Knee nerve plexus, artwork C016 / 6807
Knee nerve plexus. Artwork of the nerves (yellow), arteries (red), veins (blue), and muscles (brown) of the rear of the knee. The nerves are the common peroneal nerve (right), the tibial nerve (left), and branches of the suralis nerve (bottom). These are the nerves targeted in a popliteal sciatic nerve block. The blood vessels are the popliteal artery and popliteal vein. This is the right knee. For the left knee, see C016/6806

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate network of nerves, arteries, veins, and muscles that make up the knee nerve plexus. Against a white background, the detailed illustration highlights various anatomical structures in vibrant colors. The yellow nerves take center stage, with the common peroneal nerve on the right side and the tibial nerve on the left side. Branches of the suralis nerve can be seen at the bottom. The blood vessels are represented by red arteries and blue veins, specifically identified as popliteal artery and popliteal vein respectively. These vital pathways supply oxygenated blood to surrounding tissues while removing waste products. The artwork primarily focuses on providing a visual understanding of this complex neural network targeted during a popliteal sciatic nerve block procedure. It serves as an educational tool for medical professionals studying neurology or performing interventions related to this area. In addition to its scientific value, this image also captures the beauty of human anatomy. The brown muscles add depth and texture to the composition, including notable ones such as biceps femoris muscle, lateral head of gastrocnemius muscle, medial head of gastrocnemius muscle, gracilis muscle, plantaris muscle, sartorius muscle , semimembranosus muscle, and semitendinosus muscle. Overall, this remarkable artwork offers insight into both normal anatomy and neurological aspects associated with knee function. It is undoubtedly an invaluable resource for those seeking knowledge about knee structure or conducting research in related fields.
