Which landmark is located middle inside of the thigh?

The concept here is understanding anatomical terms by region. The thigh is the area between the hip and knee, and the central bone in that region is the femur. Terms that include the root “femor-” (femoral) describe structures related to the thigh. The other terms point to areas outside the thigh: hypoglossal relates to the tongue, infraorbital to the eye socket, and peroneal to the fibular side of the leg. So the term that designates a landmark in the middle of the thigh is femoral.
