The adductor canal is an intermuscular tunnel situated on the medial side of the middle one-third of the thigh.

Boundaries
The adductor canal is triangular in cross section.
Anterolateral wall: It is formed by vastus medialis.
Posterior (floor): It is formed by adductor longus above and adductor magnus below.
Medial (roof): It if formed by a strong fibrous membrane stretching across the anterolateral and posterior boundaries. The roof is overlapped by the sartorius muscle.
Contents
1. Femoral artery.
2. Femoral vein.
3. Saphenous nerve.
4. Nerve to vastus medialis.
5. Anterior and posterior divisions of the obturator nerve (occasional).
