| basal rod | <microbiology> Rod shaped intracellular organelle lying below the undulating membrane of Trichomonas. Generates active bending associated with local loss of birefringence at the bending zone, probably as a result of conformational change in the longitudinal lamellae. Major protein approximately 90 kD. (10 Nov 1998) |
| basal seat | That portion of the basal seat which supports the complete or partial denture base under occlusal load. Synonym: basal seat, denture-bearing area, denture-supporting area, stress-bearing area, supporting area, tissue-bearing area. (05 Mar 2000) |

| basal skull fracture | <orthopaedics> A fracture involving the base of the cranium. This fracture is often difficult to detect clinically. Findings may include raccoon eyes, Battle's sign, haemotympanum and cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhoea.

| basal squamous cell carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma of the skin which in structure and behaviour is considered transitional between basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma The term should not be used for the much more common keratotic variety of basal cell carcinoma, in which the tumour cells are of basal type but which contains small foci of abrupt keratinization. Synonym: basal squamous cell carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal striations | The vertical infranuclear striation's due to the infolded plasma membrane and mitochondria; they are seen in kidney tubules and certain intralobular salivary ducts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal surface | The surface of the denture of which the detail is determined by the impression and which rests upon the basal seat. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal tentorial branch of internal carotid artery | <anatomy, artery> A small branch from the cavernous part of the internal carotid artery to the base of the tentorium. Synonym: ramus basalis tentorii arteriae carotidis internae. (05 Mar 2000) |

| basal vein of Rosenthal | A large vein passing caudally and dorsally along the medial surface of the temporal lobe from which it receives tributaries; it empties into the great cerebral vein (of Galen) from the lateral side. Synonym: vena basalis, Rosenthal's vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal veins | See: basal vein of Rosenthal, common basal vein, inferior basal vein, superior basal vein. (05 Mar 2000) |
