| arteria sacralis lateralis | <anatomy, artery> Usually one of two arteries which arise from the internal iliac artery or its branches; they supply muscles and skin in the neighborhood and send branches into the sacral canal, supplying radicular and spinal arteries, and continuing on to the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the sacrum. Synonym: arteria sacralis lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria sacralis mediana | <anatomy, artery> Origin, posterior aspect of abdominal aorta just above the bifurcation; distribution, lower lumbar vertebrae, sacrum, and coccyx; anastomoses, lateral sacral, superior and middle rectal. Synonym: arteria sacralis mediana, middle sacral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis sacralis | The continuation of the vertebral canal in the sacrum. Synonym: canalis sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vena sacralis mediana | <anatomy, vein> An unpaired vein accompanying the middle sacral artery receiving blood from the sacral venous plexus and emptying into the left common iliac vein. Synonym: vena sacralis mediana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pars sacralis medullae spinalis | The part of the cord from which consists of the five sacral segments of the spinal cord (S1-S5) and from which five pairs of sacral nerves originate. Synonym: pars sacralis medullae spinalis, segmenta medullae spinalis sacralia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regio sacralis | The area of the back overlying the sacrum. Synonym: regio sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crista sacralis | One of three rough irregular ridges on the posterior surface of the sacrum; median sacral crest; lateral sacral crests. Synonym: crista sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crista sacralis mediana | An unpaired crest formed by the fused spinous processes of the upper four sacral vertebrae. Synonym: crista sacralis mediana. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hiatus sacralis | A normally-occurring gap at the lower end of the sacrum, exposing the vertebral canal, due to failure of the laminae of the last sacral segment to coalesce. It is closed by the sacrococcygeal ligament, and provides cannular access to the sacral epidural space for administration of anaesthetics (caudal nerve blocks). Synonym: hiatus sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hiatus totalis sacralis | Developmental clefting in all sacral vertebrae; may also involve adjacent lumbar vertebrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tuberositas sacralis | A rough prominence on the lateral surface of the sacrum posterior to the auricular surface for attachment of posterior sacroiliac ligaments. Synonym: tuberositas sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| flexura sacralis recti | The anteroposterior curve with concavity anteriorward of the first portion of the rectum. Synonym: flexura sacralis recti. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus alveolaris superior medius nervi infraorbitalis | Synonym: middle superior alveolar branch of infraorbital nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus meningeus medius nervi maxillaris | <anatomy, nerve> Recurrent branch of maxillary nerve distributed with the anterior branch of the middle meningeal arteyr to the meninges of the anterior portion of the middle cranial fossa. Synonym: ramus meningeus medius nervi maxillaris, middle meningeal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
