| corpus dentatum | The most lateral and largest of the cerebellar nuclei; it receives the axons of the Purkinje cells of the neocerebellum (lateral areas of cerebellar cortex); together with the more medially located globosus and emboliform nuclei it is the major source of fibres composing the massive superior cerebellar peduncle or brachium conjunctivum. Synonym: nucleus dentatus cerebelli, corpus dentatum, dentatum. (05 Mar 2000) |

| corpus epididymidis | The middle part that extends downward from the head to the tail of the epididymis on the posterior surface of the testis. Synonym: corpus epididymidis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus epididymis | Body of epididymis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus femoris | The cylindrical shaft of the thigh bone. Synonym: corpus ossis femoris, body of thigh bone, corpus femoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus fibrosum | The small fibrous cicatricial mass in the ovary formed following the atresia of an ovarian follicle; similar to a corpus albicans but smaller. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus fibulae | The body of fibula; of the fibula elongated, rod-like portion which accounts for most of its length. Synonym: corpus fibulae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus fimbriatum | A narrow sharp-edged crest of white fibre matter, continuous with the alveus hippocampi, attached to the medial border of the hippocampus; composed of efferent fibres of the hippocampus that form the fornix, fibres of the hippocampal commissure, and septohippocampal fibres. Synonym: corpus fimbriatum, tenia hippocampi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus fornicis | The middle part of the fornix situated ventral to the corpus callosum. Synonym: corpus fornicis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus gastricum | The part of the stomach that lies between the fundus above and the pyloric antrum below; its boundaries are poorly defined. Synonym: corpus gastricum [ventriculi]. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus geniculatum externum | The lateral one of a pair of small oval masses that protrude slightly from the posteroinferior aspects of the thalamus; its main (dorsal) subdivision serves as a processing station in the major pathway from the retina to the cerebral cortex, receiving fibres from the optic tract and giving rise to the geniculocalcarine radiation to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe. Synonym: corpus geniculatum laterale, corpus geniculatum externum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus geniculatum internum | The medial one of a pair of prominent cell groups in the posteroinferior parts of the thalamus; it functions as the last of a series of processing stations along the auditory conduction pathway to the cerebral cortex, receiving the brachium of the inferior colliculus and giving rise to the auditory radiation to the auditory cortex in the superior temporal gyrus. Synonym: corpus geniculatum mediale, corpus geniculatum internum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus geniculatum laterale | The lateral one of a pair of small oval masses that protrude slightly from the posteroinferior aspects of the thalamus; its main (dorsal) subdivision serves as a processing station in the major pathway from the retina to the cerebral cortex, receiving fibres from the optic tract and giving rise to the geniculocalcarine radiation to the visual cortex in the occipital lobe. Synonym: corpus geniculatum laterale, corpus geniculatum externum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus geniculatum mediale | The medial one of a pair of prominent cell groups in the posteroinferior parts of the thalamus; it functions as the last of a series of processing stations along the auditory conduction pathway to the cerebral cortex, receiving the brachium of the inferior colliculus and giving rise to the auditory radiation to the auditory cortex in the superior temporal gyrus. Synonym: corpus geniculatum mediale, corpus geniculatum internum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus glandulae sudoriferae | The coiled tubular secretory portion of a sweat gland located in the subcutaneous tissue or deep in the corium and connected to the surface of the skin by a long duct. Synonym: corpus glandulae sudoriferae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| corpus haemorrhagicum | A haematoma with a lining formed by the thinned-out bright yellow lutein zone; gradual resorption of the blood elements leaves a cavity filled with a clear fluid, i.e., a corpus luteum cyst. Synonym: corpus luteum haematoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
