| arteria pulmonalis sinistra | <anatomy, artery> The shorter of the two terminal branches of the pulmonary trunk, it pierces the pericardium to enter the hilum of the left lung. Its branches accompany the segmental and subsegmental bronchi. Branches to the superior lobe (rami lobi superioris ) are apical (ramus apicalis ), anterior ascending (ramus anterior ascendens ), anterior descending (ramus anterior descendens ), posterior (ramus posterior ), and lingular (ramus lingularis ), the last having inferior and superior branches (rami lingulares inferior et superior ). Branches to the inferior lobe (rami lobi inferioris ) are the superior branch of the inferior lobe (ramus superior lobi inferior ) and the medial (medialis), anterior, lateral (lateralis) and posterior basal branches (rami basalis ). Synonym: arteria pulmonalis sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |

| auricula dextra | The small conical projection from the right atrium of the heart. Synonym: auricula dextra, right auricular appendage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auricula sinistra | The small conical projection from the left atrium of the heart. Synonym: auricula sinistra, left auricular appendage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valva atrioventricularis dextra | <anatomy> This heart valve, named for its three cusps (leaflets), divides the right atrium and the right ventricle. When the right atrium contracts blood flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle. On closure, the tricuspid prohibits the backflow of blood into the right atrium. (19 Jan 1998) |
| valva atrioventricularis sinistra | <anatomy, cardiology> The heart valve that divides the left atrium and left ventricle. During left atrial contraction, the mitral valve opens to allow blood to flow into the left ventricle. Upon closure, the mitral valve prohibits the regurgitation of blood back into the left atrium. The mitral valve is the only heart valve that has only 2 valve cusps (all others have 3). (13 Nov 1997) |
| valvula semilunaris dextra valvae aortae | Right semilunar cusp of the aortic valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvula semilunaris dextra valvae trunci pulmonalis | Right semilunar cusp of the pulmonary valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvula semilunaris sinistra valvae aortae | Left semilunar cusp of the aortic valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvula semilunaris sinistra valvae trunci pulmonalis | Left semilunar cusp of the pulmonary valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus nodi sinuatrialis arteriae coronaria dextra | artery to the sinuatrial (S-A) node |
| vena colica dextra | <anatomy, vein> The vein that parallels the right colic artery and drains blood from the ascending colon and right colic flexure. Synonym: vena colica dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena colica sinistra | <anatomy, vein> A tributary of the inferior mesenteric vein that accompanies the left colic artery and drains the left flexure and descending colon. Synonym: vena colica sinistra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena gastrica dextra | <anatomy, vein> It receives veins from both surfaces of the upper portion of the stomach, runs to the right along the lesser curvature of the stomach, and empties into the portal vein. Synonym: vena gastrica dextra, pyloric vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena gastrica sinistra | <anatomy, vein> Arises from a union of veins from both surfaces of the cardia of the stomach and an oesophageal tributary from the cardiac portion of the oesophagus; it runs in the lesser omentum and empties into the portal vein. See: oesophageal veins. Synonym: vena gastrica sinistra, coronary vein, vena coronaria ventriculi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena gastro-omentalis dextra | <anatomy, vein> A tributary of the superior mesenteric vein that parallels the right gastroepiploic artery along the greater curvature of the stomach. Synonym: vena gastro-omentalis dextra, right gastroomental vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
