| superior mesenteric vein | <anatomy, vein> Begins at the ileum in the right iliac fossa, ascends in the root of the mesentery, and unites behind the pancreas with the splenic vein to form the hepatic portal vein. Synonym: vena mesenterica superior. (05 Mar 2000) |

| superior ophthalmic vein | <anatomy, vein> Begins anteriorly from the nasofrontal vein, passes along the upper part of the medial wall of the orbit, passes through the superior orbital fissure, to empty into the cavernous sinus. Synonym: vena ophthalmica superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior part of lingular branch of left pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein that drains the superior lingular bronchopulmonary segment of the left lung. Synonym: pars superior rami lingularis venae pulmonis sinistri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior rectal vein | <anatomy, vein> It drains the greater part of the rectal venous plexus, and ascends between the layers of the mesorectum to the brim of the pelvis, where it becomes the inferior mesenteric vein. As a tributary of the portal vein, it forms a portocaval anastomosis with the middle and inferior rectal veins (caval tributaries) via the rectal venous plexus. Synonym: vena rectalis superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thalamostriate vein | <anatomy, vein> A long vein passing forward in the groove between the thalamus and caudate nucleus, covered by the lamina affixa, receiving the transverse caudate veins along its lateral side, and joining at the caudal wall of Monro's foramen with the choroidal vein and vein of septum pellucidum to form the internal cerebral vein. Synonym: vena terminalis, vena thalamostriata superior, terminal vein, vein of corpus striatum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid vein | <anatomy, vein> Receives blood from the upper part of the thyroid gland and larynx, accompanies the artery of the same name, and empties into the internal jugular vein. Synonym: vena thyroidea superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior vein of vermis | A vein draining part of the superior part of the cerebellum; it runs on the superior surface of the vermis to terminate in the internal cerebral vein. Synonym: vena vermis superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intralobar part of the right superior pulmonary vein | <anatomy, vein> The vein draining the apical and posterior segments of the right lung; tributary to the posterior branch of the right superior pulmonary vein. Synonym: pars intralobaris venae pulmonalis dextrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| left superior pulmonary vein | The vein returning oxygenated blood from the left superior lobe of the lung to the left atrium. Synonym: vena pulmonalis superior sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |

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 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 intercostal veins | Tributaries to the musculophrenic or internal thoracic veins from the anterior portions of intercostal spaces. Synonym: venae intercostales anteriores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pectoral and abdominal anterior cutaneous branch of intercostal nerves | The ventral primary rami of spinal nerves T7-T11 (seventh to eleventh intercostal nerves), which supply the abdominal as well as the thoracic wall; innervate intercostal, subcostal, serratus posterior inferior, transversus abdominis, external and internal oblique, and rectus abdominis muscles, and provide sensory branches to the periphery of the diaphragm, and parietal pleura and peritoneum. Synonym: rami cutanei anteriores pectoralis et abdominalis nervorum intercostalium, ramus cutaneus anterior (pectoralis et abdominalis) nervorum thoracicorum, anterior cutaneous nerves of abdomen, pectoral and abdominal anterior cutaneous branch of intercostal nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
