GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Sacral plexus, anterior view. The nerves forming the sacral plexus converge toward the lower part of the greater sciatic foramen and unite to form a flattened band. The band continues primarily as the sciatic nerve, which splits in the back of the thigh into the tibial nerve and common fibular nerve.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sciatic nerve is the terminal and largest branch of the sacral plexus formed from both anterior and posterior divisions of the anterior rami of spinal nerves L4 to S3. The nerve exits the pelvic cavity by way of the greater sciatic foramen.

Detailed explanation-3: -In human anatomy, the sacral plexus is a nerve plexus which provides motor and sensory nerves for the posterior thigh, most of the lower leg and foot, and part of the pelvis. It is part of the lumbosacral plexus and emerges from the lumbar vertebrae and sacral vertebrae (L4-S4).

Detailed explanation-4: -It’s a mixed nerve, which means it has both motor (movement) and sensory (sensation) fibers. The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in your body and is the major nerve to your leg. It allows you to walk, run and even stand.

Detailed explanation-5: -Sciatic Nerve (L4-S3) Pudendal Nerve (ventral divisions of S2-S4) Superior Gluteal Nerve (dorsal divisions of L4-S1) Inferior Gluteal Nerve (dorsal divisions of L5-S2) Nerve to Obturator Internus (ventral divisions of L5-S2) More items
