Fascia lata
The
fascia lata
is the
deep fascia
of the
thigh
. It encloses the thigh muscles and forms the outer limit of the
fascial compartments of thigh
, which are internally separated by
intermuscular septa
. The fascia lata is thickened at its
lateral
side where it forms the
iliotibial tract
, a structure that runs to the
tibia
and serves as a site of muscle attachment.
