| phrenic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The motor nerve of the diaphragm. The phrenic nerve fibres originate in the cervical spinal column (mostly c4) and travel through the cervical plexus to the diaphragm. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phrenic nucleus | A nucleus comprised of motor neurons located in medial areas of the ventral horn of the spinal cord from about C3 to C6; axons of neurons in this nucleus innervate the diaphragm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phrenic pleura | The layer of parietal pleura covering the upper surface of the diaphragm, except along its costal attachments and where it is covered with the pericardium. Synonym: pleura diaphragmatica, phrenic pleura, pleura phrenica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phrenic plexus | Plexus phrenicus, an autonomic plexus surrounding the inferior phrenic artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phrenic pressure test | Pressure is made on the phrenic nerve on each side, above the clavicles where the nerve passes over the scalenus anticus muscle; if pain is felt and the patient inclines his head to the painful side, the problem is in the pleural space; if his head does not incline to one side, the problem is in the abdominal cavity.

| phreniclasia | Crushing of a section of the phrenic nerve to produce a temporary paralysis of the diaphragm. Synonym: phrenemphraxis, phrenicotripsy. Origin: phreni-+ G. Klasis, a breaking away (05 Mar 2000) |
| phrenicoabdominal branch of phrenic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Terminal branches of phrenic nerve providing motor innervation of diaphragm and sensory innervation to the diaphragm and the diaphragmatic pleura and peritoneum. Synonym: rami phrenicoabdominales nervi phrenici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phrenicocolic | Relating to the diaphragm and the colon. Synonym: phrenocolic. (05 Mar 2000) |

| phrenicocostal sinus | The cleftlike extension of the pleural cavity between the diaphragm and the rib cage; pleural effusions collect here when in the upright position, and since the lung only partially enters, this is the site of thoracocentesis. Synonym: recessus costodiaphragmaticus, phrenicocostal sinus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| phrenologist |
Phrenology (from Greek: φρην, mind and λογος, study) is a theory which claims to be able to determine character, personality traits, and criminality on the basis of the shape of the head (reading "bumps"). Developed by German physician Franz Joseph Gall around 1800, and very popular in the 19th century, it is now discredited as a pseudoscience. ...

| phrygian cap |
The Phrygian cap or Liberty cap is a soft conical cap with the top pulled forward, worn by the inhabitants of Phrygia, a region of central Anatolia in antiquity. In vase-paintings and other Greek art, the Phrygian cap serves to identify the Trojan hero Paris as non-Greek; Roman poets habitually use the epithet "Phrygian" to mean Trojan. The Phrygian cap can also be seen on the Trajan's Column carvings, worn by the Dacians, and on the Arch of Severus worn by the Parthians. ...

| phrenic nerve |
The phrenic nerve arises from spinal nerves C3, C4 and C5. It provides motor innervation to the diaphragm and is thus responsible for the act of breathing. It also provides sensory innervation for many components of the mediastinum and pleura, as well as the upper abdomen, especially the liver and gall bladder. Pain arising from structures served by the phrenic nerve is often "referred" to other somatic regions served by spinal nerves C3-C5. ...
