| sulcus collateralis | A long, deep sagittal fissure on the undersurface of the temporal lobe, marking the border between the fusiform gyrus laterally and the hippocampal and lingual gyri medially; the great depth of the collateral sulcus results in a bulging of the floor of the occipital and temporal horn of the lateral ventricle, the collateral eminence. Synonym: sulcus collateralis, sulcus occipitotemporalis, collateral fissure, fissura collateralis, occipitotemporal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| eminentia collateralis | A longitudinal elevation of the floor of the collateral trigone of the lateral ventricle of the brain, between the hippocampus and the calcar avis, caused by the proximity of the floor of the collateral fissure. Synonym: eminentia collateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fissura collateralis | A long, deep sagittal fissure on the undersurface of the temporal lobe, marking the border between the fusiform gyrus laterally and the hippocampal and lingual gyri medially; the great depth of the collateral sulcus results in a bulging of the floor of the occipital and temporal horn of the lateral ventricle, the collateral eminence. Synonym: sulcus collateralis, sulcus occipitotemporalis, collateral fissure, fissura collateralis, occipitotemporal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ansae nervorum spinalium | Loops of the spinal nerves, connecting ventral primary rami of the spinal nerves. Synonym: ansae nervorum spinalium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vasa nervorum | Blood vessels supplying the nerves. (12 Dec 1998) |
| rami communicantes nervorum spinalium | Short nerves arising from the initial portion of the ventral primary rami of the thoracic and upper lumbar spinal nerves through which all presynaptic sympathetic nerve fibres must pass to reach the sympathetic trunks; also conveyed by the white rami communicans are visceral afferent (sensory) fibres which were conveyed to the sympathetic trunks in splanchnic nerves. Most fibres conveyed by the white rami communicantes are myelinated. Synonym: rami communicantes nervorum spinalium, communicating branches of spinal nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami laterales ramorum dorsalium nervorum cervicalium/thoracalium/lumbalium/sac | Lateral branch of dorsal primary rami of spinal nerves. See: lateral branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami mammarii laterales rami cutanei lateralis nervorum thoracicorum | Branches arising from the lateral cutaneous branches of the ventral primary rami of spinal nerves (intercostal nerves) T-3 to T-6 which run anteriorly to supply the lateral aspect of the breast. Synonym: rami mammarii laterales rami cutanei lateralis nervorum thoracicorum, rami mammarii laterales rami cutanei lateralis nervorum intercostalium, lateral mammary branches of lateral cutaneous branches of intercostal nerves. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami mammarii mediales rami cutanei anterioris ramorum ventralium nervorum thoracicorum | Medial mammary branches of anterior cutaneous branches of ventral primary rami of thoracic spinal nerves. See: medial mammary branches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami posteriores nervorum spinalium | An alternate term for dorsal primary ramus of spinal nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rami ventrales nervorum cervicalium | See: ventral primary ramus of spinal nerve. Synonym: rami ventrales nervorum cervicalium. (05 Mar 2000) |
