Increase mechanical advantage of knee joint to perform knee extention by other heads of quadriceps.


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&nbsp;have seen was a letter to editor [ref needed].&nbsp;In this letter&nbsp;it is clearly stated that VMO&nbsp;is not an independent muscle. It is a part of&nbsp;vastus medilis.&nbsp;

Recent years the topic is still unclear.&nbsp; You can find a list of articles below;<br>
