| eminentia parietalis | A prominent portion of the parietal bone, a little above the centre of its external surface, usually corresponding to the point of maximum width of the head. Synonym: tuber parietale, eminentia parietalis, parietal tuber. (05 Mar 2000) |

| facies externa ossis parietalis | The convex outer surface of the parietal bone. Synonym: facies externa ossis parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| facies interna ossis parietalis | The concave surface of the parietal bone forming part of the wall of the cranial cavity. Synonym: facies interna ossis parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fascia pelvis parietalis | Including the obturator fascia, covers the muscles that pass from the interior of the pelvis to the thigh. Synonym: fascia pelvis parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina parietalis | The outer layer of an enveloping sac or bursa, usually lining the walls of the cavity or space occupied by the enveloped structure, the structure itself being covered with the inner or visceral layer of the enveloping sac; an actual or potential space is enclosed by the two layers and intervenes between parietal and visceral layers. The parietal layer is usually the more substantial layer. Synonym: lamina parietalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina parietalis pericardii | The outer part of the serous pericardium suported by the fibrous pericardium. Synonym: lamina parietalis pericardii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina parietalis tunicae vaginalis testis | The outer part of the tunica vaginalis testis supported by the internal spermatic fascia. Synonym: lamina parietalis tunicae vaginalis testis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobulus parietalis inferior | The area of the parietal lobe of the cerebrum lying below the interparietal sulcus; it contains the angular and the supramarginal gyri. Synonym: lobulus parietalis inferior, inferior parietal gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobulus parietalis superior | The area of the convex surface of the parietal lobe of the cerebrum lying between the longitudinal fissure and the interparietal sulcus behind the posterior central gyrus; it is continuous with the precuneus on the medial aspect of the hemisphere. Synonym: lobulus parietalis superior, superior parietal gyrus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus parietalis cerebri | The middle portion of each cerebral hemisphere, separated from the frontal lobe by the central sulcus, from the temporal lobe by the lateral sulcus in front and an imaginary line projected posteriorly, and from the occipital lobe only partially by the parieto-occipital sulcus on its medial aspect. Synonym: lobus parietalis cerebri, parietal lobe. (05 Mar 2000) |
