| sulcus musculi subclavii | A groove on the inferior surface of the body of the clavicle to which is attached the subclavius muscle. Synonym: sulcus musculi subclavii, subclavian sulcus, sulcus subclavianus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus tendinis musculi fibularis longi | An alternate term for groove for tendon of peroneus longus muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus tendinis musculi flexoris hallucis longi | Groove for tendon of the flexor hallucis longus; a vertical sulcus on the posterior process of the talus continuous with a similar groove on the underside of the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus. Synonym: sulcus tendinis musculi flexoris hallucis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus tendinis musculi peronei longi | <anatomy> The groove below the peroneal trochlea of the calcaneus, the groove distal to the tuberosity of the cuboid bone. Synonym: sulcus tendinis musculi peronei longi, sulcus tendinis musculi fibularis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberculum musculi scaleni anterioris | A small spine on the inner edge of the first rib, giving attachment to the scalenus anterior muscle. Synonym: tuberculum musculi scaleni anterioris, Lisfranc's tubercle, scalene tubercle of Lisfranc, tubercle of anterior scalene muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberositas musculi serrati anterioris | <anatomy> A rough oval area, about the middle of the outer surface and lower border of the second rib, for the attachment of the serratus anterior muscle. Synonym: tuberositas musculi serrati anterioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lacertus musculi recti lateralis | <anatomy> The part of the tendon of origin of the lateral rectus muscle attaching to the greater wing of the sphenoid bone, lateral to the common tendinous ring; often incorrectly equated to the lateral check ligament of the eyeball. Synonym: lacertus musculi recti lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina anterior vaginae musculi recti abdominis | The portion of the rectus sheath that lies anterior to the muscle, consisting in its upper two-thirds of contributions from the aponeuroses of the external and internal oblique muscles, and in its lower third (below the arcuralt line) of contributions from the aponeuroses of all three muscles of the anterolateral abdominal wall. Synonym: lamina anterior vaginae musculi recti abdominis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina posterior vaginae musculi recti abdominis | The portion of the sheath of the rectus abdominis muscle that lies posterior to the muscle covering only its upper two-thirds; it is formed by contributions from the aponeuroses of the internal oblique and transversus abdominis muscles; its free inferior margin forms the arcuate line; it is deficient below this, the posterior aspect of the muscle being covered only by transversalis fascia and peritoneum. Synonym: lamina posterior vaginae musculi recti abdominis. (05 Mar 2000) |
