| 영문 | smooth muscle | 한글 | 민무늬근육, 평활근육 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 근육 중에서 가로무늬가 없는 근. 가로무늬근에 대응되는 말이다. 척추동물에서는 심장근 이외의 내장근은 모두가 민무늬근이다. 많은 내장장기의 벽에 분포되어 있으며, 대개 돌림층과 세로층의 두 층으로 배열되어 있다. 소화관이나 요관 같은 관모양의 구조에서는 꿈틀운동을 일으켜 내용물이 아래로 내려가게 하는 작용을 한다. 항문관, 위, 요도 등에서는 돌림층의 근육이 특히 두꺼워져 내용물이 내려가는 것을 조절하는 조임근육이 형성되어 있다. 혈관에는 돌림층만 있으며, 혈관을 수축하여 혈액을 쥐어짜는 작용을 한다. 또한 자율신경의 지배를 받으며, 우리의 의지와 관계없이 작용한다. |

| 영문 | voluntary muscle | 한글 | 수의근 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 의지의 힘으로 움직일 수 있는 근육. 골격근 외에 피부 내의 피근, 관절주머니에 부착하고 있는 관절근 등이 여기에 속한다. 수의근의 근섬유에는 가로무늬가 있으므로 가로무늬근이라고도 하나, 심장근은 가로 무늬가 있어도 수의근이 아니므로 수의근과 가로무늬근은 동의어는 아니다. 수의근의 운동은 민무늬근보다 빠르다. 수의근이라 해도 골격근 등은 근육무리로서 움직일 수 있으나, 개개의 근육은 따로따로 마음대로 움직이게 할 수 없다. 귓바퀴근육은 사람의 경우 발육이 나빠 마음대로 움직이게 하기 어렵다. |

| great sciatic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (l4 to s3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the tibial nerve and the peroneal nerve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| companion artery to sciatic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Origin, inferior gluteal; distribution, sciatic nerve; anastomoses, branches of profunda femoris. Synonym: arteria comitans nervi ischiadici, companion artery to sciatic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to the hip; in the region of, or affecting, the hip; ischial; ischiatic; as, the sciatic nerve, sciatic pains. Origin: F. Sciatique, LL. Sciaticus, from L. Inschiadicus, Gr. See Ischiadic. <medicine> Sciatica. Origin: Cf. F. Sciatique. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| sciatic foramen | Either of two foramina formed by the sacrospinous and sacrotuberous ligaments crossing the sciatic notches of the hip bone: greater sciatic foramen and lesser sciatic foramen. Synonym: foramen ischiadicum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic hernia | Protrusion of intestine through the great sacrosciatic foramen. Synonym: gluteal hernia, ischiocele. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve which originates in the lumbar and sacral spinal cord (l4 to s3) and supplies motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremity. The sciatic nerve, which is the main continuation of the sacral plexus, is the largest nerve in the body. It has two major branches, the tibial nerve and the peroneal nerve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sciatic neuralgia | A syndrome characterised by pain radiating from the back into the buttock and into the lower extremity along its posterior or lateral aspect and most commonly caused by prolapse of the intervertebral disk, the term is also used to refer to pain anywhere along the course of the sciatic nerve. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sciatic neuritis | A syndrome characterised by pain radiating from the back into the buttock and into the lower extremity along its posterior or lateral aspect and most commonly caused by prolapse of the intervertebral disk, the term is also used to refer to pain anywhere along the course of the sciatic nerve. (18 Nov 1997) |
| sciatic plexus | Formed by the fourth and fifth lumbar (lumbosacral trunk) and first, second, and third sacral nerves; it lies on the inner surface of the posterior wall of the pelvis usually embedded in the piriformis muscle; its nerves supply the lower limbs, its major product being the sciatic nerve. Synonym: plexus sacralis, ischiadic plexus, sciatic plexus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic scoliosis | Scoliosis caused by asymmetric spasm of spinal muscles usually associated with sciatica, usually presenting as a list toward one side. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sciatic spine | A pointed process from the posterior border of the ischium on a level with the lower border of the acetabulum; gives attachment to the sacrospinous ligament; the pudendal nerve passes dorsal to the ischial spine, which is palpable per vagina or rectum, and thus is used as a target for the needle-tip in administering a pudendal nerve block. Synonym: spina ischiadica, ischiadic spine, sciatic spine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| small sciatic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the first three sacral nerves, supplies the skin of the posterior surface of the thigh and of the popliteal region (S1 and S2 component); it gives off a perineal branch (S3 component) that passes to the lateral aspect of the scrotum or labia majora. Synonym: nervus cutaneus femoris posterior, posterior cutaneous nerve of thigh, small sciatic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lesser sciatic notch | The notch in the posterior border of the ischium below the ischial spine. Synonym: incisura ischiadica minor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bursa of extensor carpi radialis brevis muscle | <anatomy> The bursa between the tendon of the extensor carpi radialis brevis and the base of the third metacarpal. Synonym: bursa musculi extensoris carpi radialis brevis. (05 Mar 2000) |
