| nervus pectoralis medialis | <anatomy, nerve> A nerve that arises from the medial cord of the brachial plexus to supply the pectoral muscles; usually pierces pectoralis minor, then continues to supply mainly the sternocostal portion of pectoralis major. Synonym: nervus pectoralis medialis, medial anterior thoracic nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nervus plantaris medialis | <anatomy, nerve> One of the two terminal branches of the tibial nerve; it courses along the medial aspect of the sole to supply the abductor hallucis and flexor digitorum brevis and, by way of common and proper digital branches, to innervate the skin of the medial part of the foot and medial three and one-half toes. Synonym: nervus plantaris medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nervus supraclavicularis medialis | <anatomy, nerve> One of several nerves arising from the cervical plexus which supply the skin over the upper medial part of the thorax. Synonym: nervus supraclavicularis medialis, anterior supraclavicular nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stria longitudinalis medialis | A thin longitudinal band of nerve fibres accompanied by gray matter, running along the surface of the corpus callosum on either side of the median line. Together with the lateral longitudinal stria it forms part of a thin layer of gray matter on the dorsal surface of the corpus callosum, the indusium griseum, a rudimentary component of the hippocampus. Synonym: stria longitudinalis medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nodus lacunaris medialis | A lymph node of the external iliac group located medial to the external iliac vein at the vascular lacuna. Synonym: nodus lacunaris medialis, medial lacunar node. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus bicipitalis medialis | at the cubital fossa, the groove separating the biceps brachii and brachialis muscles on the medial side. Synonym: sulcus bicipitalis medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus medialis cruris cerebri | A groove in the lateral wall of the interpeduncular fossa of the midbrain from which the rootlets of the oculomotor nerve emerge. Synonym: sulcus medialis cruris cerebri, sulcus nervi oculomotorii, sulcus of the oculomotor nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus corporis geniculati medialis | The nerve cell groups composing the medial geniculate body (corpus geniculatum mediale). Synonym: nucleus corporis geniculati medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus medialis centralis thalami | A small cell group in the interthalamic adhesion of the thalamus, occupying the midline region of the internal medullary lamina, between the left and the right paracentral nucleus. Synonym: nucleus medialis centralis thalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus medialis thalami | A large, composite cell group in the dorsomedial region of the thalamus having reciprocal connections with the entire extent of the frontal cortex anterior to the motor cortex (area 4) and premotor cortex (area 6). The afferent connections of the medial nucleus also include projections from the olfactory cortex and amygdala. Synonym: nucleus medialis thalami, dorsomedial nucleus, mediodorsal nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus olivaris accessorius medialis | A detached part of the olivary nucleus medial to the latter's main body, against the lateral side of the medial lemniscus and pyramidal tract. Synonym: nucleus olivaris accessorius medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus preopticus medialis | A group of nerve cells forming the medial zone of the preoptic region. Synonym: nucleus preopticus medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eminentia medialis | Longitudinal elevation of the rhomboid fossa, extending along either side of the midline throughout the length of the rhombencephalon; made up of named elevations such as the facial colliculus and the hypoglossal and vagal trigones. Synonym: eminentia medialis, eminentia teres, funiculus teres, round eminence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epicondylus medialis humeri | The epicondylus situated proximal and medial to the condyle. Synonym: epicondylus medialis humeri, epitrochlea. (05 Mar 2000) |
| epicondylus medialis ossis femoris | The epicondylus located proximal to the medial condyle. Synonym: epicondylus medialis ossis femoris, medial femoral tuberosity. (05 Mar 2000) |
