| paries tympanicus ductus cochlearis | The wall that separates the cochlear duct from the scala tympani; it consists of the osseous spiral lamina and the basilar membrane. Synonym: paries tympanicus ductus cochlearis, membrana spiralis, spiral membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paries vestibularis ductus cochlearis | The membrane separating the cochlear duct from the vestibular canal; it consists of squamous epithelial cells with microvilli toward the ductus, a basement membrane, and a thin layer of connective tissue toward the scala.

| patent ductus arteriosus | <cardiology, embryology, paediatrics> A condition where the normal channel between the pulmonary artery and the aorta fails to close at birth. In normal foetal circulation the blood bypasses the pulmonary circuit since oxygen and nutrients are acquired through the placenta. After birth, this channel normally closes in response to ventilation of the lungs. Those who are affected may demonstrate poor growth, shortness of breath and rapid respiratory rate. Diagnosis is by echocardiogram and treatment involves the use of indomethacin to stimulate ductus arteriosus closure. Surgical ligation will be required in those cases unresponsive to medical management. (27 Sep 1997) |
| membrana basalis ductus saemicircularis | The basal membrane underlying the epithelium of the saemicircular duct. Synonym: membrana basalis ductus saemicircularis, basal lamina of saemicircular duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
