| arterio-arterial fistula | Abnormal communication between two arteries. It may result from injury or occur as a congenital abnormality. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| calcaneal arterial network | A superficial network over the calcaneus, formed by branches of the peroneal and posterior tibial arteries and twigs from the malleolar retia. Synonym: rete calcaneum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreaticoduodenal arterial arcades | Anastomoses between the anterior and posterior pancreaticoduodenal arteries (from the gastroduodenal artery) and the anterior and posterior inferior pancreaticoduodenal arteries (from the superior mesenteric artery) on the anterior and posterior aspects of the head of the pancreas and the duodenum, supplying both structures. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mean arterial pressure | <cardiology, physiology> The average value for arterial pressure. Systolic pressure + diastolic pressure divided by 2. (27 Sep 1997) |
| cephalic arterial rami | Parietal branches of the sympathetic trunks conveying postsynaptic sympathetic fibres from the superior cervical ganglion to the carotid arteries for distribution within the head. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cerebral arterial circle | The roughly pentagonally shaped circle of vessels on the ventral aspect of the brain in the area of the optic chiasm, hypothalamus, and interpeduncular fossa. See: circle of Willis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| greater arterial circle of iris | An arterial circle at the ciliary border of the iris. Synonym: circulus arteriosus iridis major. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plantar arterial arch | The arterial arch formed by the lateral plantar artery running across the bases of the metatarsal bones and anastomosing with the dorsal pedis artery, either of two bony arch's of the foot, longitudinal arch or transverse arch. See: medial longitudinal arch of foot, lateral longitudinal arch of foot, transverse arch of foot. Synonym: arcus plantaris, plantar arterial arch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posttraumatic arterial thrombosis | Posttraumatic venous thrombosis, intravascular clotting due to injury to a vessel wall. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hyaline degeneration of the elastic tissue of the arterial wall | Seen during involution of the uterus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superficial palmar (arterial) arch | The arterial arch in the hand located superficial to the long flexor tendons approximately at the level of a line extrapolated across the palm from the distal side of the outstretched thumb. It is formed principally by the termination of the superficial ulnar artery and is usually completed by a communication with the superficial palmar branch of the radial artery. The arch gives rise to the common palmar digital arteries. Synonym: arcus palmaris superficialis, arcus volaris superficialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| deep palmar (arterial) arch | The arterial arch located deep to the long flexor tendons in the hand. It is formed by the terminal part of the radial artery in conjunction with the deep palmar branch of the ulnar artery. The arch gives rise to palmar metacarpal and princeps pollicis arteries. Synonym: arcus palmaris profundus, arcus volaris profundus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diffuse arterial ectasia | Spontaneous enlargement with dilation of the vessels in a circumscribed area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| infusions, intra-arterial | Regional infusion of drugs via an arterial catheter. Often a pump is used to impel the drug through the catheter. Used in therapy of cancer, upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage, infection, and peripheral vascular disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| intermesenteric arterial anastomosis | The series of arterial arches formed in the mesentery by anastomoses between adjacent jejunal and ileal arteries and from which vasa recta arise. The arterial arcades of the ileum are shorter and more complex than those of the jejunum. See: arterial arches of ileum, arterial arches of jejunum. Synonym: intermesenteric arterial anastomosis, Riolan's arc, Riolan's arcades. (05 Mar 2000) |
