- Common iliac veinVena iliaca communisA short paired vein of the lower abdomen, formed anterior to the sacroiliac joint, that joins its partner to make the inferior vena cava.
- Common interosseous arteryArteria interossea communisA short trunk from the ulnar artery in the upper forearm that divides into the anterior and posterior interosseous arteries.
- Common palmar digital arteriesArteriae digitales palmares communesThree arteries running from the superficial palmar arch towards the finger webs, where each splits into two proper digital arteries.
- Common palmar digital branches of median nerveRami digitales palmares communes nervi medianiBranches of the median nerve in the palm that run towards the finger clefts and split into the digital nerves of the radial fingers.
- Common palmar digital branches of ulnar nerveRami digitales palmares communes nervi ulnarisThe palmar branch of the ulnar nerve's superficial division that heads for the web between ring and little fingers.
- Common plantar digital arteriesArteriae digitales plantares communesArteries in the forefoot sole that continue the plantar metatarsal arteries and divide at the toe webs into proper plantar digital arteries.
- Common plantar digital branches of lateral plantar nerveRami digitales plantares communes nervi plantaris lateralisThe digital branches from the superficial branch of the lateral plantar nerve, serving the little toe and the fourth web space.
- Common plantar digital branches of medial plantar nerveRami digitales plantares communes nervi plantaris medialisThree digital nerves of the medial plantar nerve that run to the first three toe clefts and split for the facing toe surfaces.
- Conoid ligamentLigamentum conoideumThe cone-shaped posteromedial part of the coracoclavicular ligament, rising from the coracoid process to the conoid tubercle of the clavicle.
- Coraco-acromial ligamentLigamentum coracoacromialeA strong triangular band joining two processes of the scapula, coracoid and acromion, to arch over the shoulder joint.
- Coracobrachialis muscleMusculus coracobrachialisCoracobrachialis is a slender muscle high on the inner side of the arm, running from the coracoid process to the humeral shaft.
- Coracohumeral ligamentLigamentum coracohumeraleA broad band over the top of the shoulder joint, running from the coracoid process to both tubercles of the humerus.
- CorneaThe clear, dome-shaped front of the eyeball, set into the sclera at the limbus and lying in front of the anterior chamber, iris and pupil.
- Corniculate cartilageCartilago corniculataA tiny cone of elastic cartilage on the tip of each arytenoid cartilage, lying in the back of the aryepiglottic fold.
- Coronary sinusSinus coronariusA wide venous channel in the posterior atrioventricular groove that gathers most of the heart's own venous blood and empties into the right atrium.
- Corpus callosumThe broad arched sheet of white matter in the midline that joins the two cerebral hemispheres.
- Corrugator superciliiMusculus corrugator superciliiThe corrugator supercilii is a small, narrow muscle at the inner end of each eyebrow that pulls the brow down and inwards in a frown.
- Costal cartilagesCartilagines costalesThe bars of hyaline cartilage that carry the ribs forward to the sternum or to each other, giving the front of the chest its spring.
- Costocervical trunkTruncus costocervicalisA short branch from the back of the subclavian artery that arches over the dome of the pleura to the first rib's neck.
- Costoclavicular ligamentLigamentum costoclaviculareA short, strong rhomboid band tying the underside of the clavicle's inner end to the first rib and its cartilage.
- Costotransverse ligamentLigamentum costotransversariumA short, strong band behind each costotransverse joint, binding the neck of a rib to the transverse process of its own vertebra.
- Cricoid cartilageCartilago cricoideaThe signet-ring-shaped cartilage at the base of the larynx, the only complete cartilage ring of the airway, at the level of C6.
- Cricopharyngeal ligamentLigamentum cricopharyngeumA small band at the back of the larynx that ties the lamina of the cricoid cartilage to the midline of the pharyngeal wall behind it.
- Cubital nodesNodi cubitalesOne or two deep lymph nodes lying beside the brachial artery in the cubital fossa, at the front of the elbow.
