nevus elasticus (탄력 섬유성 모반
| plexus venosus sacralis | A venous plexus on the pelvic surface of the sacrum, formed by tributaries to the lateral sacral veins. Synonym: plexus venosus sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| plexus venosus suboccipitalis | The extensive plexus of veins in the suboccipital region. Synonym: plexus venosus suboccipitalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus venosus uterinus | The plexiform veins that lie along the sides of the uterus in the broad ligament. Synonym: plexus venosus uterinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus venosus vaginalis | The plexus of veins that surrounds the vagina. Synonym: plexus venosus vaginalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus venosus vertebralis | Any of four interconnected venous networks surrounding the vertebral column; anterior external vertebral venous plexus, the small system around the vertebral bodies; posterior external vertebral venous plexus, the extensive system around the vertebral processes; anterior internal vertebral venous plexus, the system running the length of the vertebral canal anterior to the dura; posterior internal vertebral venous plexus, the system running the length of the vertebral canal posterior to the dura; the latter two constitute the epidural venous plexus. Synonym: plexus venosus vertebralis, Batson's plexus, vertebral venous plexus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus venosus vesicalis | A plexus of veins around the fundus and sides of the bladder. Synonym: plexus venosus vesicalis, venous plexus of bladder. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulsus venosus | A pulsation occurring in the veins, especially the internal jugular vein. Synonym: pulsus venosus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus venosus | A cavity at the caudal end of the embryonic cardiac tube in which the veins from the intra-and extraembryonic circulatory arcs unite; in the course of development it forms the portion of the right atrium known in adult anatomy as the sinus of the vena cava. Synonym: saccus reuniens. Sinus venosus sclerae, the vascular structure encircling the anterior chamber of the eye and through which the aqueous is returned to the blood circulation. Synonym: circular sinus, Fontana's canal, Lauth's canal, Schlemm's canal, sinus circularis, venous sinus of sclera. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus venosus syndrome | <syndrome> The association of partial anomalous, pulmonary-venous connection, and a small venosus ASD. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ductus venosus | In the foetus, continuation of the left umbilical vein through the liver to the vena cava inferior; after birth, its lumen becomes obliterated, forming the ligamentum venosum. Ductus venosus arantii, rarely used term for ductus venosus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fossa of ductus venosus | A wide groove located posteriorly on the undersurface of the foetal liver between the caudate and left lobes; it lodges the ductus venosus and becomes the fissure of the ligamentum venosum in the adult. Synonym: fossa ductus venosi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acquired nevus | A melanocytic nevus that is not visible at birth, but appears in childhood or adult life. (05 Mar 2000) |
| balloon cell nevus | A nevus in which many of the cells are large, with clear cytoplasm. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal cell nevus | A hereditary disease noted in infancy or adolescence, characterised by lesions of the eyelids, nose, cheeks, neck, and axillae, appearing as uneroded flesh-coloured papules, some becoming pedunculated, and histologically indistinguishable from basal cell epithelioma; also noted are punctate keratotic lesions of the palms and soles; the lesions usually remain benign, but in some cases ulceration and invasion occur and are evidence of malignant change; autosomal dominant inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal cell nevus syndrome | <syndrome> An inherited group of defects which involve abnormalities of the skin, eyes, nervous system, endocrine, glands and bones. The condition is characterised by an unusual facial appearance and a predisposition for skin cancer. (27 Sep 1997) |
