| craniopharyngeal duct | The slender tubular part of the hypophysial diverticulum; the stalk of Rathke's pocket. Synonym: bucconeural duct, hypophysial duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior branch of right hepatic duct | Hepatic duct branch draining bile from posterior segments of right lobe of liver. Synonym: ramus posterior ductus hepatici dextri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cystic duct | <anatomy> A bile duct that connects the gallbladder to the common bile duct. A gallstone that blocks the cystic duct can lead to inflammation and infection of the gallbladder. See: common bile duct. (27 Sep 1997) |
| cystic duct cholangiography | Radiography of the biliary system after introduction of contrast medium through the cystic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cystic gall duct | The ductus leading from the gallbladder; it joins the hepatic duct to form the common bile duct. Synonym: ductus cysticus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salivary duct | A type of intralobular duct found in some salivary glands that modifies the secretory product; it derives its name from extensive infolding of the basal membrane. Synonym: salivary duct, secretory duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| salivary duct calculi | Small calculi found in the terminal salivary ducts may be referred to as salivary sand. Larger calculi (stones) are found in the larger ducts, such as stensen's duct and wharton's duct. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Santorini's duct | The excretory duct of the head of the pancreas, one branch of which joins the pancreatic duct, the other opening independently into the duodenum at the lesser duodenal papilla. Synonym: ductus pancreaticus accessorius, Bernard's canal, Bernard's duct, ductus dorsopancreaticus, Santorini's canal, Santorini's duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hemithoracic duct | An accessory thoracic duct, usually emptying into the thoracic duct but sometimes discharging independently into the right subclavian vein. Synonym: ductus hemithoracicus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Hensen's duct | A short membranous tube passing from the lower end of the saccule to the cochlear duct of the membranous labyrinth. Synonym: ductus reuniens, canaliculus reuniens, canalis reuniens, Hensen's canal, Hensen's duct, uniting canal. (05 Mar 2000) |

| hepatic duct | See: common hepatic duct, right hepatic duct, left hepatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hepatic duct, common | Predominantly extrahepatic bile duct which is formed by the junction of the right and left hepatic ducts, which are predominantly intrahepatic, and, in turn, joins the cystic duct to form the common bile duct. (12 Dec 1998) |
| hepatocystic duct | The part of the biliary duct system that is formed by the confluence of right and left hepatic ducts. at the porta hepatis it is joined by the cystic duct to become the common bile duct. Synonym: ductus hepaticus communis, hepatocystic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
