| patello-adductor reflex | Crossed adduction of the leg on tapping the quadriceps tendon. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| great adductor muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, ischial tuberosity and ischiopubic ramus; insertion, linea aspera and adductor tubercle of femur; action, adducts and extends thigh; nerve supply, obturator and sciatic. Synonym: musculus adductor magnus, great adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscle, adductor | Any muscle that pulls inward toward the midline of the body. For example, the adductor muscles of the leg serve to pull the legs together. The opposite of adductor is abductor. To keep these similar sounding terms straight, medical students learn to speak of a b ductors versus a d ductors. (12 Dec 1998) |
| musculus adductor brevis | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, superior ramus of pubis; insertion, upper third of medial lip of linea aspera; action, adducts thigh; nerve supply, obturator. Synonym: musculus adductor brevis, short adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus adductor hallucis | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, by two heads, the transverse head from the capsules of the lateral four metatarsophalangeal joints and the oblique head from the lateral cuneiform and bases of the third and fourth metatarsal bones; insertion, lateral side of base of proximal phalanx of great toe; action, adducts great toe; nerve supply, lateral plantar. Synonym: musculus adductor hallucis, adductor muscle of great toe. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus adductor magnus | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, ischial tuberosity and ischiopubic ramus; insertion, linea aspera and adductor tubercle of femur; action, adducts and extends thigh; nerve supply, obturator and sciatic. Synonym: musculus adductor magnus, great adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus adductor minimus | <anatomy> A small flat muscle constituting the upper portion of the adductor magnus, insertion, the space above linea aspera. Synonym: musculus adductor minimus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus adductor pollicis | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, by two heads, the transverse head from the shaft of the third metacarpal and the oblique head from the front of the base of the second metacarpal, the trapezoid and capitate bones; insertion, medial side of base of proximal phalanx of thumb; action, adducts thumb; nerve supply, ulnar. Synonym: musculus adductor pollicis, adductor muscle of thumb. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crossed adductor jerk | Contraction of the adductors of the thigh and inward rotation of the limb elicited by tapping the sole. Synonym: crossed adductor jerk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crossed adductor reflex | Contraction of the adductors of the thigh and inward rotation of the limb elicited by tapping the sole. Synonym: crossed adductor jerk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crossed spino-adductor reflex | Contraction of the contralateral adductors of the thigh upon tapping the anterior superior iliac spine. Synonym: crossed spino-adductor reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| short adductor muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, superior ramus of pubis; insertion, upper third of medial lip of linea aspera; action, adducts thigh; nerve supply, obturator. Synonym: musculus adductor brevis, short adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spino-adductor reflex | Contraction of the adductors of the thigh upon tapping the spinal column. Synonym: McCarthy's reflexes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| long adductor muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, symphysis and crest of pubis; insertion, middle third of medial lip of linea aspera of femur; action, adducts, flexes and laterally rotates the thigh; nerve supply, obturator. Synonym: musculus adductor longus, long adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| abductor pollicis longus | <anatomy> Origin, interosseous membrane and posterior surfaces of radius and ulna; insertion, lateral side of base of first metacarpal bone; action, abducts and assists in extending thumb; nerve supply, radial. Synonym: musculus abductor pollicis longus, long abductor muscle of thumb, musculus extensor ossis metacarpi pollicis. (05 Mar 2000) |
