Synonym: decussatio pedunculorum cerebellarium superiorum, decussatio brachii conjunctivi, decussation of brachia conjunctiva, Wernekinck's decussation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| triceps brachii | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, long or scapular head: lateral border of scapula below glenoid fossa, lateral head: lateral and posterior surface of humerus below greater tubercle, medial head: posterior surface of humerus below radial groove; insertion, olecranon of ulna; action, extends elbow; nerve supply, radial. Synonym: musculus triceps brachii, triceps muscle of arm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies anterior brachii | Area between deltoid region superiorly and anterior region of elbow inferiorly. Synonym: facies brachialis anterior, regio brachialis anterior, anterior surface of arm, facies anterior brachii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies lateralis brachii | The lateral surface of the arm. Synonym: facies lateralis brachii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fascia brachii | The deep fascia of the arm; it is continuous proximally with the pectoral fascia and the fascia covering the deltoid; distally it is continuous with the antebrachial fascia. Synonym: fascia brachii, deep fascia of arm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| caput laterale | Head of origin farthest from the midline. Nomina Anatomica lists lateral heads (caput laterale...) of the following: 1) triceps brachii muscle (... Musculi tricipitis brachii ); 2) gastrocnemius muscle (... Musculi gastrocnemii ). Synonym: caput laterale. (05 Mar 2000) |
