| musculus palmaris longus | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, medial epicondyle of humerus; insertion, flexor retinaculum of wrist and palmar fascia; action, makes palmar fascia tense and flexes the hand and forearm; is absent about 20% of the time; when tensed, its tendon stands out sharply at the wrist and overlies the median nerve; nerve supply, median.

| nervus ciliaris longus | <anatomy, nerve> One of two or three branches of the nasociliary nerve, which by-pass the ciliary ganglion, supplying post-synaptic sympathetic fibres for the dilator pupillae muscle and sensory fibres for the ciliary muscles, iris, and cornea. Synonym: nervus ciliaris longus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus thoracicus longus | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the fifth, sixth, and seventh cervical nerves (roots of brachial plexus), descends the neck behind the brachial plexus, and is distributed to the serratus anterior muscle; it is somewhat unusual in that it courses on the superficial aspect of the muscle is supplies; its paralysis results in "winged scapula". Synonym: nervus thoracicus longus, Bell's respiratory nerve, external respiratory nerve of Bell, posterior thoracic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
