- Pubo-analis muscleMusculus puboanalisThe pubo-analis is a band of levator ani fibres that runs from the pubis back to the anal canal, blending with its sphincters.
- Pubococcygeus muscleMusculus pubococcygeusPubococcygeus is the main front part of levator ani, running from the back of the pubis to the coccyx in the pelvic floor.
- Pubofemoral ligamentLigamentum pubofemoraleA band on the lower front of the hip capsule, running from the pubis to the capsule and the iliofemoral ligament.
- Pulmonary trunkTruncus pulmonalisThe short, wide artery leaving the right ventricle that carries deoxygenated blood towards the lungs before dividing into the two pulmonary arteries.
- PutamenThe large rounded outer nucleus of the basal ganglia, lying deep in each cerebral hemisphere between the external and internal capsules.
- Pyramid of medulla oblongataPyramis medullae oblongataeA paired ridge on the front of the medulla oblongata, carrying the descending corticospinal and corticobulbar fibres beside the midline.
- Pyramidalis muscleMusculus pyramidalisPyramidalis is a small triangular muscle low on the front of the abdomen, lying in front of rectus abdominis inside its sheath.
- Pyramis of vermisPyramis vermisA part of the inferior vermis of the cerebellum, between the tuber above and the uvula below, flanked by the biventral lobules.
- Quadrangular membraneMembrana quadrangularisA thin sheet of fibroelastic tissue in each side wall of the upper larynx, stretched between the epiglottis and the arytenoid cartilage.
- Quadrate ligamentLigamentum quadratumA small, thin fibrous sheet below the annular ligament, joining the lower edge of the ulna's radial notch to the radial neck.
- Quadratus femoris muscleMusculus quadratus femorisA flat, oblong muscle at the back of the hip, running straight across from the ischial tuberosity to the intertrochanteric crest.
- Quadratus lumborum muscleMusculus quadratus lumborumQuadratus lumborum is a flat, four-sided muscle of the posterior abdominal wall, joining the iliac crest to the twelfth rib and lumbar vertebrae.
- Quadratus plantae muscleMusculus quadratus plantaeA flat, two-headed muscle in the sole that runs from the heel bone to the tendon of flexor digitorum longus.
- Radial arteryArteria radialisThe artery of the thumb side of the forearm, running from the elbow to the hand, where its pulse is felt at the wrist.
- Radial collateral arteryArteria collateralis radialisA branch of the deep artery of the arm that descends on the lateral side of the elbow to join the radial recurrent artery.
- Radial collateral ligamentLigamentum collaterale radiale cubitiThe outer ligament of the elbow, fanning from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus down to the annular ligament of the radius.
- Radial collateral ligament of wrist jointLigamentum collaterale radiale carpiA short band on the thumb side of the wrist joint, passing from the radial styloid process down to the scaphoid.
- Radial head of flexor digitorum superficialisCaput radiale flexoris superficialis digitorumThe radial head is the thin lower origin of flexor digitorum superficialis, arising from the front of the radius below the elbow.
- Radial nerveNervus radialisThe largest branch of the brachial plexus, running round the back of the humerus to supply the extensors of the arm and forearm.
- Radial veinsVenae radialesPaired deep veins running with the radial artery along the lateral side of the forearm and join the ulnar veins at the elbow.
- Radiate carpal ligamentLigamentum radiatum carpiA star of short fibrous bands on the palmar face of the carpus, fanning out from the capitate to the surrounding carpal bones.
- Radiate ligament of head of ribLigamentum radiatum capitis costaeA fan-shaped band over the front of each rib-head joint, spreading from the rib head to two vertebral bodies and the disc.
- Radiocapitate ligamentLigamentum radiocapitatumA strong palmar ligament of the wrist running obliquely from the radial styloid, across the waist of the scaphoid, to the capitate.
- Radioscaphocapitate ligamentLigamentum radioscaphocapitatumA strong palmar wrist ligament running from the radial styloid across the waist of the scaphoid to the capitate.
