Either of the pair of largest nerves in the body that arise one on each side from the sacral plexus and that pass out of the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen and down the back of the thigh to its lower third where division into the tibial and common peroneal nerves occur.

large nerve supplying the leg and foot

largest nerve in the pig's body; runs from the pelvis into the buttocks and thigh and eventually terminates in the toes

arises from the sacral plexus and passes about halfway down the thigh where it divides into the common peroneal and tibial nerves

The largest nerve in the body, running from the pelvis through our buttocks and down each leg.

The major nerve supplying motor and sensory functions to the legs. This is the largest peripheral nerve in the body. This nerve later divides to form the tibial and peroneal nerve. It arises from the L4, L5, and S1-S3 spinal nerves. It emerges from the lumbar spine and sacrum into the gluteal region through the sciatic notch. It is the largest diameter nerve in the body.

The nerve that serves the legs and originates from several levels of the lower back.

A large nerve in the lumbar-sacral spine region that is composed of multiple nerve roots that supply the lower extremities

Largest nerve in the body, a general sensory and motor nerve. It originates in the sacral plexus at L4-S3 and leaves the pelvis through the greater sciatic foramen, and branches by dividing into the tibial and common peroneal nerves, usually in the lower third of the thigh. It distributes through its individual branches

The largest nerve in the body. It extends from the sacral plexus, emerges from the pelvis and travels deep within the buttocks. It then descends down the back of the thigh to the back of the knee at which point it divides into the common peroneal and tibial nerves. The sciatic nerve supplies sensation to the back of the thigh, outer side of the leg, and essentially the whole foot.

the nerve running along the buttocks, posterior thigh and leg, originating primarily from the L5 and S1 nerve roots

Major nerve that carries impulses for muscular action and sensations between the low back and thigh and lower leg; it is the longest nerve in the body.

an extremely Irritating runner. "He's got a lot of sciatic nerve!"

One of a pair of nerves that form at the base of the spine and continue down through the legs.

A nerve innervating the posteromedial portions of the thigh and leg.

The largest nerve in the body arising from the sacral plexus on either side, passing from the pelvis through the sciatic foramen, down the back of the thigh where it divides into the lower leg, ankle and foot.

The main nerve traveling down the leg. Pain associated with the sciatic nerve usually originates higher along the spinal cord when nerve roots become compressed or damaged from narrowing of the vertebral column or from a slipped disk. Symptoms can include tingling, numbness, or pain, which radiates to the buttocks legs and feet.

A long nerve that originates in the hip and runs down the leg.

The largest nerve in the body provides sensory and motor function to the lower extremeties.

The sciatic nerve is a large nerve that runs down the lower limb. It is the longest single nerve in the body.
