| sensory nerve | <anatomy, nerve> An afferent nerve conveying impulses that are processed by the central nervous system so as to become part of the organism's perception of self and its environment. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| sensory root of trigeminal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The large sensory root of the trigeminal (or fifth cranial) nerve, extending from the semilunar ganglion into the pons through the middle cerebellar peduncle or brachium pontis, immediately lateral to the small motor root. Synonym: radix sensoria nervi trigemini, portio major nervi trigemini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| seventh cranial nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The facial nerve enervates the muscles of the face (facial expression). Lesion of the facial nerve cause a drooping to one side of the face, inability to wrinkle the forehead, inability to whistle, inability to close the eye and deviation of the mouth to the unaffected side. Synonym: cranial nerve VII. (27 Sep 1997) |
| short ciliary nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of a number of branches of the ciliary ganglion, supplying the ciliary muscles, iris, and tunics of the eyeball. Synonym: nervus ciliaris brevis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| short saphenous nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the tibial nerve which supplies sensory innervation to parts of the lower leg and foot. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sinus nerve of Hering | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve that innervates the baroreceptors in the wall of the carotid sinus and the chemoreceptors in the carotid body. Synonym: ramus sinus carotici, carotid sinus branch, Hering's sinus nerve, intercarotid nerve, nerve to carotid sinus, sinus nerve of Hering. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hypogastric nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the two nerve trunks (right and left) which lead from the superior hypogastric plexus into the pelvis to join the inferior hypogastric plexuses. Synonym: nervus hypogastricus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hypoglossal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The hypoglossal nerve enervates the muscles of the tongue. Lesions of the twelfth cranial nerve result in deviation of the tongue toward the paralysed side and thick speech. Synonym: cranial nerve XII. (27 Sep 1997) |
| sixth cranial nerve | <anatomy> The abducent nerve enervates a muscle which moves the eyeball. Lesions of the sixth cranial nerve result in deviation of the eyeball outward and double vision. Synonym: cranial nerve VI. (27 Sep 1997) |
| small deep petrosal nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of two sympathetic branches from the internal carotid plexus to the tympanic plexus. Synonym: nervus caroticotympanicus, small deep petrosal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| smallest splanchnic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the abdominopelvic splanchnic nerves arising in the thorax and penetrating the diaphragm to supply presynaptic sympathetic fibres for the renal plexus; often combined with the lesser splanchnic nerve, but occasionally existing as an independent nerve. Synonym: nervus splanchnicus imus, smallest splanchnic nerve. (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) |
| somatic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the nerve's of parietal sensation or voluntary motion, as distinguished from the visceral sensory, involuntary motor and secretory nerve's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| space nerve | <anatomy, nerve> One of the branches of the vestibulocochlear nerve distributed to the saemicircular canals. (05 Mar 2000) |
| spinal accessory nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The eleventh cranial nerve enervates the sternocleidomastoid muscles and the trapezius muscles. Lesions of the eleventh result in drooping of the shoulder and inability to rotate the head away from the affected side. (27 Sep 1997) |
