Research Abstract |
Cadaveric specimens were investigated their muscle bundles’ architecture in detail with special reference to its functionalaspect. The pectoralis major and minor had twisted muscle architecture. These pectoralmuscles’ architecture can be used for respiratory posture. The adductor magnus, longus, vastus medialis and intermuscular septum of adductor and vastus were investigated. These muscles’ architectures were suggested that a part of adductors was thought to be acting as the knee extensor through attachment of the intermuscular septum. In addition, the gluteal fascia connected the gluteus maximus and external sphincter of anus, suggesting that this fascia interact with gluteus maxumus and external sphincter.
