obliquus

The vastus medialis obliquus (VMO), a teardroplike muscle on the inside of your thigh, works together with the flashier VL (vastus lateralis muscle) on the outside to hold the patella in place as the joint bends, so I take advantage of the thigh adduction and abduction machines, and my physical therapist showed me how to set the hip machine for a slow, careful quad workout.

The medial and deeper portion of the muscle is very small, and arises from the ulnar side of the first metacarpal bone between the Adductor pollicis (obliquus) and the lateral head of the first Interosseous dorsalis, and is inserted into the ulnar side of the base of the first phalanx with the Adductor pollicis (obliquus).

It lies upon the carpal extremities of the metacarpal bones and on the Interossei, being covered by the Adductor pollicis obliquus, the Flexor tendons of the fingers, and the Lumbricales.

The Adductor obliquus may receive a slip from the transverse metacarpal ligament.

The Adductor pollicis (obliquus) (Adductor obliquus pollicis) arises by several slips from the capitate bone, the bases of the second and third metacarpals, the intercarpal ligaments, and the sheath of the tendon of the Flexor carpi radialis.

The arteria princeps pollicis arises from the radial just as it turns medialward to the deep part of the hand; it descends between the first Interosseous dorsalis and Adductor pollicis obliquus, along the ulnar side of the metacarpal bone of the thumb to the base of the first phalanx, where it lies beneath the tendon of the Flexor pollicis longus and divides into two branches.

The Adductor hallucis (Adductor obliquus hallucis) arises by two heads—oblique and transverse.

These make their appearance between the medial and lateral insertions of the Adductor pollicis obliquus, and run along the sides of the thumb, forming on the volar surface of the last phalanx an arch, from which branches are distributed to the integument and subcutaneous tissue of the thumb.

VI. The Arteries. 4b. 3. The Radial Artery 1918

The volar surface is narrow, rounded, and rough, for the attachment of ligaments and a part of the Adductor pollicis obliquus.
