The iliohypogastric nerve is a branch of the lumbar plexus. It innervates the external and internal oblique muscles, transversus abdominis (abdominal muscles), and provides sensory innervation to the skin over the inferior abdomen and buttocks. The obturator nerve mainly innervates the medial thigh muscles. The ilioinguinal nerve has a more limited distribution related to the groin area. The genitofemoral nerve is involved in genital and femoral region innervation.
