This document summarizes the origin, insertion, action, and innervation of 4 caudal thigh muscles in the pelvic limb:
1. The biceps femoris originates from the sacrotuberous ligament and ischiatic tuberosity, and inserts into the patella, patellar ligament, and cranial border of the tibia. It extends the hip, stifle, and hock, and flexes the stifle.
2. The caudal crural abductor originates from the sacrotuberous ligament and inserts into the crural fascia, abducting the hip.
3. The semitendinosus originates from the
