This is a list of human anatomy mnemonics, categorized and alphabetized. For mnemonics in other medical specialties, see this list of medical mnemonics. Mnemonics serve as a systematic method for remembrance of functionally or systemically related items within regions of larger fields of study, such as those found in the study of specific areas of human anatomy, such as the bones in the hand, the inner ear, or the foot, or the elements comprising the human biliary system or arterial system.

Tarsal tunnel a mnemonic to remember the contents of the Tarsal tunnel from anterior to posterior is "Tom, Dick and Harry". or alternatively "Tom, Dick (and very nervous) Harry" if the artery, vein, and nerve are included.
Femoral triangle The femoral triangle is shaped like the sail of a sailing ship and hence its boundaries can be remembered using the mnemonic, "SAIL":
Sartorius Adductor longus Inguinal Ligament. The order of structures in the femoral triangle is important in the embalming of bodies, as the femoral artery is often exposed and used to pump embalming fluids into the body. The order of this neurovascular bundle can be remembered using the mnemonic, "NAVY":
Nerve Artery Vein Y -fronts (the British term of a style of men's underwear with a Y-shaped front that acts as a fly). The "Y" is midline (corresponding with the penis) and the mnemonic always reads from lateral to medial (in other words, the Femoral Nerve is always lateral). An alternate to this mnemonic is "NAVEL" for Nerve, Artery, Vein, Empty Space and Lymph, to include the deep inguinal lymph nodes located medial to the Femoral vein.
Popliteal fossa A useful mnemonic to remember popliteal fossa anatomy (medial-to-lateral arrangement) is: Serve And Volley Next Ball.

V - vena cava - T8 O - oesophagus - T10 A - aortic hiatus - T12
Vena cava = 8 letters = T8p. 1 Oesophagus = 10 letters = T10 Aortic hiatus = 12 letters = T12
Openings of the diaphragm and structures passing through "I Read, Very Old, And Torn Articles." - (IVC, Right phrenic nerve), (Vagus nerve, Oesophagus), (Aorta, Thoracic duct, Azygos vein).
Openings of the diaphragm and structures passing through
Caval opening (vena caval foramen) (2: IR): Inferior vena cava, (branches of the) Right phrenic nerve Esophageal hiatus (2: VO): (anterior and posterior) Vagal trunks, Oesophagus Aortic hiatus (3: ATA): (descending) Aorta, Thoracic duct, Azygos vein
I ate 10 eggs at 12 I = IVC ate = T8 10 = T10 Eggs = Esophagus At = Aorta 12 = T12
Sternal angle The sternal angle marks the approximate level of the 2nd pair of costal cartilages, which attach to the second ribs, and the level of the intervertebral disc between T4 and T5. In clinical applications, the sternal angle can be palpated at the T4 vertebral level. The sternal angle is used in the definition of the thoracic plane. This marks the level of a number of other anatomical structures.
For structures lying at the level of the sternal angle, the following mnemonic can be used:
RAT PLLANT Rib 2 Aortic arch Tracheal bifurcation Pulmonary trunk Ligamentum arteriosum Left recurrent laryngeal Azygos Vein Nerves (Cardiac and Pulmonary plexuses) Thoracic duct
PLOT of EARTH PLLANTS is a more detailed mnemonic including:
Phrenic and Vagus Nerve Lymph Nodes Oblique fissure of lungs (top of it) Thymus Esophagus (trending right to left) Aortic Arch (bottom of the arch) Rib 2, Manubrium-sternal angle, T4(more specifically T4-5 disc) Tracheal Bifurcation (Carina: Latin –like keel of boat) Heart Pulmonary trunk bifurcation L2 : Left Recurrent Laryngeal (Looping under Aorta); Ligamentum Arteriosum: Connects Aortic Arch to Pulmonary. Bifurcation Azygous vein arches over the root of the Rt. Lung and opens in SVC. Nerve plexi: Cardiac and Pulmonary Plexus Thoracic duct (on its way to drain into the Left Subclavian) SVC going down

OOOh the 2 Traceys Are From Virginia Good cause Virginians Are Hilarious On, On, On, They Traveled And Found Voldemort Guarding Very Ancient Horcruxes
There are many mnemonics for the names of the cranial nerves, e.g.
"OOOTTAFAGVSH" is "OLd OPen OCeans TROuble TRIbesmen ABout Fish VEnom Giving VArious ACute/SPlitting Headaches" (a mnemonic that gives enough letters to distinguish between nerves that start with the same letter), or "On old Olympus's towering tops, a Finn and German viewed some hops," and for the initial letters "OOOTTAFVGVAH" is "Oh, oh, oh, to touch and feel very good velvet ... ah, heaven." The differences between these depend on "vestibulocochlear nerve" versus "acoustic nerve" and "accessory nerve" versus "spinal accessory nerve".

3 branches of the trigeminal nerve (CN V) Standing room only can be used to remember that:
V1 (ophthalmic nerve) passes through the superior orbital fissure V2 (maxillary nerve) through the foramen rotundum V3 (mandibular nerve) through the foramen ovale.
5 branches of the facial nerve (CN VII) For the five branches of the facial nerve there are: "Two Zebras Bit My Cookie" or "To Zanzibar By MotorCar" or "To Zoo By My Car"
Temporal branch Zygomatic branch Buccal branch Marginal mandibular branch Cervical branch
Lateral geniculate nucleus (thalamus) In neuroanatomy, the lateral geniculate nucleus is a structure in the thalamus and a key component of the mammalian visual pathway.
A simple mnemonic for remembering which layers of lateral geniculate body are synapsed with the ganglion cells of the ipsilateral or contralateral optic nerve is "See I? I see, I see," with "see" representing the C in "contralateral," and "I" representing the I in "ipsilateral." (CIICIC) Another is "Emily and Pete meet eye to eye" as in "M and P meet I to I," or again, "Magno and Parvo meet Ipsi to Ipsi." (MMPPPP)
Another way of remembering which layers of lateral geniculate body are synapsed with the ganglion cells of the ipsilateral or contralateral optic nerve is 2+3=5 (layers II, III and V), which is correct, so it is from the same (ipsilateral) side as the ganglion cells from the side of question, while at the same time 1+4 doesn't equal 6, so the remaining layers (I, IV, and VI) are synapsing with ganglion cells of the other (contralateral) optic nerve.
