| stria ventriculi tertii | A narrow, compact fibre bundle that extends along the line of attachment of the roof of the third ventricle to the thalamus on each side and terminates posteriorly in the habenular nucleus. It is composed of fibres originating in the septal area, the anterior perforated substance, the lateral preoptic nucleus, and the medial segment of the globus pallidus. Synonym: stria medullaris thalami, stria fornicis, stria ventriculi tertii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| descensus ventriculi | Gastroptosia Downward displacement of the stomach. Synonym: bathygastry, descensus ventriculi, ventroptosis, ventroptosia. Origin: Gastro-+ G. Ptosis, a falling (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 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 | |
| fundus ventriculi | An alternate term for fundus of stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior condyloid foramen | The canal through which the hypoglossal nerve emerges from the skull. Synonym: canalis hypoglossalis, anterior condyloid canal of occipital bone, anterior condyloid foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior palatine foramen | An opening in the posterolateral corner of the hard palate opposite the last molar tooth, marking the lower end of the pterygopalatine canal. Synonym: foramen palatinum majus, anterior palatine foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortic foramen | The opening in the diaphragm bounded by the two crura, the vertebral column, and the median arcuate ligament, through which pass the aorta and thoracic duct. Synonym: hiatus aorticus, aortic foramen, aortic opening. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apical dental foramen | The opening at the apex of the root of a tooth that gives passage to the nerve and blood vessels. Synonym: foramen apicis dentis, apical dental foramen, root foramen. (05 Mar 2000) |
