Medical Definition of Sciatic nerve. Sciatic nerve: The largest nerve in the body, the sciatic nerve begins from nerve roots in the lumbar part of the spinal cord (in the low back) and extends through the buttock area to send nerve endings down to the legs. Pain resulting from irritation of the sciatic nerve is called sciatica.
The sciatic nerve is the dominant nerve that innervates the lower back and the lower extremities. It travels from the lower spine, through the pelvis, and down each leg. It is the longest and widest nerve in the human body. The sciatic nerve primarily supplies the muscles of the lower leg, including the calf, ankle, and the back portion of the knee. It also supplies sensation to the sole of the foot, the ankle, the entire lower leg, and the back of the thigh. The sciatic nerve branches into different parts of the body along its path, hence its ability to supply such a large area of the body.
