| conjunctival layer of eyelids | The part of the conjunctiva lining the posterior surface of the eyelids and continuous with the bulbar conjunctiva at the conjunctival fornices. Synonym: tunica conjunctiva palpebrarum, conjunctival layer of eyelids. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| conjunctival reflex | Closure of the eyes in response to irritation of the conjunctiva. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjunctival ring | A narrow ring at the junction of the periphery of the cornea with the conjunctiva. Synonym: annulus conjunctivae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjunctival sac | The space bound by the conjunctival membrane between the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva; into which the lacrimal fluid is secreted; it opens anteriorly between the eyelids. Synonym: saccus conjunctivae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjunctival varix | A varicose condition of the veins of the conjunctiva. Synonym: conjunctival varix. Origin: L. Dim. Of varix (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjunctival veins | The veins of the conjunctiva which drain primarily to the ophthalmic veins. Synonym: venae conjunctivales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior conjunctival artery | <anatomy, artery> One of a series of branches from the arterial arches of the upper and lower eyelids that supplies the conjunctiva. Synonym: arteria conjunctivalis posterior, conjunctival arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| semilunar conjunctival fold | The semilunar fold formed by the palpebral conjunctiva at the medial angle of the eye, a fold of the conjunctival mucous membrane found in many animals; normally partially hidden in the medial canthus of the eye when at rest, it may be extended to cover part or all of the cornea in a winking-like action to clean the cornea, as in birds. Synonym: membrana nictitans, nictitating membrane, palpebra III, palpebra tertia, third eyelid. Synonym: plica lunata, plica semilunaris of eye, semilunar conjunctival fold. (05 Mar 2000) |

| bone cysts | Pathological bone spaces in the metaphyses of long bones of growing children. They are of disputed origin. Cysts may be either empty or filled with fluid and have a delicate connective tissue lining. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bone cysts, aneurysmal | Solitary lesions of bone that typically cause a bulging of the overlying cortex bearing some resemblance to the saccular protrusion of the aortic wall in aortic aneurysm, hence the name. (12 Dec 1998) |
| paraphysial cysts | Cyst's arising from vestigial remnants of the paraphysis; they are the possible origin of some third ventricular colloid cyst's. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glomerular cysts | Cyst's formed by dilatation of Bowman's capsules, found in rare cases of congenital polycystic kidneys. (05 Mar 2000) |
| congenital renal cysts | <radiology> Congenital solitary cyst, multilocular cyst, multicystic disease (renal dysplasia), polycystic disease, autosomal-recessive (childhood) form, autosomal-dominant (adult) form, medullary sponge kidney, medulary cystic disease see also: Potter syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
| multiple renal cysts | <radiology> Adult (autosomal-dominant) polycystic kidney disease, multiple simple cysts, tuberous sclerosis, von Hippel-Lindau syndrome, Meckel-Gruber syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
