Educational Video created by Dr. Sanjoy Sanyal; Professor, Department Chair, Surgeon, Neuroscientist and Medical Informatician in the Western Hemisphere.
It shows the surgical anatomy of the Thigh Adductor (Medial) Compartment muscles. The specimen was harvested from a cadaver.
It also describes the 2 components of Adductor Magnus, their respective nerve supplies, and the surgical use of Gracilis in Anal Sphincter repair.
With real-time narration and relevant captions, it enhances the learning experience by means of a tri-modal learning style approach - Visual, Auditory, Textual.

Errata Corrigendum: Starting from 0.47 to 0.53, the muscle seen in the video and labeled as Adductor Magnus is actually the Gracilis. When we retract the Gracilis, we see the Adductor Magnus under it.
It is seen much more clearly in the posterior view later in this video.
