Figs. 490, 491.—Showing sensory loss and ordinary position in injiiries of the uhiar nerve (Bowlby). the nerve is divided within the abdomen; but high division may produceparalysis of the ihacus muscle. In anterior crural palsy the skin is anestheticover almost the entire thigh, the inner surface of the leg and foot, and the innersides of the first and second toes (Fig. 492). The Obturator Nerve.—In obturator palsy the adductor muscles of thethigh are paralyzed, and, in consequence, the patient is unable to cross oneleg over the other

The Obturator Nerve.—In obturator palsy the adductor muscles of thethigh are paralyzed, and, in consequence, the patient is unable to cross oneleg over the other. Gowers points out that external rotation of the thigh isalso interfered with. The Superior Gluteal Nerve.—The division of this nerve paralyzes the gluteusmedius and the gluteus minimus muscles, and there is loss of abduction andcircumduction of the thigh (Gowers). The Small Sciatic Nerve.—Division of this nerve paralyzes the gluteus maxi-mus muscle and produces anesthesia of the upper half of the calf of the leg andof the mid
