| high altitude cerebral oedema | <physiology> A serious condition that results from the sudden increase in pressure within the brain due to swelling. This is thought to occur secondary to exposure to high altitudes, generally in excess of 12,000 feet. (12 Jan 1998) |
|---|---|
| stellate cells of cerebral cortex | Small star-shaped cell's in the second and fourth layers of the cortex, and large stellate cell's in the deeper part of the third layer in the visual cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial cerebral veins | The veins on the superficial surface of the cerebral hemispheres; they comprise three groups: superior, middle, and inferior. Synonym: venae cerebri superficiales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior cerebral veins | Numerous (8 to 10) veins that drain the dorsal convexity of the cortical hemisphere and empty into the superior sagittal sinus, curving rostrally in passing through the subdural space so as to enter the sinus at an acute forward angle. Synonym: venae cerebri superiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superolateral cerebral surface | The aspect of the cerebral hemisphere that lies in contact with the flat bones of the skull; it includes parts of the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes. Synonym: facies superolateralis cerebri, cortical convexity, superolateral cerebral surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep cerebral veins | The numerous veins draining the deep structures of the cerebral hemispheres; they empty into the tributaries of the great cerebral vein. Synonym: venae cerebri profundae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| desmoplastic cerebral astrocytoma | <tumour> A rare variant of astrocytoma most frequently occurring in infancy, the tumour has a spindled cell appearance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dominance, cerebral | Dominance of one cerebral hemisphere over the other in cerebral functions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| impressions for cerebral gyri | The depressions on the inner surface of the skull which correspond to the convolutions of the brain. Synonym: impressiones digitatae, digitate impressions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior cerebral surface | The inferior surface of the brain visible when seen from below. Synonym: facies inferior cerebri, basis cerebri, inferior cerebral surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior cerebral veins | Numerous cerebral veins that drain the undersurface of the cerebral hemispheres and empty into the cavernous and transverse sinuses. Synonym: venae cerebri inferiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| internal cerebral veins | Paired veins passing caudally near the midline in the tela choroidea of the third ventricle, formed by the union of the choroid vein, thalamostriate (terminal) vein, and vein of septum pellucidum, and uniting caudally so as to form the great cerebral vein. Synonym: venae cerebri internae, veins of Galen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| occipital cerebral veins | The superior cerebral veins draining the occipital cortex and emptying into the superior sagittal sinus and the transverse sinus. Synonym: venae occipitales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| opening to cerebral aqueduct | Entrance to the cerebral aqueduct (of Sylvius) from the caudal part of the third ventricle. Synonym: aditus ad aqueductum cerebri, Bartholin's anus, opening to cerebral aqueduct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| toxoplasmosis, cerebral | Infection caused by the protozoan toxoplasma that presents itself in a subacute fashion with headache, focal neurologic signs, seizures, or altered mental status which can progress to coma. This condition is a commonly encountered opportunistic infection in aids patients. (12 Dec 1998) |
