| DCML | dorsal column medial lemniscus |
|---|---|
| IMM | inhibitor-containing minimal medium; internal medial malleolus |
| LMR | left medial rectus [muscle]; localized magnetic resonance; lymphocytic meningpolyradiculitis |
| MBFC | medial brachial fascial compartment |
| MBH | medial basal hypothalamus |
| malleolar articular surface of fibula | The surface on the medial aspect of the lateral malleolus that articulates with the talus. Synonym: facies articularis malleoli fibulae. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| malleolar articular surface of tibia | The articular facet on the lateral surface of the medial malleolus for articulation with the side of the talus; it is continuous with the inferior articular surface of the tibia. Synonym: facies articularis malleoli tibiae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| malleolar sulcus | A broad groove on the posterior surface of the medial malleolus, through which the tendon of the tibialis posterior muscle runs. Synonym: sulcus malleolaris, malleolar sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external malleolar sign | <clinical sign> When the external malleolar skin area is irritated, extension of the great toe occurs in cases of organic disease of the corticospinal reflex paths. Synonym: Chaddock reflex, external malleolar sign. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral malleolar arteries | Lateral malleolar branches of peroneal artery. Synonym: rami malleolares laterales, arteriae malleolares posteriores laterales, posterior peroneal arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral malleolar bursa | <anatomy> The bursa between the lateral malleolus and the skin. Synonym: bursa subcutanea malleoli lateralis, lateral malleolus bursa, subcutaneous bursa of lateral malleolus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral malleolar ligament | <anatomy> See: anterior tibiofibular ligament, posterior tibiofibular ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral malleolar network | A network over the lateral malleolus formed by branches of the posterior lateral malleolar, anterior lateral malleolar, peroneal, and lateral tarsal arteries. Synonym: rete malleolare laterale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral malleolar surface of talus | That surface of the trochlea of the talus that articulates with the lateral malleolus of the fibula. Synonym: facies malleolaris lateralis tali. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior auricular branches of superficial temporal artery | <anatomy, artery> Distribution, auricle, earlobe and external acoustic meatus. Synonym: rami auriculares anteriores arteriae temporalis superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior cutaneous branches of intercostal nerves | Medial mammary branches of anterior cutaneous branches of ventral primary rami of thoracic spinal nerves. See: medial mammary branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior intercostal branches of internal thoracic artery | One of the arteries supplying the anterior portions of the intercostal spaces of the thoracic wall. Anterior intercostal arteries 1-6 arise as branches of the internal thoracic artery; 7-11 arise as branches of the musculophrenic artery. Synonym: rami intercostales anteriores, rami intercostalis anteriores arteria thoracica interna. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior superior alveolar branches of infraorbital nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The branches of the superior alveolar nerve that supply the incisors, canines, premolars, and first molar by their contributions to the superior dental plexus. Synonym: rami alveolares superiores anteriores nervi infraorbitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anteromedial central branches | Branches of the anterior communicating artery which supply part of the hypothalamus. Synonym: rami centrales anteromediales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| articular branches | Branches distributed to joints. Almost any vessel related to a joint will supply articular rami. Most joints receive articular branches from the intramuscular branches of the motor nerves innervating the muscles crossing the joint (see Hilton's law). at this printing, Nomina Anatomica, however, specifically recognises only the articular branches of the descending genicular artery, ramus articulares arteriae descendentis genicularis; supplying the knee joint. Synonym: rami articulares, joint branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
