Explanation:

1) Pertaining to the thigh is the femoral region. The femoral region derives its name from the femur which is a long bone present in the thigh region. The head of the femur articulates proximally with the hip bone at the hip joint or acetabulofemoral joint. The distal end of the femur articulates at the knee joint. The femoral region also has several other structures like the hamstring muscles and the femoral artery.
