| tendon sheath of extensor digitorum and extensor indicis muscles | The synovial sheath that surrounds the four tendons of the extensor digitorum muscle and the tendon of the extensor indicis deep to the extensor retinaculum. Synonym: vagina tendinum musculorum extensoris digitorum et extensoris indicis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| tendon sheath of extensor digitorum longus muscle of foot | The synovial sheath that surrounds the tendons of the extensor digitorum longus muscle and the peroneus tertius in their passage across the ankle. Synonym: vagina tendinum musculi extensoris digitorum pedis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath of extensor hallucis longus muscle | <anatomy> The synovial sheath that surrounds the tendon of the extensor hallucis longus in its passage across the ankle. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi extensoris hallucis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath of extensor pollicis longus muscle | <anatomy> The synovial sheath surrounding the extensor pollicis longus tendon in its passage deep to the extensor retinaculum. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi extensoris pollicis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath of superior oblique muscle | <anatomy> The synovial sheath enclosing the tendon of the superior oblique muscle as it passes through the trochlea. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi obliqui superioris, synovial trochlear bursa, trochlear synovial bursa, vagina synovialis trochleae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath of tibialis anterior muscle | <anatomy> The synovial sheath, deep to the extensor retinaculum, that surrounds the tendon of the tibialis anterior as it crosses the ankle. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi tibialis anterioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath of tibialis posterior muscle | <anatomy> The synovial sheath surrounding the tendon of the tibialis posterior as it passes into the foot deep to the flexor retinaculum. Synonym: vagina tendinis musculi tibialis posterioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon sheath syndrome | <syndrome> Limited elevation of the eye in adduction, appearing clinically as a paresis of the inferior oblique muscle, due to fascia contracting the superior oblique muscle on the same side. Synonym: Brown's syndrome, Paterson-Brown-Kelly syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon suture | Suture of the divided ends of a tendon. Synonym: tendinosuture, tendon suture, tenosuture. Origin: teno-+ G. Rhaphe, suture (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon transfer | Surgical procedure by which a tendon is incised at its insertion and placed at an anatomical site distant from the original insertion. The tendon remains attached at the point of origin and takes over the function of a muscle inactivated by trauma or disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tendon transplantation | Insertion of a slip from the tendon of a sound muscle into the tendon of a paralysed muscle, replacement of a length of tendon by a free graft. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trefoil tendon | A three-lobed fibrous sheet occupying the centre of the diaphragm. Synonym: centrum tendineum diaphragmatis, trefoil tendon. Central tendon of perineum, the fibromuscular mass between the anal canal and the urogenital diaphragm in the median plane; midline episiotomies extend into this structure. Synonym: centrum tendineum perinei, perineal body, Savage's perineal body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Zinn's tendon | A fibrous ring that surrounds the optic canal and the medial part of the superior orbital fissure; it gives origin to the four rectus muscles of the eye and is partially fused with the sheath of the optic nerve. Synonym: annulus tendineus communis, Zinn's ligament, Zinn's ring, Zinn's tendon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accessory flexor muscle of foot | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, by two heads from the lateral and medial borders of the inferior surface of the calcaneus; insertion, tendons of flexor digitorum longus; action, assists long flexor; nerve supply, lateral plantar. Synonym: musculus flexor accessorius, musculus quadratus plantae, accessory flexor muscle of foot, caro quadrata sylvii, musculus pronator pedis, plantar quadrate muscle, quadrate muscle of sole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| antebrachial flexor retinaculum | Thickening of distal antebrachial fascia just proximal to radiocarpal (wrist) joint. Continuous with extensor retinaculum at margins of forearm. This structure is distinct from the transverse carpal ligament, commonly called "the flexor retinaculum," which forms the roof of the carpal tunnel. Synonym: flexor retinaculum of forearm, palmar carpal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
