Description[edit | edit source]
Prime mover for screw home movement with Vastus Lateralis.
Origin[edit | edit source]
Medial side of femur
Insertion[edit | edit source]
Quadirceps tendon
Action[edit | edit source]
Increase mechanical advantage of knee joint to perform knee extention by other heads of quadriceps.
Function[edit | edit source]
Increase mechanical advantage of knee joint to perform knee extention by other heads of quadriceps.
Other Important Information[edit | edit source]
Is it a real muscle or a gost?[edit | edit source]
For physiotherapist vastus medialis oblique (VMO) is a well known muscle. But some anatomist do not accept VMO as real muscle. The first paper I have seen was a letter to editor [ref needed]. In this letter it is clearly stated that VMO is not an independent muscle. It is a part of vastus medilis.
Recent years the topic is still unclear. You can find a list of articles below;
- Smith TO, Nichols R, Harle D, Donell ST.
