| cardiopulmonary splanchnic nerves | Visceral branches of the sympathetic trunks conveying postsynaptic sympathetic fibres to and visceral afferent fibres from viscera located above the diaphragm, mainly via the cardiac, pulmonary, and oesophageal plexuses. The cervical and upper thoracic splanchnic nerves are part of this group. (05 Mar 2000) |

| recurrent meningeal branch of spinal nerves | A branch from the initial (mixed) part of each spinal nerve passing in a recurrent fashion back through the intervertebral foramen to supply spinal meninges, the posterior longitudinal ligament, posterolateral periphery of the intervertebral disc, and periosteum of the vertebrae. Synonym: ramus meningeus nervorum spinalium, recurrent meningeal branch of spinal nerves, sinuvertebral nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cavernous nerves of clitoris | Nerves corresponding to the cavernous nerves of penis in the male, arising from the vesicular portion of the pelvic plexus. Synonym: nervi cavernosi clitoridis, cavernous plexus of clitoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cavernous nerves of penis | Two nerves, major and minor, derived from the prostatic portion of the pelvic plexus supplying sympathetic and parasympathetic fibres to the helicine arteries and arteriorvenous anastomoses of the corpus cavernosum stimulating erection. Synonym: nervi cavernosi penis, cavernous plexus of penis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pectoral and abdominal anterior cutaneous branch of intercostal nerves | The ventral primary rami of spinal nerves T7-T11 (seventh to eleventh intercostal nerves), which supply the abdominal as well as the thoracic wall; innervate intercostal, subcostal, serratus posterior inferior, transversus abdominis, external and internal oblique, and rectus abdominis muscles, and provide sensory branches to the periphery of the diaphragm, and parietal pleura and peritoneum. Synonym: rami cutanei anteriores pectoralis et abdominalis nervorum intercostalium, ramus cutaneus anterior (pectoralis et abdominalis) nervorum thoracicorum, anterior cutaneous nerves of abdomen, pectoral and abdominal anterior cutaneous branch of intercostal nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pelvic splanchnic nerves | Visceral branches from the ventral primary rami of the second, third, and fourth sacral spinal nerves that join the inferior hypogastric plexus, to form the pelvic plexuses to and from which they convey presynaptic parasympathetic and sensory fibres, respectively. Synonym: nervi pelvici splanchnici, nervi erigentes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| meningeal branch of spinal nerves | A branch from the initial (mixed) part of each spinal nerve passing in a recurrent fashion back through the intervertebral foramen to supply spinal meninges, the posterior longitudinal ligament, posterolateral periphery of the intervertebral disc, and periosteum of the vertebrae. Synonym: ramus meningeus nervorum spinalium, recurrent meningeal branch of spinal nerves, sinuvertebral nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| perineal nerves | The superficial terminal branches of the pudendal nerve, supplying most of the muscles of the perineum (deep branch) as well as the skin of that region (superficial branch). Synonym: nervi perineales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| peripheral nerves | The nerves outside of the brain and spinal cord, including the autonomic, cranial, and spinal nerves. Peripheral nerves contain non-neuronal cells and connective tissue as well as axons. The connective tissue layers include, from the outside to the inside, the epineurium, the perineurium, and the endoneurium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| middle cluneal nerves | Terminal branches of the dorsal primary rami of the sacral nerves, supplying the skin of the mid-gluteal region. Synonym: nervi clunium medii. (05 Mar 2000) |
