Dentate gyrus, one of the two interlocking gyri composing the hippocampus, the other one being the Ammon's horn. Synonym: gyrus dentatus, dentate fascia, fascia dentata hippocampi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep transverse metacarpal ligament | <anatomy> The ligament that interconnects the palmar surface of the heads of the second to fifth metacarpals, being continuous with the palmar ligaments on palmar plates; it lies in the plane of the palmar interosseous fascia. Synonym: ligamentum metacarpale transversum profundum, transverse metacarpal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
