| sacculus alveolaris | Terminal dilation of the alveolar ducts that give rise to alveoli in the lung; a small air chamber in the pulmonary tissue from which the pulmonary alveoli project like bays and into which an alveolar duct opens; in birds, air-containing extensions of bronchi that connect with bone cavities.

| nervus alveolaris inferior | <anatomy, nerve> One of the terminal branches of the mandibular, it enters the mandibular canal to be distributed to the lower teeth, periosteum, and gingiva of the mandible; a branch, the mental nerve, passes through the mental foramen to supply the skin and mucosa of the lower lip and chin. Synonym: nervus alveolaris inferior, inferior dental nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ductulus alveolaris | The part of the respiratory passages distal to the respiratory bronchiole; from it arise alveolar sacs and alveoli, the smallest of the intralobular duct's in the mammary gland, into which the secretory alveoli open. Synonym: ductulus alveolaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus alveolaris | The free margin of the alveolar process of the mandible. Synonym: arcus alveolaris mandibulae, limbus alveolaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vagina processus styloidei | A crest of bone (edge of the tympanic portion of the temporal bone) running from the front and medial side of the mastoid process to the spine of the sphenoid; it splits to ensheath the base of the styloid process. Synonym: vagina processus styloidei, vaginal process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvula processus vermiformis | A fold of mucous membrane, simulating a valve, sometimes found at the origin of the vermiform appendix. Synonym: Gerlach's valve, valvula processus vermiformis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vestige of processus vaginalis | Incompletely obliterated remnants of the vaginal process of the peritoneum remaining in the spermatic cord. Synonym: vestigium processus vaginalis, vestige of vaginal process. (05 Mar 2000) |
