| vertebral | <anatomy> Of or pertaining to a vertebra. Origin: L. Vertebralis (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| vertebral arch | The posterior projection from the body of a vertebra that encloses the vertebral foramen; it consists of paired pedicles and laminae; the spinous, transverse, and articular processes arise from the arch. In aggregate, the venous arches-and the ligamenta flava that unite them-form the posterior wall of the vertebral (spinal) canal. Synonym: arcus vertebrae, neural arch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral artery | <anatomy, artery> Paired arteries which supply the muscles of the neck, spinal cord and cerebellum. (27 Sep 1997) |
| vertebral border of scapula | The edge of the scapula closest to the vertebral column, extending from superior angle to inferior angle. Synonym: margo medialis scapulae, vertebral border of scapula. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral canal | The canal that contains the spinal cord, spinal meninges, and related structures. It is formed by the vertebral foramina of successive vertebrae of the articulated vertebral column. Synonym: canalis vertebralis, spinal canal, tubus vertebralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral column | The series of vertebrae that extend from the cranium to the coccyx, providing support and forming a flexible bony case for the spinal cord. Synonym: columna vertebralis, backbone, dorsal spine, rachis, spina dorsalis, spina, spina, spinal column, spine, vertebrarium. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral epidural space | Single-layered strong membrane, comparable to and continuous with (at foramen magnum) the meningeal layer of the intracranial dura mater of the brain. It does not (in contrast to the dura mater of brain) adhere to the enveloping bony structures (vertebrae) or their periosteum, being separated from the latter by a considerable space, the vertebral epidural space-a true space containing the internal vertebral venous plexus embedded in a matrix of epidural fat. Synonym: dura mater spinalis, endorrhachis, theca vertebralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral foramen | The foramen formed by the union of the vertebral arch with the body; in the articulated vertebral column, the vertebral foramen collectively form the vertebral column. Synonym: foramen vertebrale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral formula | A formula indicating the number of vertebrae in each segment of the spinal column; for man it is C. 7, T. 12, L. 5, S. 5, Co. 4 = 33, the letters standing for cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacral, and coccygeal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral fusion | A procedure that involves fusing together two or more vertebrae in the spine using either bone grafts or metal rods (Harrington rods). This procedure may be used to correct kyphosis or scoliosis. It is also used in those who require spine stabilisation due to vertebral damage from ruptures discs, fractures, osteomyelitis, osteoarthritis or tumour. (27 Sep 1997) |
| vertebral ganglion | A small ganglion located along the sympathetic trunk or one of the nerve cords connecting the middle cervical ganglion and the cervicothoracic ganglion; it usually lies near the vertebral artery. Synonym: ganglion vertebrale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral groove | The depression bounded by the spinous processes and laminae of the vertebrae, in which lie the deep muscles of the back. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral nerve | <anatomy, nerve> A branch from the stellate ganglion that ascends along the vertebral artery to the level of the axis or atlas, giving branches to the cervical nerves and meninges. Synonym: nervus vertebralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral notch | One of the two concavities above (superior) and below (inferior) the pedicle of a vertebra; the notches of two adjacent vertebrae (plus the intervertebral disc) form an intervertebral foramen. Synonym: incisura vertebralis, intervertebral notch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vertebral part of diaphragm | The portion of the diaphragm that arises from the upper lumbar vertebrae and from the medial and lateral arcuate ligaments. See: right crus of diaphragm, left crus of diaphragm, lateral arcuate ligament, medial arcuate ligament. Synonym: pars lumbalis diaphragmatis, vertebral part of diaphragm. (05 Mar 2000) |
