| pars cervicalis ductus thoracici | The portion of the thoracic duct above the first rib. Synonym: pars cervicalis ductus thoracici. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars cervicalis medullae spinalis | The part of the spinal cord that consists of the eight cervical segments and gives rise to the first eight pairs of spinal nerves. Synonym: pars cervicalis medullae spinalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars cervicalis oesophagi | The part of the oesophagus located in the neck. See: oesophagus. Synonym: pars cervicalis oesophagi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regio cervicalis anterior | The area of the neck bounded by the mandible, the anterior border of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, and the anterior midline of the neck; it is subdivided into carotid, muscular, submandibular, and submental triangles. Synonym: anterior region of neck, regio cervicalis anterior, trigonum cervicale anterius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regio cervicalis lateralis | The region of the neck bounded by the sternocleidomastoid muscle, the trapezius muscle, and the upper border of the clavicle, including the omoclavicular triangle. Synonym: lateral region of neck, regio cervicalis lateralis, trigonum cervicale posterius. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cervicalis ascendens | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, angles of upper six ribs; insertion, transverse processes of middle cervical vertebrae; action, extends, abducts, and rotates cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, dorsal branches of upper thoracic nerves. Synonym: musculus iliocostalis cervicis, cervical iliocostal muscle, cervicalis ascendens, musculus cervicalis ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus cervicalis | A network of nerve fibres originating in the upper four cervical spinal cord segments. The cervical plexus distributes cutaneous nerves to parts of the neck, shoulders, and back of the head, and motor fibres to muscles of the cervical spinal column, infrahyoid muscles, and the diaphragm. (12 Dec 1998) |
| musculus cervicalis ascendens | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, angles of upper six ribs; insertion, transverse processes of middle cervical vertebrae; action, extends, abducts, and rotates cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, dorsal branches of upper thoracic nerves. Synonym: musculus iliocostalis cervicis, cervical iliocostal muscle, cervicalis ascendens, musculus cervicalis ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| costa cervicalis | A rib which arises from the seventh cervical vertebrae (above the normal first rib). Occurs in only about 0.5% of people. May cause nerve and artery problems. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nervus cardiacus cervicalis inferior | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve passing from the stellate ganglion to the cardiac plexus. Synonym: nervus cardiacus cervicalis inferior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus cardiacus cervicalis medius | <anatomy, nerve> One of the cardiopulmonary splanchnic nerves conveying postsynaptic sympathetic fibres running downward, from the middle cervical ganglion along the subclavian artery (on the left) or the brachiocephalic (on the right side) to join the cardiac plexus. Synonym: nervus cardiacus cervicalis medius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus cardiacus cervicalis superior | <anatomy, nerve> The uppermost of the cardiopulmonary splanchnic nerves which arises from the lower part of the superior cervical ganglion and passes down to form, with branches of the vagus, the cardiac plexus. Synonym: nervus cardiacus cervicalis superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
