| musculus sphincter ductus choledochi | Smooth muscle sphincter of the common bile duct immediately proximal to the hepatopancreatic ampulla; it is this sphincter that controls the flow of bile in the duodenum. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus choledochi, Boyden's sphincter, choledochal sphincter, sphincter muscle of common bile duct. (05 Mar 2000) |

| musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici | Smooth muscle sphincter of the main pancreatic duct immediately proximal to the hepatoduodenal, ampulla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici, pancreatic sphincter, sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter oris | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, by nasolabial band from septum of the nose, by superior incisive bundle from incisor fossa of maxilla, by inferior incisive bundle from lower jaw each side of symphysis; insertion, fibres surround mouth between skin and mucous membrane of lips and cheeks, and are blended with other muscles; action, closes lips; nerve supply, facial. Synonym: musculus orbicularis oris, musculus sphincter oris, orbicular muscle of mouth, sphincter oris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter pupillae | A ring of smooth muscle fibres surrounding the pupillary border of the iris. Synonym: musculus sphincter pupillae, sphincter muscle of pupil. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter pylori | A thickening of the circular layer of the gastric musculature encircling the gastroduodenal junction. Synonym: musculus sphincter pylori, sphincter muscle of pylorus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter urethrae | Origin, ramus of pubis; insertion, with fellow in median raphe behind and in front of urethra; action, constricts membranous urethra; nerve supply, pudendal. Synonym: musculus sphincter urethrae, external urethral sphincter, Guthrie's muscle, musculus compressor urethrae, musculus constrictor urethrae, musculus sphincter urethrae membranaceae, sphincter muscle of urethra, Wilson's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter urethrae membranaceae | Origin, ramus of pubis; insertion, with fellow in median raphe behind and in front of urethra; action, constricts membranous urethra; nerve supply, pudendal. Synonym: musculus sphincter urethrae, external urethral sphincter, Guthrie's muscle, musculus compressor urethrae, musculus constrictor urethrae, musculus sphincter urethrae membranaceae, sphincter muscle of urethra, Wilson's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter vaginae | <anatomy> In the male: origin, the perineal membrane fascia on the dorsum of the bulb of the penis; insertion, central tendon of the perineum and the median raphe on the free surface of the bulb; action, constricts bulbous urethra when attempting to expel last drops following urination, or spasmodically with ejaculation to expel semen. In the female: origin, the dorsum of the clitoris, the corpus cavernosum, and the perineal membrane; insertion, central tendon of the perineum; action, acts as a weak sphincter of the vagina; when developed, is a part of "cross-member musculature" of pelvic floor which resists prolapse of pelvic viscera. Nerve supply, pudendal (deep perineal branch). Synonym: musculus bulbospongiosus, musculus bulbocavernosus, musculus ejaculator seminis, musculus sphincter vaginae, sphincter vaginae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus sphincter vesicae | The complete collar of smooth muscle cells of the neck of the urinary bladder which extend distally to surround the preprostatic sportion of the male urethra. There is not a comparable structure in the neck of the femoral bladder; the internal urethral sphincter may exist to prevent reflux of semen into bladder. Synonym: annulus urethralis, internal urethral sphincter, musculus sphincter vesicae, preprostate urethral sphincter, proximal urethral sphincter, sphincter muscle of urinary bladder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myovascular sphincter | A sphincter having a muscular and a vascular (usually venous) component. See: myovenous sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myovenous sphincter | A sphincter having a muscular and a venous component, e.g., at the pharyngoesophageal junction and anal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| postpyloric sphincter | The duodenal portion of the sphincter or closing mechanism of the gastroduodenal pylorus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prepapillary sphincter | A sphincter of duodenum described in the location oral to the major duodenal papilla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| preprostate urethral sphincter | The complete collar of smooth muscle cells of the neck of the urinary bladder which extend distally to surround the preprostatic sportion of the male urethra. There is not a comparable structure in the neck of the femoral bladder; the internal urethral sphincter may exist to prevent reflux of semen into bladder. Synonym: annulus urethralis, internal urethral sphincter, musculus sphincter vesicae, preprostate urethral sphincter, proximal urethral sphincter, sphincter muscle of urinary bladder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prepyloric sphincter | A band of circular muscular fibres in the wall of the stomach near the gastroduodenal pylorus. (05 Mar 2000) |
