Occasionally the communicating branch to the anterior cutaneous and saphenous branches of the femoral is continued down as a cutaneous branch to the thigh and leg as the cutaneous branch of the obturator nerve.When this is so it emerges from beneath the lower border of the Adductor longus descends along the posterior margin of the sartorius to the medial side of the knee where it pierces the deep fascia communicates with the saphenous nerve and is distributed to the skin of the tibial side of the leg as low down as its middle.
