Transverse muscle of tongue

Intrinsic muscle of the tongue

The transverse muscle of tongue is an intrinsic muscle of the tongue. It consists of fibers which arise from the median fibrous septum. It passes laterally to insert into the submucous fibrous tissue at the sides of the tongue. It is innervated by the hypoglossal nerve. Its contraction elongates and narrows the tongue.
