Brain and spinal cord · HeadLingula of cerebellumLingula cerebelliThe small, tongue-shaped front lobule of the superior vermis, lying on the superior medullary velum above the fourth ventricle.
Organs · AbdomenLiverHeparThe largest internal organ and gland, filling the upper right abdomen under the diaphragm and handling much of the body's metabolism.
Muscles · Upper limbLong head of biceps brachiiCaput longum musculi bicipitis brachiiThe long head of biceps brachii starts above the shoulder socket and runs through the joint and down the arm to bend the elbow.
Muscles · Lower limbLong head of biceps femorisCaput longum musculi bicipitis femorisThe long head of biceps femoris is the lateral hamstring belly, running from the ischial tuberosity down the back of the thigh to the fibula.
Muscles · Upper limbLong head of triceps brachiiCaput longum musculi tricipitis brachiiThe long head of triceps brachii starts just below the shoulder socket and is the only part of triceps to cross the shoulder joint.
Joints and ligaments · FootLong plantar ligamentLigamentum plantare longumThe longest ligament of the tarsus, running along the sole from the underside of the calcaneus to the cuboid and lateral metatarsal bases.
Arteries · HeadLong posterior ciliary arteriesArteriae ciliares posteriores longaeTwo small branches of the ophthalmic artery that run forwards inside the eyeball wall to supply the iris and ciliary body.
Nerves · NeckLong thoracic nerveNervus thoracicus longusA long motor nerve from the C5 to C7 roots that runs down the side of the chest to supply serratus anterior.
Muscles · NeckLongissimus capitis muscleMusculus longissimus capitisLongissimus capitis is a slender band of the deep back muscles that climbs from the upper thoracic spine to the mastoid process.
Muscles · NeckLongissimus colli muscleMusculus longissimus colliLongissimus colli is the neck part of the longissimus column, joining the upper thoracic transverse processes to those of the cervical spine.
Muscles · BackLongissimus thoracis muscleMusculus longissimus thoracisLongissimus thoracis is the large middle column of erector spinae in the back, running from the sacrum to the thoracic vertebrae and ribs.
Muscles · NeckLongus capitis muscleMusculus longus capitisLongus capitis is a deep muscle on the front of the upper neck, rising from C3 to C6 to the skull base.
Muscles · NeckLongus colli muscleMusculus longus colliLongus colli is a long prevertebral muscle lying on the front of the vertebral column from the atlas down to the upper thoracic vertebrae.
Arteries · TrunkLumbar arteriesArteriae lumbalesSegmental arteries of the lower back, usually four pairs, leaving the back of the abdominal aorta opposite the upper lumbar vertebrae.
Arteries · TrunkLumbar branch of iliolumbar arteryRamus lumbalis arteriae iliolumbalisThe upper terminal branch of the iliolumbar artery, climbing behind psoas major to supply the lowest lumbar region.
Veins · TrunkLumbar veinsVenae lumbalesSegmental veins of the posterior abdominal wall that run with the lumbar arteries and empty into the inferior vena cava and ascending lumbar veins.
Series · BackLumbar vertebraeVertebrae lumbalesThe lumbar vertebrae are the five large, weight-bearing vertebrae of the lower back, lying below the thoracic spine and above the sacrum.
Muscles · Lower limbLumbrical muscles of footMusculi lumbricales pedisThe lumbricals of the foot are four slender muscles in the sole that arise from the long flexor tendons and reach the lesser toes.
Muscles · Upper limbLumbrical muscles of handMusculi lumbricales manusThe lumbricals are four slender muscles in the palm that arise from the deep flexor tendons and help straighten the fingers.
Brain and spinal cord · HeadLunate sulcusA crescent-shaped groove on the lateral occipital lobe, variably present in humans, that in apes marks the front border of the primary visual cortex.
Joints and ligaments · HandLunotriquetral interosseous ligamentLigamentum lunotriquetrum interosseumA C-shaped ligament joining the lunate and triquetrum in the proximal row of the carpus, sealing the gap between them.
Cartilage · HeadMajor alar cartilageCartilago alaris majorA thin, folded plate of hyaline cartilage in the tip of the nose, one per side, shaping the nostril and holding it open.
Brain and spinal cord · HeadMamillary bodyCorpus mammillareOne of a pair of small round swellings on the underside of the hypothalamus, a relay of the memory circuit between hippocampus and thalamus.
Skeleton · HeadMandibleMandibulaThe mandible is the movable lower jaw bone of the skull, carrying the lower teeth and hinging on the temporal bones at each side.
