| limbus | 1. An extramundane region where certain classes of souls were supposed to await the judgment. "As far from help as Limbo is from bliss." (Shak) "A Limbo large and broad, since called The Paradise of fools." (Milton) The limbus patrum was considered as a place for the souls of good men who lived before the coming of our Savior. The limbus infantium was said to be a similar place for the souls of unbaptized infants. To these was added, in the popular belief, the limbus fatuorum, or fool's paradise, regarded as a receptacle of all vanity and nonsense. 2. Hence: Any real or imaginary place of restraint or confinement; a prison; as, to put a man in limbo. 3. <anatomy> A border or margin; as, the limbus of the cornea. 4. A West Indian dance contest, in which participants must dance under a pole which is lowered successively until only one participant can successfully pass under, without falling. [MW10 Jamaican E limba to bend, fr. E. Limber (1950)] Often performed at celebrations, such as weddings. (1950-1996) Origin: L. Limbus border, edge in limbo on the border. Cf. Limb border.

| limbus corneae | An annular transitional zone, approximately 1 mm wide, between the cornea and the bulbar conjunctiva and sclera. It is highly vascular and is involved in the metabolism of the cornea. It is ophthalmologically significant in that it appears on the outer surface of the eyeball as a slight furrow, marking the line between the clear cornea and the sclera. (12 Dec 1998) |
| limbus fossae ovalis | A muscular ring surrounding the fossa ovalis in the wall of the right atrium of the heart. Synonym: annulus ovalis, margin of fossa ovalis, Vieussens' annulus, Vieussens' isthmus, Vieussens' limbus, Vieussens' ring. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus laminae spiralis osseae | The border of the spiral lamina; the thickened periosteum covering the upper plate of the bony spiral lamina of the cochlea. Synonym: limbus laminae spiralis osseae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus membranae tympani | Margin of the tympanic membrane attaching to the tympanic sulcus. Synonym: limbus membranae tympani. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus of bony spiral lamina | The border of the spiral lamina; the thickened periosteum covering the upper plate of the bony spiral lamina of the cochlea. Synonym: limbus laminae spiralis osseae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus of cornea | The margin of the cornea overlapped by the sclera. Synonym: limbus corneae, corneal margin, sclerocorneal junction. (05 Mar 2000) |

| limbus striatus | Obsolete term for the apical surface of an epithelium with microvilli. (18 Nov 1997) |
| adenocarcinoma, bronchiolo-alveolar | A carcinoma thought to be derived from epithelium of terminal bronchioles, in which the neoplastic tissue extends along the alveolar walls and grows in small masses within the alveoli. Involvement may be uniformly diffuse and massive, or nodular, or lobular. The neoplastic cells are cuboidal or columnar and form papillary structures. Mucin may be demonstrated in some of the cells and in the material in the alveoli, which also includes denuded cells. Metastases in regional lymph nodes, and in even more distant sites, are known to occur, but are infrequent. (12 Dec 1998) |
