| lateral cord of brachial plexus | In the brachial plexus, the bundle of nerve fibres formed by the anterior divisions of the superior and middle trunks which is located lateral to the axillary artery. This cord gives off the lateral pectoral nerve and terminates by dividing into the musculocutaneous nerve and the lateral root of the median nerve. Synonym: fasciculus lateralis plexus brachialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral corticospinal tract | Those fibres of the pyramidal tract that cross to the opposite side in the pyramidal decussation and descend in the dorsal half of the lateral funiculus of the spinal cord; they are distributed throughout the length of the spinal cord to interneurons of the zona intermedia of the spinal gray matter. See: pyramidal tract. Synonym: tractus corticospinalis lateralis, tractus pyramidalis lateralis, crossed pyramidal tract, fasciculus corticospinalis lateralis, fasciculus pyramidalis lateralis, lateral corticospinal tract, lateral pyramidal fasciculus.

| lateral costal branch of internal thoracic artery | <anatomy, artery> A variable branch of internal thoracic artery that runs lateral and parallel to the internal thoracic artery on the deep surface of the rib cage; anastomosis: posterior intercostal arteries. Synonym: ramus costalis lateralis arteriae thoracicae internae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fossa of lateral malleolus | A large rough depression on the medial aspect of the lower end of the fibula just behind the articular facet for the talus giving attachment to the posterior talofibular and the transverse tibiofibular ligaments. Synonym: fossa malleoli lateralis, digital fossa, fossa malleoli fibulae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral costotransverse ligament | <anatomy> The short quadrangular ligament, actually a thickening of the posterior aspect of the costotransverse joint, extending from the tip of the transverse process to the posterior surface of the neck of the rib. Synonym: ligamentum costotransversarium laterale, ligamentum costotransversarium posterius, ligamentum tuberculi costae, posterior costotransverse ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cricoarytenoid | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, upper margin of arch of cricoid cartilage; insertion, muscular process of arytenoid; action, adducts vocal folds (narrows rima glottidis); nerve supply, recurrent laryngeal. Synonym: musculus cricoarytenoideus lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| lateral crus of horizontal part of the facial canal | Laterally-placed, posteriorly-directed second portion of the horizontal part of the facial canal. See: horizontal part of facial canal. Synonym: lateral crus of horizontal part of the facial canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral crus of the greater alar cartilage of the nose | Portion of cartilage extending laterally and posteriorly in a wing-like fashion, supporting the wing of the nose and keeping the nostril patent. Synonym: crus laterale cartilaginis alaris majoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral crus of the superficial inguinal ring | Portion of the external oblique aponeurosis which passes lateral to the superficial inguinal ring blending into the inguinal ligament and forming the lateral boundary of the ring. Synonym: crus laterale anuli inguinalis superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cuneate nucleus | A cell group lateral to the cuneate nucleus which receives posterior-root fibres corresponding to the proprioceptive innervation of the arm and hand; it projects to the cerebellum by way of the cuneocerebellar tract, and can be considered the upper-extremity equivalent of the thoracic nucleus. Synonym: nucleus cuneatus accessorius, external cuneate nucleus, lateral cuneate nucleus, Monakow's nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cuneiform bone | A bone of the distal row of the tarsus; it articulates with the intermediate cuneiform, cuboid, navicular, and second, third, and fourth metatarsal bones. Synonym: os cuneiforme laterale, third cuneiform bone, wedge bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
