| superficial inguinal lymph nodes | A group of 12 to 20 nodes that lie in the subcutaneous tissue below the inguinal ligament and along the terminal part of the great saphenous vein; they drain the skin and subcutaneous tissue of the lower abdominal wall, perineum, buttock, external genitalia, and lower limb; they are subdivided into three groups: inferior (vertical) group of superficial inguinal lymph nodes, located inferior to the saphenous opening receiving drainage of the lower limb; superolateral (lateral horizontal) superfical inguinal lymph nodes located lateral to the saphenous opening receiving drainage of lateral buttock and lower anterior abdominal wall; and superomedial (medial horizontal) superficial inguinal lymph nodes, located medial to the saphenous opening, receiving drainage of the perineum and external genitalia. Synonym: nodi lymphatici inguinales superficiales. (05 Mar 2000) |

| superficial inguinal ring | The slit-like opening in the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle of the abdominal wall through which the spermatic cord (round ligament in the female) and inguinal hernias emerge from the inguinal canal. See: aponeurosis of external abdominal oblique muscle. Synonym: annulus inguinalis superficialis, external inguinal ring, subcutaneous ring. (05 Mar 2000) |

| superficial layer | In a stratified structure, the outermost or topmost of the strata; the stratum nearest the surface. See: superficial layer of deep cervical fascia, superficial layer of the levator {palpebrae superioris muscle}, superficial layer of temporalis fascia. Synonym: lamina superficialis, superficial lamina. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial layer of deep cervical fascia | The part of the cervical fascia investing the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius muscles and completely encircling the neck. Synonym: lamina superficialis fasciae cervicalis, investing fascia, superficial layer of deep cervical fascia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial layer of temporalis fascia | The superficial part of the temporal fascia attaching to the lateral surface of the zygomatic arch. Synonym: lamina superficialis fasciae temporalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial layer of the levator palpebrae superioris muscle | <anatomy> The superficial fibres of the levator muscle of the superior eyelid which are inserted into the skin of the superior eyelid. Synonym: lamina superficialis musculi levatoris palpebrae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial linear keratitis | Spontaneous, painful keratitis with epithelial erosion and folds in Bowman's membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial lingual muscle | An intrinsic muscle of the tongue, running from base to tip on the dorsum just beneath the mucous membrane; action, shortens the upper part of the tongue; nerve supply, motor by hypoglossal, sensory by lingual. Synonym: musculus longitudinalis superior, superficial lingual muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial lymphatic vessel | One of the lymphatic vessels that lie in the skin and subcutaneous tissues; they join the deep lymphatic vessels. Synonym: vas lymphaticum superficiale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial middle cerebral vein | <anatomy, vein> A large vein passing along the line of the sylvian fissure to join the cavernous sinus; it communicates with the superior sagittal sinus and transverse sinus via the superior and inferior anastomotic veins, respectively. Synonym: vena cerebri media superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar (arterial) arch | The arterial arch in the hand located superficial to the long flexor tendons approximately at the level of a line extrapolated across the palm from the distal side of the outstretched thumb. It is formed principally by the termination of the superficial ulnar artery and is usually completed by a communication with the superficial palmar branch of the radial artery. The arch gives rise to the common palmar digital arteries. Synonym: arcus palmaris superficialis, arcus volaris superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar artery | <anatomy, artery> The superficial palmar branch of the radial artery which supplies the thenar muscles then enters the palm to communicate with the superficial palmar arch from the ulnar artery. Synonym: ramus palmaris superficialis arteriae radialis, superficial palmar artery, superficial volar artery, superficialis volae. (05 Mar 2000) |
