Dissection of the medial-deep hindlimb.

<p>(<b>A</b>) Superficial layer of the adductor muscles is removed. The deep femoral artery running distally and sending branches to the external obturator muscle, adductor muscles, and medial hamstring muscles can be seen (5). (<b>B</b>) Enlarged view of A. The external obturator muscle is divided from the pubis to expose the obturator artery (12). (<b>C</b>) Vascular networks in the quadriceps femoris muscle, medial hamstring muscles, and adductor muscles can be seen through the muscles (arrowheads).
