- Superolateral superficial inguinal nodesNodi inguinales superficiales superolateralesSuperficial lymph nodes of the groin lying below the lateral half of the inguinal ligament, in the fat of the upper thigh.
- Superomedial superficial inguinal nodesNodi inguinales superficiales superomedialesSuperficial lymph nodes of the groin lying below the medial half of the inguinal ligament, close to the pubic tubercle.
- SupinatorThe supinator is a short, broad muscle wrapped around the upper radius in the deep layer of the back of the forearm.
- Supra-orbital arteryArteria supraorbitalisA branch of the ophthalmic artery that leaves the orbit through the supra-orbital notch to supply the forehead and scalp.
- Supraclavicular nodesNodi supraclavicularesLymph nodes in the hollow above the clavicle, at the root of the neck, close to where the great lymph ducts join the veins.
- Supramarginal gyrusGyrus supramarginalisThe front part of the inferior parietal lobule, a curved convolution arching over the back end of the lateral sulcus.
- Suprarenal glandGlandula suprarenalisA small endocrine gland capping the upper pole of each kidney in the retroperitoneum, with a steroid-making cortex and an adrenaline-making medulla.
- Suprascapular arteryArteria suprascapularisAn artery from the thyrocervical trunk that crosses the root of the neck to the back of the scapula, supplying supraspinatus and infraspinatus.
- Suprascapular nerveNervus suprascapularisA nerve from the superior trunk of the brachial plexus that passes through the suprascapular notch to supply supraspinatus and infraspinatus.
- Suprascapular veinVena suprascapularisA vein of the shoulder and lower neck that drains the back of the scapula and crosses above the clavicle to reach the external jugular vein.
- Supraspinatus muscleMusculus supraspinatusSupraspinatus is the rotator cuff muscle filling the hollow above the spine of the scapula, running out to the top of the humerus.
- Supraspinous ligamentLigamentum supraspinaleA strong cord laid along the tips of the vertebral spines, from C7 in the lower neck down to the sacrum.
- Supratrochlear arteryArteria supratrochlearisA small terminal branch of the ophthalmic artery that leaves the orbit at its upper inner corner and climbs onto the forehead.
- Supratrochlear nodesNodi supratrochlearesOne or two superficial lymph nodes on the inner side of the arm, just above the medial epicondyle beside the basilic vein.
- Supreme intercostal arteryArteria intercostalis supremaA descending branch of the costocervical trunk that crosses the necks of the upper ribs to supply the first two intercostal spaces.
- Sural communicating branch of common fibular nerveRamus communicans suralis nervi fibularis communisA cutaneous branch of the common fibular nerve that crosses the back of the calf to join the medial sural cutaneous nerve.
- Sural nerveNervus suralisA purely sensory nerve of the calf, formed from tibial and fibular branches, that supplies the skin of the lateral ankle and foot.
- Suspensory ligament of eyeballLigamentum suspensorium bulbiA sling-like thickening of the fascial sheath of the eyeball, slung beneath the globe between the medial and lateral orbital walls.
- Sympathetic nervesNervi sympathiciThe nerves of the sympathetic division of the autonomic system, running from the thoracolumbar cord to glands, vessels and organs throughout the body.
- Sympathetic trunkTruncus sympathicusA paired chain of nerve fibres and ganglia lying beside the vertebral bodies from the skull base to the coccyx.
- Taeniae coliThree narrow bands of longitudinal smooth muscle running along the outside of the caecum and colon and meeting at the base of the appendix.
- Talocalcaneal interosseous ligamentLigamentum talocalcaneum interosseumA thick, strong ligament in the tunnel between the talus and calcaneus, binding the two bones together beneath the ankle.
- Talonavicular ligamentLigamentum talonaviculareA broad, thin band on the top of the foot joining the talar neck to the top of the navicular.
- TalusOs taliThe ankle bone at the top of the foot, gripped between the tibia and fibula and carrying the body's weight down to the heel and forefoot.
