| Cotunnius' aqueduct | aqueduct of vestibule |
| sylvian aqueduct | Aqueduct of vestibule, a bony canal running from the vestibule and opening on the posterior surface of the petrous portion of the temporal bone, giving passage to the endolymphatic duct and a small vein.

| accessory hemiazygos vein | <anatomy, vein> Formed by the union of the fourth to seventh left posterior intercostal veins, passes along the side of the bodies of the fifth, sixth, and seventh thoracic vertebrae, then crosses the midline behind the aorta, oesophagus, and thoracic duct, and empties into the azygos vein, sometimes in common with the hemiazygos vein. Synonym: vena hemiazygos accessoria, vena azygos minor superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accessory saphenous vein | <anatomy, vein> An occasional vein running in the thigh parallel to the great saphenous vein which it joins just before the latter empties into the femoral vein. Synonym: vena saphena accessoria. (05 Mar 2000) |
