| geniculate otalgia | A severe paroxysmal lancinating pain deep in the ear, on the anterior wall of the external meatus, and on a small area just in front of the pinna. Synonym: geniculate otalgia, Hunt's neuralgia, neuralgia facialis vera. (05 Mar 2000) |
| geniculate zoster | Herpes zoster involving the facial and auditory nerves associated with ipsilateral facial paralysis, usually transitory, and herpetic vesicles of the external ear or tympanic membrane, which also may or may not be associated with tinnitus, vertigo, and hearing disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |
| medial geniculate body | The medial one of a pair of prominent cell groups in the posteroinferior parts of the thalamus; it functions as the last of a series of processing stations along the auditory conduction pathway to the cerebral cortex, receiving the brachium of the inferior colliculus and giving rise to the auditory radiation to the auditory cortex in the superior temporal gyrus. Synonym: corpus geniculatum mediale, corpus geniculatum internum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dorsal lateral cutaneous nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The continuation of the sural nerve in the foot, supplying the lateral margin and dorsum. Synonym: nervus cutaneus dorsalis lateralis, dorsal lateral cutaneous nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral dorsal cutaneous nerve | <anatomy, nerve> The continuation of the sural nerve in the foot, supplying the lateral margin and dorsum. Synonym: nervus cutaneus dorsalis lateralis, dorsal lateral cutaneous nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral crus of horizontal part of the facial canal | Laterally-placed, posteriorly-directed second portion of the horizontal part of the facial canal. See: horizontal part of facial canal. Synonym: lateral crus of horizontal part of the facial canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral part of occipital bone | The part of the occipital bone that lies on either side of the foramen magnum. Synonym: pars lateralis ossis occipitalis, exoccipital bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral part of posterior cervical intertransversarii muscles | lateral part of posterior cervical intertransversarii muscles |
| lateral part of sacrum | The lateral mass of the sacrum formed by the fused costal elements. Synonym: pars lateralis ossis sacri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral part of vaginal fornix | lateral part of vaginal fornix |
| ventral lateral nucleus of thalamus | The composite middle third of the ventral nucleus receiving in its various parts distinctive projections from the contralateral half of the cerebellum (by way of the superior cerebellar peduncle) and the ipsilateral globus pallidus; nearly all parts of the nucleus projects to the motor cortex. Synonym: nucleus ventralis intermedius thalami, nucleus ventralis lateralis, ventral lateral nucleus of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central lateral nucleus of thalamus | The most lateral of the intralaminar nuclei of the thalamus. Synonym: nucleus centralis lateralis thalami. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus of lateral lemniscus | A substantial cell mass embedded in the lateral lemniscus, immediately below the latter's entry into the inferior colliculus; the nucleus represents a synaptic way-station for part of the fibres of the lateral lemniscus. Synonym: nucleus lemnisci lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral cuneate nucleus | A cell group lateral to the cuneate nucleus which receives posterior-root fibres corresponding to the proprioceptive innervation of the arm and hand; it projects to the cerebellum by way of the cuneocerebellar tract, and can be considered the upper-extremity equivalent of the thoracic nucleus. Synonym: nucleus cuneatus accessorius, external cuneate nucleus, lateral cuneate nucleus, Monakow's nucleus. (05 Mar 2000) |
