| canaliculus reuniens | A short membranous tube passing from the lower end of the saccule to the cochlear duct of the membranous labyrinth. Synonym: ductus reuniens, canaliculus reuniens, canalis reuniens, Hensen's canal, Hensen's duct, uniting canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| canaliculus tympanicus | A minute canal passing from the inferior surface of the petrous portion of the temporal bone between the jugular fossa and carotid canal to the floor of the tympanic cavity. Located in the wedge of bone separating the jugular canal and carotid canal, it transmits the tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Synonym: canaliculus tympanicus, Jacobson's canal, tympanic canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vein of cochlear canaliculus | It drains the cochlea, sacculus, and part of the utricules, and empties into the superior bulb of the jugular vein by accompanying the perilymphatic duct through the cochlear canaliculus. Synonym: vena aqueductus cochleae, vein of cochlear aqueduct, vena canaliculi cochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mastoid canaliculus | The canal that extends from the jugular fossa laterally through the mastoid process. It transmits the auricular branch of the vagus. Synonym: canaliculus mastoideus, auricular canaliculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cochlear canaliculus | A minute canal in the temporal bone that passes from the cochlea inferiorly to open in front of the medial side of the jugular fossa. It contains the perilymphatic duct. Synonym: canaliculus cochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| secretory canaliculus | See: intercellular canaliculus, intracellular canaliculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intercellular canaliculus | One of the fine channels between adjoining secretory cells, such as those between serous cells in salivary glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| intracellular canaliculus | <cell biology> A fine canal formed by invagination of the cell membrane into the cytoplasm of a cell, such as those of the parietal cells of the stomach. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tympanic canaliculus | A minute canal passing from the inferior surface of the petrous portion of the temporal bone between the jugular fossa and carotid canal to the floor of the tympanic cavity. Located in the wedge of bone separating the jugular canal and carotid canal, it transmits the tympanic branch of the glossopharyngeal nerve. Synonym: canaliculus tympanicus, Jacobson's canal, tympanic canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| external aperture of cochlear canaliculus | The external opening of the cochlear aqueduct on the temporal bone medial to the jugular fossa. Synonym: apertura externa canaliculi cochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lacrimal canaliculus | A curved canal beginning at the lacrimal punctum in the margin of each eyelid near the medial commissure and running transversely medially to empty with its fellow into the lacrimal sac. Synonym: canaliculus lacrimalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| annulus fibrocartilagineus membranae tympani | fibrocartilaginous ring of tympanic membrane |
| apertura tympanica canaliculi chordae tympani | The small canal opening found lateral to the pyramidal eminence in the posterior wall of the middle ear cavity from which the chorda tympani nerve emerges to pass anteriorly between the ossicles accompanied by a branch of the stylomastoid artery. Synonym: apertura tympanica canaliculi chordae tympani. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ramus membranae tympani nervi auriculotemporalis | Sensory branch of the auriculotemporal nerve supplying the external surface of the tympanic membrane. Synonym: ramus membranae tympani nervi auriculotemporalis, nerve of tympanic membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| recessus membranae tympani anterior | A slitlike space on the tympanic wall between the anterior malleolar fold and the tympanic membrane. Synonym: recessus membranae tympani anterior, Troltsch's pockets, Troltsch's recesses. (05 Mar 2000) |
