| Abstract: | As demonstrates the investigation of 100 preparations, the main vascular-nervous "hilus" of the muscle is situated on the superior third of its lateral part. They contain the transversal branch of the medial artery, circumflexing the femoral bone with the accompanying vein, having the same name, and the anterior branch of the obturative nerve (92 preparations), or muscle branch of the femoral nerve (8 preparations). The muscle has a well developed network of intrasystemic and intersystemic anastomoses. Beginning from the first period of childhood, for sphincter plasticity either the whole muscle, or a graft, cut out from its lateral part, can be used. |
