|---|---|---|---|
| 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. |

|---|---|---|---|
| 설명 | 편평세포 기원의 암으로서, 편평세포가 있는 어떤 곳에서든 발생가능함. 따라서 식도암, 피부암, 폐암, 자궁암 등이 여기에 해당된다. 특히 피부암은 많은 자외선조사에 의해 생기는 광선각화증에서 발생가능하다. 병리조직학적 특성으로서 각질을 생성한다. |

| hot thyroid nodule | <radiology> Almost always hyperfunctioning adenoma, vast majority benign, up to 50% are autonomous see also: thyroid carcinoma, cold thyroid nodule (12 Dec 1998) |
| pyramidal lobe of thyroid gland | <anatomy> An inconstant narrow lobe of the thyroid gland that arises from the upper border of the isthmus and extends upward, sometimes as far as the hyoid bone; it marks the point of continuity with the thyroglossal duct. Synonym: lobus pyramidalis glandulae thyroideae, Lallouette's pyramid, Morgagni's appendix, pyramid of thyroid. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: lobus pyramidalis glandulae thyroideae, Lallouette's pyramid, Morgagni's appendix, pyramid of thyroid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sheath of thyroid gland | Covering of the thyroid gland external to its capsule formed by a splitting of the pretracheal layer of deep cervical fascia at the gland's posterior border; the anterior lamina covers the gland anterolaterally, attaching to the arch of the cricoid cartilage superior to the isthmus of the gland (causing it to move with the trachea during elevation/depression of the larynx); the posterior lamina passes posterior to the oesophagus to blend with the buccopharyngeal fascia; inferiorly, the sheath extends along the inferior thyroid veins to open into the superior mediastinum (hence, expansion of the thyroid, as by goiter, can take this direction). (05 Mar 2000) |
| sternocleidomastoid branch of superior thyroid artery | <anatomy, artery> Branch of superior thyroid artery to sternocleidomastoid muscle. Synonym: ramus sternocleidomastoideus arteriae thyroideae superioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| stroma of thyroid gland | The connective tissue that supports the lobules and follicles of the thyroid gland. Synonym: stroma glandulae thyroideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior horn of thyroid cartilage | One of the pair of upward prolongations from the thyroid cartilage to which the lateral hyothyroid ligament attaches. Synonym: cornu superius cartilaginis thyroideae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, external carotid; branches, infrahyoid, superior laryngeal, sternocleidomastoid, cricothyroid, and two terminal branches. Synonym: arteria thyroidea superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid notch | A deep notch in the middle of the upper border of the thyroid cartilage. Synonym: incisura thyroidea superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid plexus | An autonomic plexus on the artery of the same name, derived from the external carotid plexus. Synonym: plexus thyroideus superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid tubercle | A blunt projection on the lamina of the thyroid cartilage on either side at the superior end of the oblique line. Synonym: tuberculum thyroideum superius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior thyroid vein | <anatomy, vein> Receives blood from the upper part of the thyroid gland and larynx, accompanies the artery of the same name, and empties into the internal jugular vein. Synonym: vena thyroidea superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| suspensory ligament of thyroid gland | One of several fibrous bands which pass from the sheath of the thyroid gland to the thyroid and cricoid cartilages. (05 Mar 2000) |
| discordant thyroid nodule | <radiology> Hot on Tc-99m pertechnetate, cold on I-123 or I-131, indicates trapping, but no organification, same work-up as cold nodule (12 Dec 1998) |
