| external iliac plexus | A lymphatic plexus formed by the lymph nodes along the external iliac artery on either side, and their afferent and efferent vessels. Synonym: plexus iliacus externus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| external maxillary plexus | An autonomic plexus on the facial artery derived from the external carotid plexus; it sends a branch to the submandibular ganglion. Synonym: external maxillary plexus, plexus maxillaris externus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus auricularis posterior | An autonomic plexus on the artery of this name, derived from the external carotid plexus. Synonym: plexus auricularis posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior auricular plexus | An autonomic plexus on the artery of this name, derived from the external carotid plexus. Synonym: plexus auricularis posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior cord of brachial plexus | In the brachial plexus, the bundle of nerve fibres formed by the posterior divisions of the upper, middle and lower trunks which lies posterior to the axillary artery; it gives rise to the upper and lower subscapular and thoracodorsal nerves, terminates by dividing into the axillary, and radial nerves. Synonym: fasciculus posterior plexus brachialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior coronary plexus | The portion of the cardiac plexus that accompanies branches of the coronary arteries on the posteroinferior surface of the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fasciculus posterior plexus brachialis | In the brachial plexus, the bundle of nerve fibres formed by the posterior divisions of the upper, middle and lower trunks which lies posterior to the axillary artery; it gives rise to the upper and lower subscapular and thoracodorsal nerves, terminates by dividing into the axillary, and radial nerves. Synonym: fasciculus posterior plexus brachialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to the veins. Origin: L. Venosus (18 Nov 1997) |
| venous angioma | <radiology> Caput medusae, wedge-shaped appearance with its base at the meninges and its apex directed toward the ventricles, prominent medullary vein drains into a markedly enlarged transcortical cerebral vein, angiogram: normal arterial phase without AV shunting (12 Dec 1998) |
| venous angle | The junction of the internal jugular and subclavian veins, toward which converge the external and the anterior jugular and the vertebral veins, the thoracic duct in the left angle and the right lymphatic duct in the right angle. Synonym: Pirogoff's angle. In neuroradiology, the angle of union of the superior thalamostriate vein (vena terminalis) with the internal cerebral vein, usually closely behind the interventricular foramen of Monro. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous artery | Origin, right ventricle of heart; distribution, it divides into the right pulmonary artery and the left pulmonary artery, which enter the corresponding lungs and branch along with the segmental bronchi. Synonym: truncus pulmonalis, arteria pulmonalis, pulmonary artery, venous artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous blood | Blood which has passed through the capillaries of various tissues, except the lungs, and is found in the veins, the right chambers of the heart, and the pulmonary arteries; it is usually dark red as a result of a lower content of oxygen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous capillary | A capillary opening into a venule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| venous circle of mammary gland | areolar venous plexus |
| venous congestion | <physiology> Overfilling and distention of the veins with blood as a result of mechanical obstruction or right ventricular failure. (05 Mar 2000) |
