| 영문 | male reproductive system | 한글 | 남성생식기계 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 남성의 생식기는 여러 기관으로 구성되어 있다. 고환, 부고환, 정관, 정낭, 전립샘, 외부성기(음경) 등으로 구성되는데, 실제적으로 정자를 생성하는 곳은 단 한 곳 고환뿐이며, 나머지 기관은 이를 돕는 기능을 수행하고 있다. 정자는 고환의 정세관이란 곳에서 만들어진 뒤에 밖으로 나와 긴 여정을 시작하게 된다. 그 뒤 부고환을 지나 좀 더 성숙해 진 뒤에 정관에서 정낭의 분비물과 만나고 다시 요도로 나가게 된다. 이때 요도 뒤쪽에 위치하는 전립샘의 분비물이 합쳐지게 되고 이 정액은 외부성기를 거쳐서 밖으로 나가게 된다.  |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 세포성분 및 분자성분의 복합체계로서, 이의 일차기능은 자기(self)를 비자기(not self)로부터 구별하고 외부생물 또는 물질에 대해 방어하는 것이다. 일차적인 세포성분은 림프구와 큰포식세포이며 일차적인 분자성분은 항체와 림포카인이다. |

| adrenal cortical carcinomas | Large invasive and metastasizing tumours which may cause virilism or Cushing's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| adrenal cortical syndrome | <syndrome> An inexact (and obsolete) term that has been applied to Cushing's syndrome, Addison's disease, or the adrenogenital syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adrenal crisis | <endocrinology> An abrupt life-threatening state which is caused by insufficient production of cortisol by the adrenal gland. A typical finding in Addison's disease. Individuals who have been taking corticosteroids (glucocorticoids) for a prolonged period of time (weeks to months) are at risk for acute adrenal crisis if the medication is stopped abruptly. For this reason, corticosteroid medication are withdrawn slowly on a diminishing dosing schedule. Symptoms include low blood pressure (shock), weakness, headache, vomiting, fever chills, tachycardia and sweating. Treatment includes blood pressure support and intravenous hydrocortisone. (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal cyst | <radiology> Same characteristics as renal cysts, but less common, thick wall, septations, calcifications suggests pseudocyst (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal gland | <anatomy, endocrinology> This gland is found above each kidney and it made up of an outer wall (cortex) that secretes important steroid hormones and an inner portion (medulla) that produces adrenaline (adrenaline) and noradrenaline (noradrenaline). The hormones help control heart rate, blood pressure, the way the body uses food, and other vital functions. (25 Jun 1999) |
| adrenal gland hypofunction | Adrenocortical hypofunction includes all conditions in which adrenal steroid hormone secretion falls below the requirements of the body. Adrenal insufficiency may be divided into two general categories: (1) those associated with primary inability of the adrenal to elaborate sufficient quantities of hormone and (2) those associated with a secondary failure due to a primary failure in the elaboration of adrenocorticotropin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal gland insufficiency | <endocrinology> A condition that results from the inadequate production of adrenal hormones (see Addison's disease). (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal gland tumour | <oncology> A benign tumour or adenoma, that usually results in the excess production of adrenal gland hormones. (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal haemorrhage | <radiology> Neonate, right more common, 10% bilateral, birth trauma, hypoxia, septicaemia, congenital syphilis, haemorrhagic disorders (haemophilia, etc.) adult, septicaemia (Waterhouse-Friderichsen syndrome), tumour, trauma Notes: usually resolves in 4-6 weeks, adrenal insufficiency rare, even if bilateral, may calcify (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal hermaphroditism | Altered appearance of the genitalia due to disorders of adrenocortical function, most often female virilization; not an example of true hermaphroditism. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adrenal hyperplasia | <pathology> A condition of diffuse enlargement of the adrenal glands. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal hyperplasia, congenital | A group of inherited disorders of adrenal steroidogenesis, the physical expression of which varies with the sex of the patient, the severity of the congenital enzyme defect, and the age at which the defect makes its presence felt. The most common form, the simple virilizing form, is due to a 21-hydroxylase deficiency. There is also a salt-losing form (a more complete 21-hydroxylase deficiency), a hypertensive form (11-hydroxylase deficiency), a 17-hydroxylase deficiency form, a desmolase deficiency form, and a 3-beta-hydroxysteroid deficiency form. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal hypertension | Hypertension due to an adrenal medullary pheochromocytoma or to hyperactivity or functioning tumour of the adrenal cortex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adrenal imaging | <radiology> Cortex, I-131 iodo-cholesterol, not widely used due to high rad dose and 4-15 day delayed imaging, medulla, search for pheo, MIBG (I-131 meta-iodobenzylguanidine) (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal insufficiency | <endocrinology> A condition that results from the inadequate production of adrenal hormones (see Addison's disease). (27 Sep 1997) |
