| crista basilaris ductus cochlearis | An inward projection of the spiral ligament of the cochlea to which is attached the basilar membrane forming the floor of the cochlear duct. Synonym: crista basilaris ductus cochlearis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| nervus cochlearis | <anatomy, nerve> The cochlear part of the acoustic (8th cranial) nerve. The cochlear nerve fibres originate from neurons of the spiral ganglion and project peripherally to cochlear hair cells and centrally to the cochlear nuclei of the brainstem. They mediate the sense of hearing. (12 Dec 1998) |
| stria vascularis ductus cochlearis | The stratified epithelium lining the upper part of the ligamentum spirale cochleae; it is penetrated by capillaries and is believed to be the site of production of endolymph. Synonym: stria vascularis ductus cochlearis, psalterial cord, vascular stripe. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclei nervi cochlearis | The nucleus cochlearis dorsalis and nucleus cochlearis ventralis, located on the dorsal and lateral surface of the inferior cerebellar peduncle, in the floor of the lateral recess of the rhomboid fossa. They receive the incoming fibres of the cochlear part of the vestibulocochlear nerve and are the major source of origin of the lateral lemniscus or central auditory pathway. Synonym: cochlear nuclei, nuclei nervi cochlearis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ductus cochlearis | Spiral tube in the bony canal of the cochlea, lying on its outer wall between the scala vestibuli and scala tympani. (12 Dec 1998) |
| labyrinthus cochlearis | The content of the cochlea including the portion of the membranous labyrinth containing the spiral organ (cochlear duct) and the perilymphatic channels (scalae) which lie on either side. Synonym: labyrinthus cochlearis, organ of hearing. (05 Mar 2000) |
| annulus tendineus communis | A fibrous ring that surrounds the optic canal and the medial part of the superior orbital fissure; it gives origin to the four rectus muscles of the eye and is partially fused with the sheath of the optic nerve. Synonym: annulus tendineus communis, Zinn's ligament, Zinn's ring, Zinn's tendon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina communis musculorum flexorum | The synovial sheath that surrounds the eight tendons of the superficial and deep flexors of the digits of the hand as they pass through the carpal canal; it is commonly continuous with the digital sheath of the little finger. Synonym: vagina communis musculorum flexorum, ulnar bursa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina tendinum musculorum fibularium communis | An alternate term for common peroneal tendon sheath. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina tendinum musculorum peroneorum communis | The sheath that surrounds the tendons of the peroneus longus and brevis muscles in their passage across the ankle. Synonym: vagina tendinum musculorum peroneorum communis, vagina tendinum musculorum fibularium communis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| macula communis | The thickened area in the medial wall of the auditory vesicle that later subdivides to form the maculae of the sacculus and utriculus as well as the cristae of the ampullae of the saemicircular ducts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus communicans fibularis nervi fibularis communis | The peroneal (fibular) communicating branch of the common peroneal (fibular) nerve; it arises from the common peroneal nerve in the popliteal space and passes over the lateral head of the gastrocnemius to the middle third of the leg, where it unites with the medial sural cutaneous nerve to form the sural nerve. Synonym: ramus communicans fibularis nervi fibularis communis, ramus communicans peroneus nervi peronei communis, nervus communicans fibularis, nervus communicans peroneus, peroneal anastomotic ramus, peroneal communicating nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus communicans peroneus nervi peronei communis | An alternate term for peroneal communicating branch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena basalis communis | <anatomy, vein> The tributary to the inferior pulmonary vein (right and left) that receives blood from the superior and inferior basal veins. Synonym: vena basalis communis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena facialis communis | <anatomy, vein> A short vessel formed by the union of the facial vein and the retromandibular vein, emptying into the jugular vein; considered to be a continuation of the facial vein in the NA. Synonym: vena facialis communis. (05 Mar 2000) |
