| minor duodenal papilla | The site of the opening of the accessory pancreatic duct into the duodenum, located anterior to and slightly superior to the major papilla. Synonym: papilla duodeni minor, Santorini's minor caruncle. Nerve papilla, one of the papillae in the dermis containing a tactile corpuscle or other form of end organ. Synonym: neurothele.

| hair papilla | Synonym: papilla pili. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dental papilla | Mesodermal tissue enclosed in the invaginated portion of the epithelial enamel organ and giving rise to the dentin and pulp. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dentinal papilla | Mesodermal tissue enclosed in the invaginated portion of the epithelial enamel organ and giving rise to the dentin and pulp. (12 Dec 1998) |
| incisive papilla | A slight elevation of the mucosa at the anterior extremity of the raphe of the palate. Synonym: papilla incisiva, palatine papilla. Interdental papilla, the gingiva that fills the interproximal space between two adjacent teeth. Synonym: gingival septum, interproximal papilla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| interproximal papilla | interdental papilla |
| optic papilla | The portion of the optic nerve seen in the fundus with the ophthalmoscope. It is formed by the meeting of all the retinal ganglion cell axons as they enter the optic nerve. Because the retina at the optic disk has no photoreceptors there is a corresponding blind spot in the visual field. (12 Dec 1998) |
| urethral papilla | Papilla urethralis, the slight projection often present in the vestibule of the vagina marking the urethral orifice. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lacrimal papilla | A slight projection from the margin of each eyelid near the medial commisure, in the centre of which is the lacrimal punctum (opening of the lacrimal duct). Synonym: papilla lacrimalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lingual papilla | One of numerous variously shaped projections of the mucous membrane of the dorsum of the tongue. Synonym: papilla lingualis. The lingual portion of the gingiva filling the interproximal space between adjacent teeth; in molar and premolar areas, there may be separate lingual and buccal interdental papillae. See: interdental papilla. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acute renal failure | <nephrology> A sudden decline in renal function may be triggered by a number of acute disease processes. Examples include sepsis (infection), shock, trauma, kidney stones, kidney infection, drug toxicity (aspirin or lithium), poisons or toxins (drug abuse) or after injection with an iodinated contrast dye (adverse effect). Chronic renal failure represents a slow decline in kidney function over time. Chronic renal failure may be caused by a number of disorders which include long-standing hypertension, diabetes, congestive heart failure, lupus or sickle cell anaemia. Both forms of renal failure result in a life-threatening metabolic derangement. (27 Sep 1997) |
| aminoaciduria, renal | Impairment of renal tubular transport of amino acids. (12 Dec 1998) |
| back-pressure renal atrophy | <radiology> Caliectasis without obstruction, due to repeated episodes of obstruction, gradual loss of renal pyramids (12 Dec 1998) |
| base of renal pyramid | The outer broad part of a renal pyramid that lies next to the cortex. Synonym: basis pyramidis renis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| branchio-oto-renal syndrome | <syndrome> An autosomal dominant disorder manifested by various combinations of preauricular pits, branchial fistulae or cysts, lacrimal duct stenosis, hearing loss, structural defects of the outer, middle, or inner ear, and renal dysplasia. Associated defects include asthenic habitus, long narrow facies, constricted palate, deep overbite, and myopia. Hearing loss may be due to mondini type cochlear defect and stapes fixation.
