pudendal artery (fig. 32-3 ) descends to the greater sciatic foramen, through which it leaves the pelvis. (dartmouth.edu)
Its smaller motor branches are distributed directly to psoas major, while the larger branches leave the muscle at various sites to run obliquely down through the pelvis to leave under the inguinal ligament with the exception of the obturator nerve which exits the pelvis through the obturator foramen . (iiab.me)
Spine2
There are many variations of this disease, but the most prevalent is radiculitis of the lumbosacral spine. (osvilt.com)
For radiculitis, which is caused by a disease such as osteochondrosis, external transformations of the body are also characteristic: rectification of the bend of the spine in the waist and neck, an increase in curvature of the spine with bulging behind in the thoracic region, deviation of the spine with swelling towards the lesion. (osvilt.com)
Fascia1
The treatment consisted of "massage-myofascial release at insertion of the temporal muscle, release of falx cerebri by frontal lift, release of tentorium cerebelli by synchronization of temporals, assisted release of cervical fascia, release of anterior thoracic wall, release of pectoral region, lumbosacral decompression, release of gluteal fascia, transversal sliding of wrist flexors and fingers and release of quadriceps fascia.
