The quadriceps femoris (/ˈkwɒdrᵻsɛpsˈfɛmərᵻs/) (Latin for "four-headed muscle of the femur"), also called simply the quadriceps, quadriceps extensor, or quads, is a large muscle group that includes the four prevailing muscles on the front of the thigh. It is the great extensor muscle of the knee, forming a large fleshy mass which covers the front and sides of the femur.
Structure
It is subdivided into four separate portions or 'heads', which have received distinctive names:
Rectus femoris occupies the middle of the thigh, covering most of the other three quadriceps muscles. It originates on the ilium. It is named from its straight course.
The other three lie deep to rectus femoris and originate from the body of the femur, which they cover from the trochanters to the condyles:
Vastus lateralis is on the lateral side of the femur (i.e. on the outer side of the thigh).
Vastus medialis is on the medial side of the femur (i.e. on the inner part thigh).
Vastus intermedius lies between vastus lateralis and vastus medialis on the front of the femur (i.e. on the top or front of the thigh), but deep to the rectus femoris. Typically, it cannot be seen without dissection of the rectus femoris.

The quadriceps femoris muscle is a four-headed muscle of the thigh which almost completely covers the femur. It ranks among the strongest muscles in the human body. It significantly forms the lateral contours and the ventral side of the thigh. Its innervation is carried by the femoral nerve. If we look closely, we can see that the quadriceps femoris can be split into 4 muscles: the rectus femoris muscle, vastus medialis muscle, vastus lateralis muscle, and vastus intermedius muscle.
The quadriceps tendon runs above the ventral side, and through the periosteum of the patella, and finally inserts at the tuberosity of the tibia. The part below the patellar apex is known as the patellar ligament. In terms of location, the quadriceps is considered to be one of the ventral thigh muscles. As for function, the quadriceps is the only extensor of the knee joint. It plays an important role in every movement involving the stretching of the knee. And in addition, it keeps the knee from buckling when standing.
On this video, we will cover the following points about the quadriceps femoris:
0:05 general anatomy of the quadriceps femoris
0:56 rectus femoris muscle
1:17 vastus medialis muscle
1:47 vastus lateralis muscle
2:14 vastus intermedius muscle
2:48 quadriceps tendon
3:08 quadriceps femoris functions
