| tetanus neonatorum | Tetanus occurring in newborn infants, usually due to infection of umbilical area with Clostridium tetani, often a result of ritualistic practices; has high fatality rate (about 60%). Synonym: neonatal tetanus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tetanus-perfringens antitoxin | An antitoxin prepared from animals immunised against the toxins of Clostridium tetani and C. Perfringens (C. Welchii). (05 Mar 2000) |

| tetanus shot | Immunisation for tetanus. Should be given every five years when indicated. (27 Sep 1997) |
| tetanus toxin | <protein> Neurotoxin released by Clostridium tetani, becomes active when peptide cleaved proteolytically to heavy (100 kD) and light (50 kD) chains held together by disulphide bond. Heavy chain binds to disialogangliosides (GD2 and GD1b) and part of the peptide (the amino terminal B fragment) forms a pore: light chain is a zinc endopeptidase that specifically attacks synaptobrevin, to block neurotransmitters. See: botulinum toxin (18 Nov 1997) |
| tetanus vaccine | See: diphtheria toxoid, tetanus toxoid, and pertussis vaccine. (05 Mar 2000) |
| toxic tetanus | Tonic spasms caused by strychnine or other tetanic. Synonym: toxic tetanus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| traumatic tetanus | Tetanus following infection of a wound. (05 Mar 2000) |
| uterine tetanus | Tetanus occurring during the puerperium from infection of the obstetric wound. Synonym: postpartum tetanus, uterine tetanus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| local tetanus | The most benign type of tetanus; the muscles in close proximity to an infected wound develop persistent involuntary contractions, often with transient, intense superimposed spasms triggered by various stimuli. The more distal upper extremity muscles are most often affected; gradual but complete recovery is typical. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Abadie's sign of tabes dorsalis | Insensibility to pressure over the tendo achillis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arcus venosus dorsalis pedis | The arch in the subcutaneous tissue of the dorsum of the foot formed by the dorsal and digital veins; it unites medially with the dorsal vein of the great toe to form the great saphenous vein, and laterally with the dorsal vein of the little toe to form the small saphenous. Synonym: arcus venosus dorsalis pedis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria digitalis dorsalis | <anatomy, artery> One of the collateral digital branches of the dorsal metatarsal arteries in the foot, and/or of the dorsal metacarpal arteries in the hand. Synonym: arteria digitalis dorsalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
