- Facial nerve (VII)Nervus facialis (VII)The seventh cranial nerve, which runs through the temporal bone to move the muscles of the face and carries taste, tear and saliva fibres.
- Facial veinVena facialisThe main vein of the face, running from beside the nose down across the cheek and jaw into the neck.
- Falx cerebriA sickle-shaped sheet of dura mater that hangs down in the longitudinal fissure and separates the two cerebral hemispheres.
- Femoral arteryArteria femoralisThe main artery of the thigh, continuing the external iliac artery from the inguinal ligament down to the adductor hiatus above the knee.
- Femoral branch of genitofemoral nerveRamus femoralis nervi genitofemoralisThe thigh branch of the genitofemoral nerve, passing beneath the inguinal ligament to supply skin over the upper femoral triangle.
- Femoral nerveNervus femoralisThe biggest lumbar plexus branch, passing under the inguinal ligament to supply the knee extensors and skin of the front of the thigh.
- Femoral veinVena femoralisThe main deep vein of the thigh, running from the adductor hiatus up to the inguinal ligament beside the femoral artery.
- FemurOs femorisThe femur is the long bone of the thigh, running from the hip joint above to the knee joint below.
- FibulaThe fibula is the slender outer bone of the leg, beside the tibia, reaching from below the knee to the outer ankle.
- Fibular arteryArteria fibularisThe artery of the deep back of the leg that runs down beside the fibula from just below the knee to the heel.
- Fibular collateral ligamentLigamentum collaterale fibulareA rounded cord on the outer side of the knee, running from the lateral femoral epicondyle down to the fibular head.
- Fibular veinsVenae fibularesPaired deep veins of the leg that accompany the fibular artery close to the fibula and empty into the posterior tibial veins.
- Fibularis brevis muscleMusculus fibularis brevisFibularis brevis is the shorter lateral leg muscle, lying under fibularis longus and ending on the outer edge of the fifth metatarsal.
- Fibularis longus muscleMusculus fibularis longusFibularis longus is the superficial muscle on the outer side of the leg whose tendon crosses under the sole to the first metatarsal.
- Fibularis tertius muscleMusculus fibularis tertiusFibularis tertius is a small muscle in the front of the lower leg, often described as a fifth slip of extensor digitorum longus.
- First posterior intercostal arteryArteria intercostalis posterior primaThe artery of the first intercostal space, given off by the supreme intercostal artery rather than by the aorta.
- First ribCosta primaThe first rib is the shortest, broadest and most curved rib, forming the rim of the upper opening of the thorax.
- Flexor carpi radialisFlexor radialis carpiFlexor carpi radialis is a superficial muscle of the front of the forearm that bends the wrist and tilts the hand towards the thumb.
- Flexor digiti minimi of footFlexor digiti minimi pedis pedisFlexor digiti minimi brevis of the foot is a small muscle under the fifth metatarsal that bends the little toe at its base.
- Flexor digiti minimi of handFlexor digiti minimi manusFlexor digiti minimi brevis, a small hypothenar muscle, lies in the palm and bends the little finger at its knuckle.
- Flexor digitorum brevisFlexor brevis digitorumFlexor digitorum brevis is the central muscle of the first layer of the sole, sending split tendons to the four lesser toes.
- Flexor digitorum longusMusculus flexor digitorum longusFlexor digitorum longus is a deep calf muscle lying against the tibia whose tendons curl the four lesser toes.
- Flexor digitorum profundusFlexor profundus digitorumFlexor digitorum profundus is the deep finger flexor of the forearm, the only muscle able to bend the fingertips at their last joint.
- Flexor hallucis longusFlexor longus hallucisFlexor hallucis longus is a strong deep calf muscle on the fibular side whose tendon bends the big toe and powers push-off.
