| terminal crest | A vertical crest on the interior wall of the right atrium that lies to the right of the sinus of the vena cava and separates this from the remainder of the right atrium. Synonym: tenia terminalis, terminal crest. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal deletion | Deletion involving the terminal part of a chromosome and leading to a adhesive terminus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase | <enzyme> A non-template-directed DNA polymerase normally found in vertebrate thymus and bone marrow. It catalyses the elongation of oligo- or polydeoxynucleotide chains and is widely used as a tool in the differential diagnosis of acute leukaemias in man. Chemical name: Nucleoside-triphosphate:DNA deoxynucleotidylexotransferase Registry number: EC 2.7.7.31 (12 Dec 1998) |
| terminal disinfection | Application of disinfective measures after the patient has been removed, e.g., by death, or has ceased to be a source of infection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal endocarditis | Verrucous endocardial lesions occurring in the terminal stages of many chronic infectious and wasting diseases. Synonym: abacterial thrombotic endocarditis, cachectic endocarditis, terminal endocarditis, thromboendocarditis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal filum | A long, slender connective tissue (pia mater) strand extending from the extremity of the medullary cone to the internal aspect of the spinal dural sac (filum terminale internum); stout strands of connective tissue attaching the spinal dural sac to the coccyx (filum terminale externum), commonly called the coccygeal ligament. Synonym: filum terminale, nervus impar, terminal thread. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal ganglion | One of the cells located along the terminal nerves, one of the scattered postganglionic autonomic neurons located in or close to the wall of the organ innervated; they are usually parasympathetic. Synonym: ganglion terminale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal haematuria | The presence of blood only in the last fraction of voided urine, usually indicating a prostatic source of bleeding. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal hair | A mature pigmented, coarse hair. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal hinge position | The mandibular hinge position from which further opening of the mandible would produce translatory rather than hinge movement. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal ileitis | Crohn's disease, a chronic inflammatory disease of the intestine involving only the end of the small intestine (the terminal ileum). Crohn's disease affects primarilythe small and large intestines but which can occur anywhere in the digestive system between the mouth and the anus. Named after burrill crohn who described the disease in 1932. The disease often strikes persons in their teens or early twenties. It tends to be chronic, recurrent with periods of remission and exacerbation. In the early stages, it causes small scattered shallow crater-like areas (erosions) called apthous ulcers in the inner surface of the bowel. With time, deeper and larger ulcers develop, causing scarring and stiffness of the bowel and the bowel becomes increasingly narrowed, leading to obstruction. Deep ulcers can puncture holes in the bowel wall, leading to infection in the abdominal cavity (peritonitis) and in adjacent organs abdominal pain, diarrhoea, vomiting, fever, and weight loss can be symptoms. Crohn's disease can be associated with reddish tender skin nodules, and inflammation of the joints, spine, eyes, and liver. Diagnosis is by barium enema, barium X-ray of the small bowel, and colonoscopy. Treatment includes medications for inflammation, immune suppression, antibiotics, or surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| terminal ileus | Obstruction of the lower part of the small bowel. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal infection | An acute infection, commonly pneumonic or septic, occurring toward the end of any disease and often the cause of death. Synonym: agonal infection. (05 Mar 2000) |
| terminal jaw relation record | A record of the relationship of the mandible to the maxillae made at the vertical relation of occlusion and at the centric position. (05 Mar 2000) |
