The adductor magnus muscle arises from the ramus inferior to the pubic bone to the tuber ischiadicum. The part that originates at the pubic bone is also called the adductor minimus muscle. The proximal fibers insert at the lambium mediale of the linea aspera. The attachment of the distal fibers is at the linea supracondylaris medialis as well as the tuberculum adductorium of the epicondylus medialis. This creates a reed, the hiatus adductorius, between the two attachments. The adductor magnus muscle, together with the vastus meialis muscle and the adductor longus muscle, forms the adductor canal (canalis adductorius). The femoral artery and the femoral vein pass through this canal.
