| osteitis deformans | This is a disease of bone that initially results in the excessive resorption of bone (by osteoclasts) followed by the replacement of normal bone marrow with vascular and fibrous tissue. Many patients are asymptomatic and diagnosed by routine X-rays. (27 Sep 1997) |
| osteitis pubis | Osteosclerosis of the pubic bone next to the symphysis, caused by trauma to that region, from pregnancy or instrumentation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| focal condensing osteitis | A reaction of bone to a mild bacterial infection, often the result of a carious tooth, in persons with a high degree of tissue resistance; results in a localised radio-opacity. Synonym: focal condensing osteitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| appendix fibrosa hepatis | A fibrous process, into which the tip of the left lobe of the liver may taper out, that passes with the left triangular ligament to be attached to the diaphragm. Synonym: appendix fibrosa hepatis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| articulatio fibrosa | A union of two bones by fibrous tissue such that there is no joint cavity and almost no motion possible; the types of fibrous joints are sutures, syndesmoses, and gomphoses. Synonym: articulatio fibrosa, immovable joint, junctura fibrosa, synarthrodia, synarthrodial joint. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bronchiolitis fibrosa obliterans | Obstruction of bronchioles and alveolar ducts by fibrous granulation tissue induced by mucosal ulceration; the condition may follow inhalation of irritant gases (see silo-filler's lung) or may complicate pneumonia (see BOOP); associated with obstructive findings (see unilateral hyperlucent lung, Swyer-James syndrome). Synonym: bronchiolitis obliterans. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsula fibrosa | Any fibrous envelope of a part. The fibrous capsule of an organ. Synonym: stratum fibrosum, tunica fibrosa, capsula fibrosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsula fibrosa glandulae thyroideae | The fibrous sheath of the thyroid gland. Synonym: capsula fibrosa glandulae thyroideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsula fibrosa perivascularis | A layer of connective tissue ensheathing the hepatic artery, portal vein, and bile ducts as these ramify within the liver. Synonym: capsula fibrosa perivascularis, perivascular fibrous capsule. Connective tissue capsule surrounding the outer surface of the liver, but continuous with septae of some animals which divide parenchyme into lobule, and with the perivascular fibrous capsule at the porta hepatis. Synonym: tunica fibrosa hepatis, Glisson's capsule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| capsula fibrosa renis | A fibrous membrane ensheathing the kidney. Synonym: capsula fibrosa renis, tunica fibrosa renis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina fibrosa tendinis | fibrous tendon sheath |
| cataracta fibrosa | Congenital cataract in which the degenerated lens is replaced with mesodermal tissue. Synonym: cataracta adiposa, cataracta fibrosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membrana fibrosa | The outer fibrous part of the capsule of a synovial joint, which may in places be thickened to form capsular ligaments. Synonym: membrana fibrosa, stratum fibrosum, fibrous membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| myositis fibrosa | Induration of a muscle through an interstitial growth of fibrous tissue. Synonym: Froriep's induration, interstitial myositis, myofascitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
