| Gerlach's annular tendon | fibrocartilaginous ring of tympanic membrane |
| patellar tendon | <anatomy> The tendon which connects the quadriceps muscle to the tibia, providing extension at the knee joint. (27 Sep 1997) |
| patellar tendon reflex | A sudden contraction of the anterior muscles of the thigh, caused by a smart tap on the patellar tendon while the leg hangs loosely at a right angle with the thigh. Synonym: knee jerk, knee phenomenon, knee reflex, knee-jerk reflex, patellar tendon reflex, quadriceps reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| central tendon of diaphragm | 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) |
| Golgi tendon organ | <cell biology, physiology> A proprioceptive sensory nerve ending embedded among the fibres of a tendon, often near the musculotendinous junction; it is compressed and activated by any increase of the tendon's tension, caused either by active contraction or passive stretch of the corresponding muscle. Synonym: neurotendinous organ, neurotendinous spindle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for tendon of flexor hallucis longus | Groove for tendon of the flexor hallucis longus; a vertical sulcus on the posterior process of the talus continuous with a similar groove on the underside of the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus. Synonym: sulcus tendinis musculi flexoris hallucis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for tendon of peroneus longus muscle | <anatomy> The groove below the peroneal trochlea of the calcaneus, the groove distal to the tuberosity of the cuboid bone. Synonym: sulcus tendinis musculi peronei longi, sulcus tendinis musculi fibularis longi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for tibialis posterior tendon | A broad groove on the posterior surface of the medial malleolus, through which the tendon of the tibialis posterior muscle runs. Synonym: sulcus malleolaris, malleolar sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjoined tendon | Common tendon of insertion of the transversus and obliquus internus muscles into the crest and spine of the pubis and iliopectineal line; it is frequently muscular rather than aponeurotic and may be poorly developed; forms posterior wall of medial inguinal canal. See: aponeurosis of internal abdominal oblique muscle. Synonym: falx inguinalis, tendo conjunctivus, conjoined tendon, falx aponeurotica, inguinal aponeurotic fold. Contracted tendon, a condition of young horses in which the flexor tendon's of the leg are shortened. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conjoint tendon | Common tendon of insertion of the transversus and obliquus internus muscles into the crest and spine of the pubis and iliopectineal line; it is frequently muscular rather than aponeurotic and may be poorly developed; forms posterior wall of medial inguinal canal. See: aponeurosis of internal abdominal oblique muscle. Synonym: falx inguinalis, tendo conjunctivus, conjoined tendon, falx aponeurotica, inguinal aponeurotic fold. Contracted tendon, a condition of young horses in which the flexor tendon's of the leg are shortened. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscle-tendon attachment | The union of a muscle and tendon fibre in which sarcolemma intervenes between the two; the end of the muscle fibre may be rounded, conical, or tapered. Synonym: muscle-tendon junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscle-tendon junction | The union of a muscle and tendon fibre in which sarcolemma intervenes between the two; the end of the muscle fibre may be rounded, conical, or tapered. Synonym: muscle-tendon junction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coronary tendon | One of four fibrous rings that surround atrioventricular and arterial orifices of the heart, providing attachment for the valve leaflets and maintaining patency of the orifice. As part of the fibrous skeleton of the heart, the fibrous rings also provide origin and insertion for the myocardium. Synonym: annulus fibrosus cordis, annulus fibrosus, coronary tendon, fibrous ring, Lower's ring. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cricoesophageal tendon | Longitudinal fibre of the oesophagus that attaches to the posterior aspect of the cricoid cartilage of the larynx. Synonym: tendo cricoesophageus, Gillette's suspensory ligament, suspensory ligament of oesophagus. (05 Mar 2000) |
