| anterior tibiotalar part of deltoid ligament | <anatomy> The part of the medial or deltoid ligament that extends from the medial malleolus to the neck of the talus. Synonym: pars tibiotalaris anterior ligamenti medialis, anterior talotibial ligament, anterior tibiotalar part of deltoid ligament, ligamentum medialis, ligamentum talotibiale anterius.

| postcommunical part of anterior cerebral artery | <anatomy, artery> The continuation of the anterior cerebral artery after the anterior communicating artery; it supplies branches to the cerebral cortex as it passes along the corpus callosum. Synonym: pars postcommunicalis arteria cerebri anterior, arteria pericallosa, postcommunical part of anterior cerebral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precommunical part of anterior cerebral artery | precommunical part of anterior cerebral artery |
| distal part of anterior lobe of hypophysis | The larger part of the adenohypophysis composed of cords of epithelial cells individually specialised to secrete various tropic hormones that exert their effect on several target organs in the body. The secretory activity of these cells is under the control of either releasing or inhibiting factors elaborated by hypothalamic neurons and transported to the adenohypophysis by the hypothalamo-hypophysial portal system. Synonym: pars distalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ala central lobule | The lateral winglike projection of the central lobule of the cerebellum. Synonym: ala lobuli centralis, ala cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ansiform lobule | Comprises the greater part of the hemisphere of the cerebellum; its superior and inferior surfaces are separated by the horizontal fissure into major parts known as crus I (superior semilunar lobule) and crus II (inferior semilunar lobule). (05 Mar 2000) |
| biventer lobule | A lobule on the undersurface of each cerebellar hemisphere, divided by a curved sulcus into a lateral and medial portion; it corresponds to the pyramid of the vermis. Synonym: lobulus biventer, biventral lobule, cuneiform lobe, lobulus biventralis, lobulus cuneiformis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biventral lobule | A lobule on the undersurface of each cerebellar hemisphere, divided by a curved sulcus into a lateral and medial portion; it corresponds to the pyramid of the vermis. Synonym: lobulus biventer, biventral lobule, cuneiform lobe, lobulus biventralis, lobulus cuneiformis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paracentral lobule | A division of the medial aspect of the cerebral cortex, lying above the singulate sulcus and bounded by the precentral sulcus in front and the marginal part of the cingulate sulcus behind. Synonym: lobulus paracentralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal cortical lobule | One of the subdivisions of the kidney, consisting of a medullary ray and that portion of the convoluted port (renal corpuscles and convoluted tubules) associated with its collecting duct. Synonym: lobulus corticalis renalis, renal cortical lobule, renculus, reniculus, renunculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central lobule | A division of the superior vermis of the cerebellum between the lingula and the monticulus. Synonym: lobulus centralis cerebelli, central lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central lobule of cerebellum | A division of the superior vermis of the cerebellum between the lingula and the monticulus. Synonym: lobulus centralis cerebelli, central lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| respiratory lobule | The part of the airway consisting of a respiratory bronchiole and all of its branches. Synonym: primary pulmonary lobule, respiratory lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gracile lobule | The anterior portion of the posteroinferior lobule of the cerebellum, the posterior portion being the semilunar lobule inferior; the two correspond to the tuber of the vermis. Synonym: lobulus gracilis, slender lobule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| portal lobule of liver | A conceptual unit of the liver, emphasizing its exocrine function in bile secretion, which comprises a roughly triangular shaped cross-sectional area with a portal canal at its centre and three or more venae centrales hepatis at its periphery. (05 Mar 2000) |
