| vascular capacitance | The relationship between the volume of blood contained within a segment of vasculature and the pressure distending the vascular walls over a wide range of pressures and volumes. The veins of the body are not only conduits for the return of blood to the right heart, but they also determine most of the vascular capacitance and contain most of the blood volume. Changes in vascular capacitance provide a quick and effective mechanism for the filling of the right heart, thereby influencing cardiac output. Vascular capacitance is somewhat analogous to vascular resistance but whereas vascular resistance relates to flow through a blood vessel, vascular capacitance relates to the volume contained in it.

| vascular cataract | Congenital cataract in which the degenerated lens is replaced with mesodermal tissue. Synonym: cataracta adiposa, cataracta fibrosa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 | Cytokine-induced cell adhesion molecule present on activated endothelial cells, tissue macrophages, dendritic cells, bone marrow fibroblasts, myoblasts, and myotubes. It is important for the recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vascular circle | The circle around the mouth formed by the inferior and superior labial arteries. Synonym: areolar venous plexus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular circle of optic nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A network of branches of the short ciliary arteries on the sclera around the point of entrance of the optic nerve. Synonym: circulus vasculosus nervi optici, circulus arteriosus halleri, circulus zinnii, Haller's circle, Zinn's corona, Zinn's vascular circle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular dementia | A state of diminished cognition that is the results from repeated cerebral strokes with a step-like deterioration in intellectual functions with focal neurological signs, as the result of multiple infarctions of the cerebral hemispheres. Synonym: multi-infarct dementia. (07 Mar 2000) |
| vascular dentin | Dentin in which the primitive capillaries have remained uncalcified and so are wide enough to give passage to the formed elements of the blood. Synonym: vascular dentin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular endothelial growth factor | A growth factor that is responsible for the growth of blood vessels. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vascular fistula | <surgery> An abnormal passage in a blood vessel, between two or more arteries, or between an artery and a vein. (12 Dec 1998) |
| vascular fold of the caecum | <anatomy> A peritoneal fold that arches over a branch of the ileocolic artery and bounds in front a narrow recess, the superior ileocaecal (or ileocolic) recess. Synonym: plica caecalis vascularis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular gland | <anatomy> A lymphoid structure in which the blood sinuses are present in place of lymph sinuses; haemal node's occur in ruminants and some other mammals, but their presence in humans is questioned. Synonym: haemal gland, haemolymph gland, haemolymph node, vascular gland. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular headache | <neurology> A group of headaches felt to involve abnormal sensitivity of the blood vessels (arteries) in the brain to various triggers which results in rapid changes in the artery size due to spasm (constriction). Other arteries in the brain and scalp then open (dilate), and throbbing pain is perceived in the head. Migraine headaches are the most common type of vascular headache. (07 Mar 2000) |
| vascular keratitis | Superficial cellular infiltration of the cornea and neovascularization between Bowman's membrane and the epithelium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vascular lacuna | <anatomy> The medial compartment beneath the inguinal ligament, for the passage to the femoral vessels; it is separated from the muscular lacuna by the iliopectineal arch. Synonym: lacuna vasorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
