| pectorodorsalis muscle | <anatomy> An anomalous muscle or tendinus slip that passes across the axilla from the pectoralis major to insert with the latissimus dorsi onto the humerus. Though to be a vestige of the panniculus carnosus muscle of lower mammals. Synonym: axillary arch muscle, axillary arch, pectorodorsal muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |

| vocal muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, depression between the two laminae of thyroid cartilage; insertion, portions of vocal process of arytenoid; action, shortens and relaxes vocal cords; nerve supply, recurrent laryngeal; a number of the deeper and finer fibres of the thyroaryteroid muscle attached directly to the outer side of the true vocal cord. Synonym: musculus vocalis, musculus thyroarytenoideus internus, vocal muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central core disease of muscle | <neurology> One of the conditions that produces floppy baby syndrome. It causes hypotonia (floppiness) in the newborn baby, slowly progressive muscle weakness, and muscle cramps after exercise. Muscle biopsy shows a key diagnostic finding (absent mitochondria in the centre of many type I muscle fibres). The disease is inherited as a dominant trait. The CCD gene is on chromosome 19 (and involves ryanodine receptor-1). Inheritance: autosomal dominant. (12 Dec 1998) |
| voluntary muscle | <anatomy> One whose action is under the control of the will; all the striated muscle's, except the heart, are voluntary muscle's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ceratocricoid muscle | <anatomy> A fasciculus from the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle inserted into the inferior horn of the thyroid cartilage. Synonym: musculus ceratocricoideus, Merkel's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pennate muscle | <anatomy> See: bipennate muscle, unipennate muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical iliocostal muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, angles of upper six ribs; insertion, transverse processes of middle cervical vertebrae; action, extends, abducts, and rotates cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, dorsal branches of upper thoracic nerves. Synonym: musculus iliocostalis cervicis, cervical iliocostal muscle, cervicalis ascendens, musculus cervicalis ascendens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical interspinal muscle | Origin, tubercle of spinous process of cervical vertebra; insertion, tubercle of spinous process of next superior vertebra; action, extends the neck; nerve supply, dorsal rami of cervical nerves. Synonym: musculus interspinalis cervicis, cervical interspinal muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical longissimus muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, transverse processes of upper thoracic vertebrae; insertion, transverse processes of middle and upper cervical vertebrae; action, extends cervical vertebrae; nerve supply, dorsal primary rami of lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal nerves. Synonym: musculus longissimus cervicis, cervical longissimus muscle, musculus transversalis cervicis, musculus transversalis colli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cheek muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, posterior portion of alveolar portion of maxilla and mandible and pterygomandibular raphe; insertion, orbicularis oris at angle of mouth; action, flattens cheek, retracts angle of mouth; nerve supply, facial. Plays an important role in mastication, working with tongue to keep food between teeth; when it is paralysed, food accumulates in the oral vestibule. A muscle of the cheek; so called from its use in blowing wind instruments. Origin: L, a trumpeter, fr. Bucinare to sound the trumpet. Synonym: musculus buccinator, cheek muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Merkel's muscle | <anatomy> A fasciculus from the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle inserted into the inferior horn of the thyroid cartilage. Synonym: musculus ceratocricoideus, Merkel's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| chin muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, incisor fossa of mandible; insertion, skin of chin; action, raises and wrinkles skin of chin, thus elevating the lower lip; nerve supply, facial. Synonym: musculus mentalis, chin muscle, musculus levator labii inferioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| great adductor muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, ischial tuberosity and ischiopubic ramus; insertion, linea aspera and adductor tubercle of femur; action, adducts and extends thigh; nerve supply, obturator and sciatic. Synonym: musculus adductor magnus, great adductor muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater pectoral muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, clavicular part (pars clavicularis), medial half of clavicle; sternocostal part (pars sternocostalis), anterior surface of manubrium and body of sternum and cartilages of first to sixth ribs; abdominal part (pars abdominalis), aponeurosis of external oblique; insertion, crest of greater tubercle of humerus; action, adducts and medially rotates arm; nerve supply, anterior thoracic. Synonym: musculus pectoralis major, greater pectoral muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
