| sacral tuberosity | A rough prominence on the lateral surface of the sacrum posterior to the auricular surface for attachment of posterior sacroiliac ligaments. Synonym: tuberositas sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sacral veins | See: lateral sacral veins, median sacral vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sacral venous plexus | A venous plexus on the pelvic surface of the sacrum, formed by tributaries to the lateral sacral veins. Synonym: plexus venosus sacralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sacral vertebrae | The segments of the vertebral column, usually five in number, that fuse to form the sacrum. Synonym: vertebrae sacrales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral sacral artery | <anatomy, artery> Usually one of two arteries which arise from the internal iliac artery or its branches; they supply muscles and skin in the neighborhood and send branches into the sacral canal, supplying radicular and spinal arteries, and continuing on to the skin and subcutaneous tissues overlying the sacrum. Synonym: arteria sacralis lateralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral sacral veins | Several veins that receive the drainage of the sacral venous plexus and sacral intervertebral veins then accompany the corresponding artery and empty into the internal iliac vein on each side. Synonym: venae sacrales laterales. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior intermediate groove | A furrow occasionally seen in the adult between the anterior median fissure and the anterior lateral sulcus of the spinal cord but usually present only in the foetus. It indicates the lateral border of the anterior corticospinal fasciculus. Synonym: anterior intermediate groove, sulcus intermedius anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior intermediate sulcus | A furrow occasionally seen in the adult between the anterior median fissure and the anterior lateral sulcus of the spinal cord but usually present only in the foetus. It indicates the lateral border of the anterior corticospinal fasciculus. Synonym: anterior intermediate groove, sulcus intermedius anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ganglion of intermediate nerve | The sensory ganglion of the facial (7th cranial) nerve. The geniculate ganglion cells send central processes to the brainstem and peripheral processes to the taste buds in the anterior tongue, the soft palate, and the skin of the external auditory meatus and the mastoid process. (12 Dec 1998) |
| reaction intermediate | <biochemistry> Any biomolecule which iscreated and destroyed during the course of of a particular reaction pathway. (09 Oct 1997) |
| ventral intermediate nucleus of thalamus | The composite middle third of the ventral nucleus receiving in its various parts distinctive projections from the contralateral half of the cerebellum (by way of the superior cerebellar peduncle) and the ipsilateral globus pallidus; nearly all parts of the nucleus projects to the motor cortex. Synonym: nucleus ventralis intermedius thalami, nucleus ventralis lateralis, ventral lateral nucleus of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ventral posterior intermediate nucleus of thalamus | Intermediate part of the ventrobasal nuclear complex. See: ventral posterior nucleus of thalamus. Synonym: ventral posterior intermediate nucleus of thalamus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| replicative intermediate | <molecular biology, virology> Intermediate stage in the replication of a RNA virus, a copy of the original RNA strand or of a single strand copy of the first replicative intermediate. Essentially an amplification strategy. (18 Nov 1997) |
| central and lateral intermediate substance | The central gray matter of the spinal cord surrounding the central canal. Synonym: substantia intermedia centralis et lateralis, anterior gray column, Stilling's gelatinous substance, substantia gelatinosa centralis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mitochondrial intermediate peptidase | <enzyme> Removes the octapeptide from the amino terminus of the intermediate protein processed from the protein precursor of certain mitochondrial proteins by the mitochondrial processing peptidase; smip from schizophyllum commune; rmip from rat; ymip from saccharomyces cerevisiae Registry number: EC 3.4.24.59 Synonym: mip peptidase, smip peptidase, rmip peptidase, ymip peptidase (26 Jun 1999) |
