Cartilage · Upper limbArticular disc of acromioclavicular jointDiscus articulationis acromioclavicularisA small, often incomplete wedge of fibrocartilage inside the joint between the lateral end of the clavicle and the acromion.
Cartilage · Upper limbArticular disc of distal radio-ulnar jointDiscus articulationis radioulnaris distalisA triangular plate of fibrocartilage at the wrist, binding the lower ends of the radius and ulna and separating the ulna from the carpus.
Cartilage · Upper limbArticular disc of sternoclavicular jointDiscus articulationis sternoclavicularisA flat, almost circular plate of fibrocartilage dividing the joint between the medial end of the clavicle and the sternum.
Cartilage · HeadArticular disc of temporomandibular jointDiscus articulationis temporomandibularisA thin oval plate of fibrous tissue inside the jaw joint, lying between the mandibular condyle and the temporal bone.
Muscles · NeckAry-epiglottic part of oblique arytenoid musclePars aryepiglottica musculi arytenoidei obliquiThe ary-epiglottic part is the continuation of the oblique arytenoid muscle that runs in the ary-epiglottic fold to the epiglottis.
Cartilage · NeckArytenoid cartilageCartilago arytenoideaA small paired, pyramid-shaped cartilage perched on the back of the cricoid, to which the vocal fold and several laryngeal muscles attach.
Arteries · TrunkAscending aortaAorta ascendensThe first part of the aorta, rising from the left ventricle inside the pericardium to the second right costal cartilage.
Arteries · TrunkAscending branch of left colic arteryRamus ascendens arteriae colicae sinistraeThe upper branch of the left colic artery, climbing behind the peritoneum towards the splenic flexure of the colon.
Organs · AbdomenAscending colonColon ascendensThe first segment of the colon, climbing the right side of the abdomen from the caecum to the underside of the liver.
Muscles · NeckAscending part of trapezius musclePars ascendens musculi trapeziiThe ascending part is the lower, upward-slanting band of trapezius, running from the mid and lower thoracic spines to the scapular spine.
Arteries · HeadAscending pharyngeal arteryArteria pharyngea ascendensThe slenderest external carotid branch, climbing deep in the neck beside the pharynx to the skull base.
Skeleton · NeckAtlas (C1)The atlas is the first cervical vertebra, a bony ring without a body that carries the skull and lets the head nod and turn.
Series · HeadAuditory ossiclesOssicula auditusThe auditory ossicles are the three tiny linked bones of the middle ear that carry sound from the eardrum to the inner ear.
Nerves · HeadAuditory tubeTuba auditivaThe narrow bony and cartilaginous canal joining the middle ear to the nasopharynx, keeping air pressure equal on both sides of the eardrum.
Arteries · TrunkAxillary arteryArteria axillarisThe artery of the armpit, continuing the subclavian from the outer border of the first rib to the lower border of teres major.
