| Gartner's duct | A rudimentary vestige of the mesonephric duct in the female into which the tubules of the epoophoron open; it is located in the broad ligament of the uterus, parallel with the lateral part of the uterine tube, and in the lateral walls of the cervix and vagina. Synonym: ductus epoophori longitudinalis, ductus deferens vestigialis, Gartner's canal, Gartner's duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gartner's duct cyst | <gynaecology> A closed sac on or under the vaginal mucosa that contains fluid or semi-solid material. These may occur secondary to trauma. Treatment may include surgical excision. (27 Sep 1997) |
| pancreatic duct | The excretory duct of the pancreas that extends through the gland from tail to head where it empties into the duodenum at the greater duodenal papilla. Synonym: ductus pancreaticus, Hoffmann's duct, Wirsung's canal, Wirsung's duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mammary duct ectasia | A noncancerous breast disease most often found in women during menopause. The ducts in or beneath the nipple become clogged with cellular and fatty debris. The duct may have gray to greenish discharge, a lump you can feel and can become inflamed, causing pain. (09 Oct 1997) |
| paramesonephric duct | Either of the two paired embryonic tubes extending along the mesonephros roughly parallel to the mesonephric duct and emptying into the cloaca; in the female, the upper parts of the ducts form the uterine tubes, while the lower fuse to form the uterus and part of the vagina; in the male, vestiges of the ducts form the vagina masculina and the appendix testis. Synonym: ductus paramesonephricus, Muller's duct, mullerian duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genital duct | The genital passages of the urogenital apparatus. Synonym: genital duct. (05 Mar 2000) |

| vestibular caecum of the cochlear duct | <anatomy> The lower extremity of the cochlear duct, occupying the cochlear recess in the vestibule. Synonym: caecum vestibulare, vestibular blind sac. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vestibular wall of cochlear duct | The membrane separating the cochlear duct from the vestibular canal; it consists of squamous epithelial cells with microvilli toward the ductus, a basement membrane, and a thin layer of connective tissue toward the scala. Synonym: membrana vestibularis, paries vestibularis ductus cochlearis, Reissner's membrane, vestibular wall of cochlear duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| vitelline duct | The narrow tube connecting the yolk sac with the midgut of the embryo; persistence of all or part of it in post-foetal life produces abnormalities, of which the commonest is meckel's diverticulum. (12 Dec 1998) |
| Pecquet's duct | <anatomy> The major efferent lymph duct into which lymph from most of the peripheral lymph nodes drains. Recirculating lymphocytes that have left the circulation in the lymph node return to the blood through the thoracic duct. (18 Nov 1997) |
