| subclavian steal syndrome | <syndrome> Aortic arch syndrome, also referred to by many as vertebral-basilar artery disease, carotid artery occlusive syndrome and subclavian steal syndrome is characterised by a constellation of signs and symptoms which occur secondary to abnormalities in the major arteries which extend off of the aortic arch. These abnormalities are structural and most often secondary to the effects of atherosclerosis, blood clots, trauma or a congenital abnormality. Symptoms of this condition include various neurologic symptoms, reduction in pulse and changes in blood pressure. (27 Sep 1997) |

| subclavian sulcus | A groove on the inferior surface of the body of the clavicle to which is attached the subclavius muscle. Synonym: sulcus musculi subclavii, subclavian sulcus, sulcus subclavianus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subclavian triangle | The triangle bounded by the clavicle, the omohyoid muscle, and the sternocleidomastoid muscle; it contains the subclavian artery and vein. Synonym: fossa supraclavicularis major, trigonum omoclaviculare, greater supraclavicular fossa, omoclavicular triangle, subclavian triangle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subclavian vein | <anatomy, vein> The continuation of the axillary vein which follows the subclavian artery and then joins the internal jugular vein to form the brachiocephalic vein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| accessory nerve trunk | Part of the accessory nerve formed within the cranial cavity by the union of the cranial and spinal roots, which then divides within the jugular foramen into internal and external branches, the former uniting with the vagus, the latter exiting the foramen as in independent branch which is commonly considered to be the accessory nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bathing trunk nevus | These large pigmented (often hairy) congenital nevi are important because of their increased risk (10 to 15%) of conversion into malignant melanoma. A biopsy can confirm if cells have turned malignant. Any change in a pre-existing nevus should prompt a physician evaluation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| bifurcation of pulmonary trunk | The division of the pulmonary trunk into right and left pulmonary arteries. Synonym: bifurcatio trunci pulmonalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| brachiocephalic trunk | The first and largest artery branching from the aortic arch. It distributes blood to the right side of the head and neck and to the right arm. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bronchomediastinal trunk | A lymphatic vessel arising from the union of the efferent lymphatics from the tracheo-bronchial and mediastinal nodes on either side. On the left side, it may be largely replaced by direct drainage into the thoracic duct. Synonym: truncus bronchiomediastinalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagal trunk | One of the two nerve bundles, anterior and posterior, into which the oesophageal plexus continues as it passes through the diaphragm. Synonym: truncus vagalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valve of pulmonary trunk | <anatomy, cardiology> The heart valve that divides the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve opens when the right ventricle contracts allowing blood to flow into the pulmonary artery. The pulmonic valve on closure prohibits the backwash of unoxygenated blood into the right ventricle. The pulmonic valve has 3 valve cusps. (27 Sep 1997) |
| ganglia of sympathetic trunk | The clusters of postganglionic neurons located at intervals along the sympathetic trunks, including the superior cervical, middle cervical, and cervicothoracic (stellate) ganglion, the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral ganglia, and the ganglion impar. Synonym: ganglia trunci sympathici, paravertebral ganglia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ganglion of trunk of vagus | <anatomy, nerve> A large sensory ganglion of the vagus, anterior to the internal jugular vein. Synonym: ganglion inferius nervi vagi, ganglion of trunk of vagus, nodose ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gastric branches of anterior vagal trunk | Anterior gastric branches of the vagus; branches of the anterior vagal trunk to the anterior surface of the stomach. Synonym: rami gastrici anteriores nervi vagi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gastric branches of posterior vagal trunk | Posterior gastric branches; branches of the posterior vagal trunk to the posterior surface of the stomach. Synonym: rami gastrici posteriores nervi vagi. (05 Mar 2000) |
