| membranous lipodystrophy | A rare metabolic disease in which bone marrow fat cells are transformed into thick convoluted PAS-staining membranes enclosing weakly osmophilic material; leads to progressive cystic resorption of limb bones and dementia with sudanophilic leukodystrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|
| partial face-sparing lipodystrophy | A syndrome beginning at puberty that resembles total lipodystrophy but is inherited as an autosomal or X-linked dominant form. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| congenital total lipodystrophy | Lipodystrophy characterised by almost complete lack of subcutaneous fat, accelerated rate of growth and skeletal development during the first 3 to 4 years of life, muscular hypertrophy, cardiac enlargement, hepatosplenomegaly, hypertrichosis, renal enlargement, hypertriglyceridemia, and hypermetabolism; both autosomal dominant and X-linked varieties exist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| progressive lipodystrophy | A condition characterised by a complete loss of the subcutaneous fat of the upper part of the torso, the arms, neck, and face, sometimes with an increase of fat in the tissues about and below the pelvis. Synonym: Barraquer's disease, lipodystrophia progessiva superior, partial lipoatrophy, Simons' disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| insulin lipodystrophy | Dystrophic atrophy of subcutaneous tissues in diabetics at the site of frequent injections of insulin. Synonym: insulin lipoatrophy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intestinal lipodystrophy | <gastroenterology> A rare disorder of intestinal malabsorption that occurs as the result of the intestine. Treatment is with antibiotics. (27 Sep 1997) |
| familial lipodystrophy | Autosomal dominant; partial lip associated with multifacial hypoplasin, retarded bone age, and hypotichosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lipodystrophy | 1. <biochemistry> Any disturbance of fat metabolism. 2. A group of conditions due to defective metabolism of fat, resulting in the absence of subcutaneous fat, which may be congenital or acquired and partial or total. Synonym: lipoatrophy, lipodystrophia. (18 Nov 1997) |
| glomerulonephritis, membranous | A disease of the glomerulus manifested clinically by proteinuria, and sometimes by other features of the nephrotic syndrome. It is histologically characterised by deposits in the glomerular capillary wall between the epithelial cell and the basement membrane and a thickening of the membrane. Also characteristic are outward projections of the membrane between the epithelial deposits in the form of "spikes". There is some agreement that the deposits are antigen-antibody complexes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| membranous | Having a thin, soft, pliable texture. (09 Oct 1997) |
| membranous ampulla | A nearly spherical enlargement of one end of each of the three saemicircular ducts, anterior, posterior, and lateral, where they connect with the utricle. Each contains a neuroepithelial crista ampullaris. Synonym: ampulla membranacea, membranous ampulla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous cataract | A secondary cataract composed of the remains of the thickened capsule and degenerated lens fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous cochlea | Spiral tube in the bony canal of the cochlea, lying on its outer wall between the scala vestibuli and scala tympani. (12 Dec 1998) |
| membranous conjunctivitis | A severe conjunctival inflammation caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae and characterised by an infiltrating membrane which on removal leaves a raw surface. Synonym: membranous conjunctivitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous dysmenorrhoea | Dysmenorrhoea accompanied by an exfoliation of the menstrual decidua. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous glomerulonephritis | <pathology> A kidney disease that occurs due to inflammation of the kidney glomerulus and its basement membrane. The exact cause is unknown but it appears to be related to the deposition of immune complexes in the basement membrane leading to thickening of the capillary walls. This disorder is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome an is usually how the disease manifests. Risk factors include primary renal disease, malaria, hepatitis B, lupus, syphilis, cancers and non-Hodgkin's lymphomas. Risks also include exposure to some medications such as gold compounds and penicillamine. Mercury, trimethadione and some skin-lightening creams have also been implicated. Treatment includes systemic corticosteroids and immunosuppressive agents. (26 Mar 1998) |
