| regiones corporis | The topographical divisions of the body. Synonym: regiones corporis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pediculosis corporis | The presence of body lice which live in the seams of clothing. Biting causes pruritus and excoriations. See: parasitic melanoderma. Synonym: pediculosis vestimenti, pediculosis vestimentorum, pthiriasis corporis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus corporis mamillaris | A fascicle of nerve fibres passing to the mamillary body along the ventral surface of the midbrain; it consists of fibres that originate from the dorsal and ventral tegmental nuclei. Synonym: pedunculus corporis mamillaris, fasciculus pedunculomamillaris, pedunculomamillary fasciculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crus corporis cavernosi penis | The posterior, tapering portion of the corpus cavernosum penis which diverges from its contralateral partner to be attached to the ischiopubic ramus. Synonym: crus penis, crus corporis cavernosi penis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| seborrhoea corporis | <dermatology> A form of inflammatory skin rash that results from an over activity of the sebaceous glands in the skin. Treatment often includes a mild hydrocortisone-containing cream. (27 Sep 1997) |
| pthiriasis corporis | The presence of body lice which live in the seams of clothing. Biting causes pruritus and excoriations. See: parasitic melanoderma. Synonym: pediculosis vestimenti, pediculosis vestimentorum, pthiriasis corporis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stratum pigmenti corporis ciliaris | The continuation of the pigment layer of the retina onto the posterior aspect of the ciliary body. Synonym: pigmented layer of ciliary body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nuclei corporis mamillaris | A single large-celled lateral nucleus and a larger bipartite medial nucleus together comprising the mamillary body; present in the caudal hypothalamus. Synonym: nuclei corporis mamillaris, nucleus of the mamillary body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus corporis geniculati medialis | The nerve cell groups composing the medial geniculate body (corpus geniculatum mediale). Synonym: nucleus corporis geniculati medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus dorsalis corporis trapezoidei | A circumscript, bipartite cell group located ventrolaterally in the lower pontine tegmentum, immediately dorsal to the trapezoid body; the nucleus receives fibres from both the ipsilateral and contralateral cochlear nuclei, and contributes fibres to the lateral (auditory) lemniscus of both sides. It is believed to be prominently involved in the function of spatial localization of sound. Synonym: nucleus dorsalis corporis trapezoidei, oliva superior, superior olivary nucleus, superior olive. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nucleus ventralis corporis trapezoidei | A cell group embedded among the fibres of the trapezoid body, the major decussation of the central auditory pathway, in the lower pons. The nucleus receives fibres from the contralateral cochlear nuclei and contributes fibres to the ascending auditory system or lateral lemniscus. Synonym: nucleus ventralis corporis trapezoidei.
