s and the round pronator from theinternal epicondyle. Deep flexormuscles from shafts of the radiusand ulna, and median nerve be-tween the superficial and deepgroups. Posterior.—Extensormuscles and the short supinatorfrom the external epicondyle.Lateral or radial side, hrachio-radialis from the external epi-condylar ridge. The hand. Palm.—Observethe thenar eminence of thumbmuscles; the hypothenar emi-nence of little-finger muscles,and between them the hollow ofthe hand, where the long flexortendons lie. The deep palmararch is underneath the tendons;the superficial arch lies uponthem; the strong palmar fasciaholds the tendons in a compart-ment lined with synovial mem-brane. Dorsum.—The extensortendons are plainly seen. Theradial artery may be felt in theanatomic snuff-box (betweentwo of the extensors of thethumb as it winds around thefirst metacarpal bone to reachthe deep palm) (Fig. 212). The long flexor and extensortendons of the fingers may beplainly felt and seen at the wrist.

Deep branch Posteriorinterosseous Fig. 213.—The Arm and Forearm,Posterior. The lower extremity.—Theinguinal ligament stretches fromthe spine of the ilium to the tubercle of the pubes. THE THIGH. THE LEG. 307 The femoral artery, femoral vein, 2ind femoral nerve pass under theligament, the artery lying on the psoas muscle. Their order fromthe medial side outward is V-ein, A-rtery, N-erve. From the hip down, the anterior surface is al-ternately j?exor and extensor The posterior surface is exactly the reverse. Flexor for hip.Extensor for knee.Flexor for ankle.Extensor for toes. Extensor for hip.Flexor for knee.Extensor for ankle.Flexor for toes. Thigh.—Anterior and sides of the femur are covered by thequadriceps muscle, which extends the knee. The sartorius musclecrosses from the anterior spine of the ilium to the middle of themedial side of the thigh and down to the tibia, and when it contractsit makes a depression rather than an elevation, because it binds thesoft tissue under it.
