| nervus cochlearis | <anatomy, nerve> The cochlear part of the acoustic (8th cranial) nerve. The cochlear nerve fibres originate from neurons of the spiral ganglion and project peripherally to cochlear hair cells and centrally to the cochlear nuclei of the brainstem. They mediate the sense of hearing. (12 Dec 1998) |
| nervus communicans fibularis | The peroneal (fibular) communicating branch of the common peroneal (fibular) nerve; it arises from the common peroneal nerve in the popliteal space and passes over the lateral head of the gastrocnemius to the middle third of the leg, where it unites with the medial sural cutaneous nerve to form the sural nerve. Synonym: ramus communicans fibularis nervi fibularis communis, ramus communicans peroneus nervi peronei communis, nervus communicans fibularis, nervus communicans peroneus, peroneal anastomotic ramus, peroneal communicating nerve.

| nervus cutaneus antebrachii posterior | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the radial nerve supplying the skin of the dorsal surface of the forearm. Synonym: nervus cutaneus antebrachii posterior, posterior cutaneous nerve of forearm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus cutaneus brachii lateralis inferior | <anatomy, nerve> A branch of the radial nerve supplying the skin of the lower lateral aspect of the arm; it frequently is a branch of the posterior antebrachial nerve. Synonym: nervus cutaneus brachii lateralis inferior, lower lateral cutaneous nerve of arm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus cutaneus brachii medialis | <anatomy, nerve> Arises from the medial cord of the brachial plexus, unites in the axilla with the lateral cutaneous branch of the second intercostal nerve, and supplies the skin of the medial side of the arm.
