| tegmen ventriculi quarti | Roof of fourth ventricle, formed in its upper part by the superior medullary velum stretching between the two brachia conjunctiva (superior cerebellar peduncles), in its lower part by the inferior medullary velum composed of the choroid membrane and choroid plexus of the fourth ventricle. Synonym: roof of fourth ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| tela choroidea ventriculi quarti | The sheet of pia mater covering the lower part of the ependymal roof of the fourth ventricle. Synonym: tela choroidea ventriculi quarti, tela choroidea inferior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tela choroidea ventriculi tertii | A double fold of pia mater, enclosing subarachnoid trabeculae, between the fornix above and the epithelial roof of the third ventricle and the thalami below; at each lateral margin is a vascular fringe projecting into the choroidal fissure of the lateral ventricle; on its undersurface are several small vascular projections filling the folds of the ependymal roof of the third ventricle. Synonym: tela choroidea ventriculi tertii, tela choroidea superior, triangular lamella, velum interpositum, velum triangulare. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tenia ventriculi quarti | The line of attachment of the choroid roof to the rim of the fourth ventricle. Synonym: tenia of fourth ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tenia ventriculi tertii | The sharp edge or angle between the superior and medial surface of the thalamus on either side; to it is attached the epithelial lamina forming the roof of the third ventricle. Synonym: tenia ventriculi tertii, thalamic tenia. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ectasia ventriculi paradoxa | A condition in which there is a central constriction of the wall of the stomach dividing it into two cavities, cardiac and pyloric. Synonym: bilocular stomach, ectasia ventriculi paradoxa. Leather-bottle stomach, marked thickening and rigidity of the stomach wall, with reduced capacity of the lumen although often without obstruction; nearly always due to scirrhous carcinoma, as in linitis plastica. Synonym: sclerotic stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trigonum ventriculi | A triangular prominence of the floor of the lateral ventricle at the transition between occipital and temporal horn, continuous rostrally with the collateral eminence and, like the latter, caused by the deep penetration of the collateral sulcus from the ventral surface of the temporal lobe. Synonym: trigonum collaterale, trigone of lateral ventricle, trigonum ventriculi, ventricular trigone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tunica muscularis ventriculi | <anatomy> An alternate term for muscular coat of stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tunica serosa ventriculi | <anatomy> An alternate term for serosa of stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| filtrum ventriculi | |
| foramen lateralis ventriculi quarti | One of the two lateral openings of the fourth ventricle into the subarachnoid space at the cerebellopontine angle. Synonym: apertura lateralis ventriculi quarti, foramen lateralis ventriculi quarti, foramen of Key-Retzius, foramen of Luschka, Retzius' foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fundus ventriculi | An alternate term for fundus of stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| agenesis of corpus callosum | <radiology> Defect in dorsal portion of lamina reuniens, occurs about 10th - 12th week of gestation, may be complete or partial CT findings: parallel lateral ventricles, occipital horns dilated, deep falx, frontal horns C-shaped on coronal view associated with, Dandy-Walker cyst, encephalocele, Arnold-Chiari malformation, CNS lipoma (12 Dec 1998) |
| atretic corpus luteum | A retrogressed corpus luteum characterised by increasing cicatrization and shrinkage of the cicatricial core with an amorphous, convoluted, completely hyalinised lutein zone surrounding the central plug of scar tissue. Synonym: albicans, atretic corpus luteum, corpus candicans. Corpora allata, a pair of juvenile hormone-producing endocrine glands located near the brain in insects; action of the juvenile hormone is interrelated with that of brain hormone and ecdysone; a high concentration of the hormone at the time of molting will cause production of an additional larval instar; removal at an early larval stage causes precocious pupation, resulting in the formation of a midget adult; implantation at late larval stages can cause development of an oversized adult. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bulb of corpus spongiosum | The expanded posterior part of the corpus spongiosum of the penis lying in the interval between the crura of the penis. Synonym: bulbus penis, bulb of corpus spongiosum, bulb of urethra, bulbus urethrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
