What Is the Semimembranosus?

The hemimenis muscle is located on the back of the thigh and on the deep side of the semitendinosus muscle. The flattened aponeurosis starts from the ischial tuberosity and ends behind the medial condyle of the tibia. The main role is to extend the hip joint, flex the knee joint and rotate slightly. Sciatic innervation.
