| ventro- | <anatomy, prefix> A combining form used in anatomy to indicate connection with, or relation to, the abdomen; also, connection with, relation to, or direction toward, the ventral side; as, ventrolateral; ventro-inguinal. Origin: L. Venter = belly. (29 Oct 1998) |

| ventrobasal nucleus | The large posterior part of the ventral nucleus of the thalamus receiving the somatic sensory lemnisci (medial lemniscus, spinothalamic tract, trigeminal lemniscus) and the ascending gustatory (taste) lemniscus, and projecting in turn by way of the internal capsule to the cortex of the postcentral gyrus. The nucleus is somatotopically organised and subdivided into a ventral posterolateral nucleus of thalamus representing the leg, a ventral posterior intermediate nucleus of thalamus representing the arm, a ventral posteromedial nucleus of thalamus representing the face, and an arcuate nucleus of thalamus receiving the gustatory lemniscus. Synonym: nucleus ventralis posterior thalami, ventrobasal nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventrocystorrhaphy | Synonym: cystopexy. Origin: ventro-+ G. Kystis, cyst, + rhaphe, suture (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventrodorsad | In a direction from the venter to the dorsum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventroinguinal | <anatomy> Relating to the abdomen and the groin or to the abdomen and inguinal canal; as, ventro-inguinal hernia. Source: Websters Dictionary (21 Jun 2000) |
| ventrolateral | <anatomy> Both ventral and lateral, i.e., to the front and to the side. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus | <anatomy> A nucleus of the middle hypothalamus, the largest cell group of the tuberal region with small-to-medium size cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
| ventromedial nucleus of hypothalamus | <anatomy> A circumscript ovoid group of small neurons in the medial zone of the tuberal region of the hypothalamus. Bilateral destruction of this nucleus in the rat leads to severe obesity. It receives numerous fibres from the amygdala via the terminal stria; its efferent connections are obscure. Synonym: nucleus ventromedialis hypothalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventromedian | Relating to the midline of the ventral surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventroptosis | Ventroptosia Synonym: gastroptosis. Origin: ventro-+ G. Ptosis, a falling (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventroscopy | Synonym: peritoneoscopy. Origin: ventro-+ G. Skopeo, to view (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventrotomy | Synonym: celiotomy. Origin: ventro-+ G. Tome, incision (05 Mar 2000) |

| ventricular fibrillation |
A condition in which the purposeful, forceful, and rhythmic contraction of the ventricle is lost. Ventricular fibrillation is one of several conditions known as "arrhythmias". With ventricular fibrillation, the heart muscle has no purposeful contractile motion, which results in a loss of the pumping action of the heart. Ventricular fibrillation is fatal if not quickly treated. Ventricular fibrillation can be treated with medications, or through an electrical shock known as a defibrillation.
