| medial superior genicular artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, popliteal; distribution, knee joint; anastomoses, descending genicular, lateral superior genicular, i.e., the articular vascular network of the knee. Synonym: arteria genus superior medialis, medial superior genicular artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus cerebellaris superior | A large bundle of nerve fibres that originate from the dentate and interpositus nuclei and emerges from the cerebellum in the rostral direction, along the lateral wall of the fourth ventricle. The bundle submerges from the dorsal surface of the brainstem into the mesencephalic tegmentum, where all of its fibres cross in the massive decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncles. Part of the bundle terminates in the contralateral red nucleus; the bulk of the fibres continue rostrally to parts of the ventral intermediate nucleus of thalamus, ventral posterolateral nucleus of thalamus, and central lateral nucleus of thalamus. Synonym: pedunculus cerebellaris superior, brachium conjunctivum cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesenteric artery, superior | A large vessel supplying the whole length of the small intestine except the superior part of the duodenum. It also supplies the caecum and the ascending part of the colon and about half the transverse part of the colon. It arises from the anterior surface of the aorta below the coeliac artery at the level of the first lumbar vertebra. (12 Dec 1998) |

| right superior intercostal vein | <anatomy, vein> A tributary of the azygos vein formed by the union of the right second, third, and fourth posterior intercostal veins. Synonym: vena intercostalis superior dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein returning oxygenated blood from the superior and middle lobes of the right lung to the left atrium. Synonym: vena pulmonalis superior dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for superior petrosal sinus | A groove on the crest of the petrous portion of the temporal bone in which rests the superior petrosal sinus. Synonym: sulcus sinus petrosi superioris, superior petrosal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for superior sagittal sinus | The groove in the midline of the inner table of the calvaria lodging the superior sagittal sinus. Synonym: sulcus sinus sagittalis superioris, sagittal groove, sagittal sulcus, superior longitudinal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for superior vena cava | A groove on the surface of the right lung, above the hilum, in which runs the superior vena cava. Synonym: sulcus venae cavae cranialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gyrus frontalis superior | A broad convolution running in an anteroposterior direction on the medial edge of the convex surface and of each frontal lobe. Synonym: gyrus frontalis superior, marginal gyrus, superior frontal convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gyrus temporalis superior | A longitudinal gyrus on the lateral surface of the temporal lobe between the lateral (sylvian) fissure and the superior temporal sulcus. Synonym: gyrus temporalis superior, first temporal convolution, superior temporal convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| middle superior alveolar branch of infraorbital nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The middle superior alveolar branch, a branch of the superior alveolar nerve that contributes to the superior dental plexus. Synonym: ramus alveolaris superior medius nervi infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
