VASTUS MEDIALIS OBLIQUE: AN ANATOMIC AND PHYSIOLOGIC STUDY
Orthopedics, 1980ABSTRACT: The lower part of the vastus medialis, which originates chiefly from the tendon of the adductor magnus, has been designated as the "vastus medialis oblique." This muscle is peculiar to man. The fibers of the muscle are mostly horizontal; therefore they are in a unique position to stabilize the patella against the femur in the later stages of ...

Differential activation of the vastus medialis and the vastus medialis oblique in individuals with and without patellofemoral pain syndrome [PDF]
, 2019 An imbalance of medial and lateral quadriceps control can lead to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS). The incidence rate of PFPS is twice as high in females than in males. The aims of this research were to investigate sex differences in quadriceps neuromuscular control and motor unit recruitment properties in healthy individuals comparing to those ...

Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 2009 Debate exists as to whether the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) can be activated to a greater degree than the vastus lateralis to produce preferential strengthening. This systematic review aims to determine whether preferential activation of VMO can be achieved by altering lower limb joint orientation or muscular co-contraction.

Menstrual Cycle Mediates Vastus Medialis and Vastus Medialis Oblique Muscle Activity
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, 2013Sports medicine professionals commonly describe two functionally different units of the vastus medialis (VM), the VM, and the vastus medialis oblique (VMO), but the anatomical support is equivocal. The functional difference of the VMO is principle to rehabilitation programs designed to alleviate anterior knee pain, a pathology that is known to have a ...

The purpose of this study was to determine whether the vastus medialis oblique muscle (VMO) had greater electrical activity than the vastus lateralis muscle (VL) when hip adduction and medial (internal) tibial rotation exercises were performed. Electrical activity of the VMO and VL was measured on 25 healthy subjects during maximal-effort isometric ...

The Journal of Arthroplasty, 2008
Minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty requires subluxation of patella laterally without eversion. The anatomy of the vastus medialis oblique muscle (VMO), which affects the surgical exposure of minimally invasive total knee arthroplasty, was investigated. There was no significant difference between men and women with respect to any parameter.

Study Design Cross-sectional. Objectives To determine if quadriceps atrophy was present in people with patellofemoral pain (PFP), and whether the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) was selectively involved. Background Despite the lack of research investigating individual quadriceps muscle size in individuals with PFP, it has been suggested that selective ...

AbstractFatigue rates of the vastus medialis oblique and vastus lateralis muscles were compared from static and dynamic exercise. Based upon clinical observations, it was expected that the vastus medialis oblique would demonstrate greater fatigability than the vastus lateralis.
