| 영문 | renal biopsy | 한글 | 콩팥생검 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥의 병변이 의심될 때 확진을 위해 주사바늘 등을 이용하여 콩팥조직을 일부 떼어내서 현미경으로 검경하는 것. |

| 영문 | renal hypertension | 한글 | 콩팥성고혈압 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥실질의 병변으로 인해 야기된 고혈압. 콩팥의 대표적 기능은 노폐물 및 수분의 배설이다. 그런데 이러한 콩팥기능에 이상이 생겼을 경우 체내에 과잉수분의 축적이 발생하게 된다. 이와같은 과잉수분의 축적은 혈관내 정수압을 상승시켜 고혈압을 유발하게 된다. 치료는 원인 콩팥병의 교정이며 이유를 모르는 원발고혈압과 달리 콩팥성고혈압의 경우에는 원인 콩팥병이 교정되면 고혈압도 사라지게 된다. |

| 영문 | renal cell carcinoma | 한글 | 콩팥세포암종 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥에 생긴 원시콩팥조직에서 발생한 암. 주로 원시세뇨관조직에서 발생한다. 대표적인 세포조직형은 염색시 세포질이 맑게 비어보이는 맑은세포암종이다. 치료는 수술과 항암화학요법이며 아주 드물지만 저절로 낫는 경우도 있는 것으로 보고되어 있다. |

| 영문 | renal transplantation | 한글 | 콩팥이식 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 콩팥병을 가지고 있으나 치료가 불가능한 만성콩팥기능상실 등의 질병을 가진 환자의 신장을 떼어내고 환자와 항원성이 유사한 사람의 콩팥을 이식해주는 것. 이 때 서로간의 항원성의 유사점이 많아야 거부반응이 일어나지 않는다. 그리고 일단 콩팥이식을 받은 사람은 오랜기간 동안 면역억제제를 투여하여 거부반응을 줄여야 한다. 대개 이식된 콩팥은 엉덩뼈오목에 위치하게 된다. |

| medullary cystic disease | <disease> A rare hereditary kidney disease characterised by the gradual loss of kidney function due to the presence of cysts in the renal medulla. Symptoms include high urine output (cannot concentrate the urine), weakness, weight loss, nocturia, fatigue and headache. There is no cure and usually progresses from chronic renal failure to end stage renal disease. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| medullary cystic kidney disease | <radiology> Mode of inheritance uncertain, usually affects young adults (early 20s), associated with red or blond hair (!!), causes salt wasting, polyuria, azotaemia, affects both kidneys, with progressive disease patients need dialysis or transplant (12 Dec 1998) |
| medullary folds | Synonym: neural folds. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary groove | The gutter-like groove formed in the midline of the embryo's dorsal surface by the progressive elevation of the lateral margins of the neural plate; the ultimate dorsal fusion of the margins results in the formation of the neural tube. Synonym: medullary groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary laminae of thalamus | Layers of myelinated fibres that appear on transverse sections of the thalamus; the lamina medullaris externa marks the ventral and lateral borders of the thalamus and delimits it from the subthalamus and reticular nucleus of thalamus; the lamina medullaris interna is interposed between the mediodorsal and ventral nuclei of the thalamus and encloses the intralaminar nuclei (centromedian, paracentral, and central lateral nuclei). Synonym: laminae medullares thalami, medullary layers of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |

| medullary membrane | <anatomy> The layer of vascular connective tissue lining the medullary cavities of bone. Origin: NL, fr. Gr. + a bone. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| medullary nephrocalcinosis | <radiology> Primary hyperparathyroidism, renal tubular acidosis more than 70%, medullary sponge kidney, hypercalcaemia, hypercalcuria, sarcoidosis, bony metastases, Paget's disease, hypervitaminosis D, milk-alkali syndrome, Williams syndrome (in kids), idiopathic, oxalosis (with or without completely opaque kidneys; younger age) see also: renal calcification (12 Dec 1998) |
| medullary plate | <embryology> A region of embryonic ectodermal cells, called neuroectoderm, that lie directly above the notochord. During neurulation, they change shape, so as to produce an infolding of the neural plate (the neural fold) that then seals to form the neural tube. (04 Jul 1999) |
| medullary pyramid | One of a number of pyramidal masses seen on longitudinal section of the kidney; collectively, they constitute the renal medulla, and contain part of the secreting tubules and the collecting tubules. Synonym: pyramis renalis, malpighian pyramid, medullary pyramid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary ray | The centre of the renal lobule, which has the shape of a small, steep pyramid, consisting of straight tubular parts; these may be either ascending or descending limbs of the nephronic loop or collecting tubules. Synonym: pars radiata lobuli corticalis renis, Ferrein's pyramid, processus ferreini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary sarcoma | <tumour> A soft, extremely vascular sarcoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary sheath | <anatomy, neurology> An insulating layer surrounding vertebrate peripheral neurons, that dramatically increases the speed of conduction. It is formed by specialised Schwann cells, that can wrap around neurons up to 50 times. The exposed areas are called nodes of Ranvier: they contain very high densities of sodium channels and action potentials jump from one node to the next, without involving the intermediate axon, a process known as saltatory conduction. (18 Nov 1997) |
| medullary space | The central cavity and the cellular intervals between the trabeculae of bone, filled with marrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medullary spinal arteries | A large caliber spinal or radicular artery which courses centrally along a dorsal or ventral root, perhaps supplying it and the surrounding meninges in the fashion of any spinal/radicular artery, but which continues on to reach and anastomose with the anterior or posterior (longitudinal) spinal artery. Only 4-9 of the spinal arteries are medullary spinal arteries, found mainly in the lower cervical, lower thoracic and upper lumbar levels, the largest of which is the great radicular artery.
