Joints and ligaments · Upper limbInferior glenohumeral ligamentLigamentum glenohumerale inferiusThe largest and strongest of the three glenohumeral ligaments, a hammock under the shoulder joint from glenoid to humeral neck.
Arteries · TrunkInferior gluteal arteryArteria glutea inferiorA paired branch of the internal iliac artery that leaves the pelvis below piriformis to supply the buttock and the posterior thigh.
Lymphatics · TrunkInferior gluteal nodesNodi glutei inferioresA small group of deep pelvic lymph nodes lying beside the inferior gluteal artery as it leaves the pelvis below piriformis.
Veins · TrunkInferior gluteal veinsVenae gluteae inferioresPaired companion veins of the inferior gluteal artery that drain the lower buttock and back of the upper thigh into the internal iliac vein.
Muscles · HeadInferior head of lateral pterygoid muscleCaput inferius musculi pterygoidei lateralisThe inferior head of the lateral pterygoid is the larger part of this jaw-opening muscle, from pterygoid plate to mandibular neck.
Arteries · HeadInferior labial arteryArteria labialis inferiorAn offshoot of the facial artery running along the lower lip between its muscle and lining, supplying the lip.
Veins · HeadInferior labial veinsVenae labiales inferioresSmall veins of the lower lip and chin that carry blood into the facial vein near the corner of the mouth.
Nerves · Upper limbInferior lateral brachial cutaneous nerveNervus cutaneus lateralis inferior brachiiA cutaneous branch of the radial nerve that supplies the skin on the lower lateral side of the arm, above the elbow.
Arteries · Lower limbInferior lateral genicular arteryArteria inferior lateralis genusA popliteal branch that runs laterally above the fibular head, deep to the fibular collateral ligament, to the front of the knee.
Organs · TrunkInferior leaflet of right atrioventricular valveCuspis inferior valvae atrioventricularis dextraeOne of the three flaps of the tricuspid valve, hanging from the lower part of the valve ring between right atrium and ventricle.
Arteries · TrunkInferior lingular artery of left lungArteria lingularis inferior pulmonis sinistriThe pulmonary artery branch to the inferior lingular segment, the lowest part of the left upper lobe beside the heart.
Arteries · TrunkInferior lobar artery of right lungArteria lobaris inferior pulmonis dextriThe final part of the right pulmonary artery, branching into the segmental arteries of the right lower lobe.
Organs · ThoraxInferior lobe of left lungLobus inferior pulmonis sinistriThe lower of the two lobes of the left lung, behind and below the oblique fissure, resting on the left dome of the diaphragm.
Organs · ThoraxInferior lobe of right lungLobus inferior pulmonis dextriThe largest lobe of the right lung, lying behind and below the oblique fissure and resting on the right dome of the diaphragm.
Arteries · Lower limbInferior medial genicular arteryArteria inferior medialis genusA branch of the popliteal artery that curves round below the medial tibial condyle to supply the inner side of the knee.
Arteries · TrunkInferior mesenteric arteryArteria mesenterica inferiorThe unpaired artery of the hindgut, arising from the front of the abdominal aorta at the third lumbar level to feed the left colon and rectum.
Veins · TrunkInferior mesenteric veinVena mesenterica inferiorA vein of the posterior abdominal wall that drains the left colon, sigmoid colon and rectum and usually ends in the splenic vein.
Skeleton · HeadInferior nasal concha boneConcha nasalis inferiorA curled scroll of thin bone on the lower side wall of each nasal cavity, the largest of the three conchae and a facial bone in its own right.
Muscles · HeadInferior oblique muscleMusculus obliquus inferior bulbi oculiThe inferior oblique is a thin eye muscle at the front of the orbital floor that rotates the eyeball outwards and lifts its gaze.
Veins · HeadInferior ophthalmic veinVena ophthalmica inferiorA vein of the lower orbit that drains muscles and tissues below the eye towards the cavernous sinus and the pterygoid plexus.
Lymphatics · TrunkInferior pancreatic nodesNodi pancreatici inferioresLymph nodes strung along the lower edge of the pancreas, collecting lymph from the head and body of the gland.
Arteries · TrunkInferior pancreaticoduodenal arteryArteria pancreaticoduodenalisA small early offshoot of the superior mesenteric artery that curves round the pancreatic head to supply it and the lower duodenum.
Organs · Whole bodyInferior parathyroid glandGlandula parathyreoidea inferiorThe lower of the two small parathyroid glands on each side, usually lying behind the lower pole of the thyroid lobe.
Veins · HeadInferior petrosal sinusSinus petrosus inferiorA paired dural venous sinus on the skull base, carrying blood from the cavernous sinus to the internal jugular vein.
