| septal | Relating to a septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| septal area | The region of the cerebral hemisphere that stretches as a thin sheet of brain tissue between the fornix bundle and the ventral surface of the corpus callosum, forming the medial wall of the lateral ventricle's frontal horn; it extends ventrally through the narrow interval between the anterior commissure and the rostrum of corpus collosum as the precommissural septum or subcallosal gyrus, which is continuous caudally with the preoptic area and hypothalamus, as well as more laterally with the innominate substance; its major functional connections are with the hippocampus and hypothalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the superior labial artery that supplies the lower part of the nasal septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal bone | The tissue intervening between two adjacent pulmonary alveoli; it consists of a close-meshed capillary network covered on both surfaces by very thin alveolar epithelial cells, one of the bony partitions between the tooth sockets. Synonym: septum interalveolare, alveolar septum, septal bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal branches | The interventricular septal branches; branches of the anterior and posterior interventricular arteries distributed to the muscle of the interventricular septum. Synonym: rami interventriculares septales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal cartilage | A thin cartilaginous plate located between vomer, perpendicular plate of the ethmoid, and nasal bones, and completing the nasal septum anteriorly. Synonym: cartilago septi nasi, cartilage of nasal septum, cartilaginous septum, pars cartilaginea septi nasi, quadrangular cartilage, septal cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal cell | A round pale cell of the lungs in the septa between the pulmonary alveoli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal cusp of tricuspid valve | The leaflet of the tricuspid valve located adjacent to the interventricular septum. Synonym: cuspis septalis valvae atrioventricularis dextrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal defect, atrial | A hole in the septum, the wall, between the atria, the upper chambers of the heart. Commonly called an asd. Asds are a major class of heart deformity that is present at birth (congenital cardiac malformation). (12 Dec 1998) |
| septal defect, ventricular | A hole in the interventricular septum, the wall between the ventricles, the lower chambers of the heart. Commonly called a vsd. Vsds are a common class of heart deformity that is present at birth (congenital cardiac malformation). (12 Dec 1998) |
| septal gingiva | That portion of the gingiva that covers the interdental septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal lines | Radiographic images of thickened interlobular septa, most often along the lateral border of lung, extending to pleura; Kerley A and B lines; usually caused by septal oedema and fibrosis, also carcinomatosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| septal nuclei | Neural nuclei situated in the septal region of the diencephalon. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sphenoid process of septal cartilage | The tapering extension of the septal cartilage that lies between the perpendicular plate of the ethmoid and the vomer. Synonym: processus posterior cartilaginis septi nasi, processus sphenoidalis cartilaginis septi nasi, sphenoid process of septal cartilage. (05 Mar 2000) |
| defect, atrial septal | A hole in the septum, the wall, between the atria, the upper chambers of the heart. Commonly called an ASD. ASDs are a major class of congenital cardiac malformation. (12 Dec 1998) |
