| uterine ostium of uterine tubes | The uterine opening of the oviduct. Synonym: ostium uterinum tubae, ostium internum, uterine opening of uterine tubes. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| anterior coronary plexus | The part of the cardiac plexus that accompanies the coronary arteries on the anterior aspect of the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atherectomy, coronary | Percutaneous transluminal procedure for removing atheromatous plaque from the coronary arteries. Both directional (for removing focal atheromas) and rotational (for removing concentric atheromatous plaque) atherectomy devices have been used. (12 Dec 1998) |
| valve of coronary sinus | A delicate fold of endocardium at the opening of the coronary sinus into the right atrium. Synonym: valvula sinus coronarii, coronary valve, thebesian valve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty | Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty of coronary artery or arteries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right coronary artery | <anatomy, artery> Origin, right aortic sinus; distribution, it passes around the right side of the heart in the coronary sulcus, giving branches to the right atrium and ventricle, including the atrioventricular branches and the posterior interventricular branch. Synonym: arteria coronaria dextra. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right coronary artery branches | <radiology> Conus branch, branch to S-A node, acute marginal branches, branches to posterior left ventricle, branch to A-V node, posterior descending artery (patent ductus arteriosus, 90%), hence, right coronary a. Is usually dominant (12 Dec 1998) |
| circumflex branch of left coronary artery | <anatomy, artery> Terminal branch (with anterior interventricular artery) of left coronary artery which runs to left and then posteriorly in the coronary groove supplying atrial and ventricular branches. Synonym: ramus circumflexus arteriae coronariae sinistrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coronary | <anatomy, cardiology> A term applied to vessels, nerves, ligaments, etc. The term usually denotes the arteries that supply the heart muscle and, by extension, a pathologic involvement of them. Origin: L. Corona, Gr. Koron = encircling in the manner of a crown (18 Nov 1997) |
| coronary aneurysm | Aneurysm of a coronary vessel. A coronary artery aneurysm is rarely congenital; it is usually due to atherosclerosis, inflammatory processes, or a coronary fistula. (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary angiography | Radiography of the vascular system of the heart muscle after injection of a contrast medium. (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary angioplasty | <cardiology, procedure> Percutaneous coronary angioplasty. This procedure involves the introduction of a thin flexible, hollow catheter into a artery in the groin. The catheter is advanced through the blood vessel to the heart. A special balloon tip on the catheter allows the physician to open a diseased (occluded) coronary artery by inflating the balloon and dilating the diseased vessel. (27 Sep 1997) |
| coronary arteries | The arteries that supply the heart with oxygenated blood. There are a number of vessels that are important with regard to coronary artery disease, but the right coronary artery, posterior descending, left main coronary artery, left anterior descending and left circumflex are probably the most frequently surgically grafted coronary vessels. (27 Sep 1997) |
| coronary arteriosclerosis | Atherosclerosis of the coronary arteries. (12 Dec 1998) |
| coronary arteritis | Inflammation of any or all of the layers of coronary artery walls. (05 Mar 2000) |
