Dorsal nerve of the penis. Pudendal nerve, its course through the lesser sciatic foramen, and branches, including dorsal nerve of the penis at bottom left. Transverse section of the penis. (Dorsal nerve visible at top.) The dorsal nerve of the penis is the deepest of three divisions of the pudendal nerve; it accompanies the internal pudendal ...
The dorsal root of spinal nerve (or posterior root of spinal nerve or sensory root) [1] is one of two "roots" which emerge from the spinal cord. It emerges directly from the spinal cord, and travels to the dorsal root ganglion. Nerve fibres with the ventral root then combine to form a spinal nerve. The dorsal root transmits sensory information ...
The dorsal ramus of spinal nerve, posterior ramus of spinal nerve, or posterior primary division is the posterior division of a spinal nerve.The dorsal rami provide motor innervation to the deep (a.k.a. intrinsic or true) muscles of the back, and sensory innervation to the skin of the posterior portion of the head, neck and back.
The dorsal scapular nerve is a branch of the brachial plexus, usually derived from the ventral ramus of cervical nerve C5. It provides motor innervation to the rhomboid major muscle, rhomboid minor muscle, and levator scapulae muscle. Dorsal scapular nerve syndrome can cause a winged scapula, with pain and limited motion.
The dorsal nerve of the clitoris is a nerve in females that branches off the pudendal nerve [1] to innervate the clitoris. The nerve is important for female sexual pleasure, [2] and it may play a role in clitoral erections. [3] It travels from below the inferior pubic ramus [4] to the suspensory ligament of the clitoris.
Dorsal nerve may refer to: Dorsal cutaneous nerve. Dorsal digital nerves. Dorsal digital nerves of foot. Dorsal scapular nerve. Dorsal nerve cord. Dorsal nerve of clitoris. Dorsal nerve of the penis. Intermediate dorsal cutaneous nerve.
The frenulum is a highly vascularized strip of mucosal tissue on the ventral side of the glans and the neck of the penis. It forms the interface between the outer and inner foreskin layers. [2] During gestation, it forms as the lateral edges of the preputial lamina approach in the ventral midline. The two sides of the lamina do not fuse in the ...
Spinal nerve. A spinal nerve is a mixed nerve, which carries motor, sensory, and autonomic signals between the spinal cord and the body. In the human body there are 31 pairs of spinal nerves, one on each side of the vertebral column. [1][2] These are grouped into the corresponding cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal regions of the ...
