| posttraumatic arterial thrombosis | Posttraumatic venous thrombosis, intravascular clotting due to injury to a vessel wall. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus thrombosis | Formation of a clot in a cerebral venous sinus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| deep venous thrombosis | <cardiology> A blood clot that forms in a vein resulting in obstruction of venous flow. most common clinically in the lower extremities. (27 Sep 1997) |
| dilation thrombosis | Thrombosis due to slowed circulation consequent upon dilation of a vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thrombosis | <haematology> The formation, development or presence of a thrombus. (14 May 1997) |
| effort-induced thrombosis | <syndrome> Stress thrombosis or spontaneous thrombosis of the subclavian or axillary vein; a thoracic-outlet syndrome. Synonym: effort-induced thrombosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| embolism and thrombosis | A collective term for diseases characterised by the formation, development, or presence of a thrombus (thrombosis) and the blocking of a vessel by the thrombus brought to its site by the blood current (embolism). (12 Dec 1998) |
| ascending branch of the inferior mesenteric artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of the left colic artery (from inferior mesenteric artery) that passes anteriorly to the left kidney into the transverse mesocolon, where it anastomoses with the middle colic artery. It thus forms an anastomosis between superior and inferior mesenteric arteries, and is a component of the marginal artery (Drummond) of the colon. Synonym: arteria ascendens, arteria intermesenterica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central mesenteric lymph nodes | The mesenteric lymph nodes located along the intestinal (jejunal and ileal) branches of the superior mesenteric artery. Synonym: nodi lymphatici superiores centrales, central mesenteric lymph nodes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mesenteric | <anatomy> Pertaining to the mesentery: a membranous fold attaching various organs to the body wall. Origin: Gr. Mesenterikos (18 Nov 1997) |
| mesenteric adenopathy | <radiology> 4% in Hodgkin's disease, 50% in non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, ** sandwich sign (12 Dec 1998) |
| mesenteric arteries | Arteries which arise from the abdominal aorta and distribute to most of the intestines. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mesenteric artery, inferior | The artery supplying nearly all the left half of the transverse colon, the whole of the descending colon, the sigmoid colon, and the greater part of the rectum. It is smaller than the superior mesenteric artery (mesenteric artery, superior) and arises from the aorta above its bifurcation into the common iliac arteries. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mesenteric artery occlusion | Obstruction of arterial flow in the mesenteric circulation by an embolus or thrombus; usually refers to occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery, although atherosclerotic narrowing may involve all three major splanchnic branches (coeliac, superior, and inferior mesenteric).
