| bicanalicular sphincter | A sphincter encircling two canals, such as the terminal portions of the common bile duct and the main pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| Boyden's sphincter | Smooth muscle sphincter of the common bile duct immediately proximal to the hepatopancreatic ampulla; it is this sphincter that controls the flow of bile in the duodenum. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus choledochi, Boyden's sphincter, choledochal sphincter, sphincter muscle of common bile duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalicular sphincter | A sphincter located somewhere along the course of an organ, a tube, or a duct, as opposed to ostial sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| macroscopic sphincter | A sphincter visible to the naked eye. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatopharyngeal sphincter | A constant band of the superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle which sweeps posteriorly from the anterolateral part of the superior surface of the palatine aponeurosis. It creates a visible ridge when the superior constrictor is contracted, meeting the elevated soft palate to seal off the pharyngeal isthmus during swallowing. Synonym: pharyngeal ridge, sphincter of the pharyngeal isthmus, velopharyngeal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| radiological sphincter | A section of a tubular structure that acts as if it has a band of circular muscle to constrict it, although no such specialised structure can be found on morphological examination. Synonym: functional sphincter, radiological sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Varolius' sphincter | A thickening of circular musculature at the free margin of the ileal papilla. Synonym: ileocaecocolic sphincter, marginal sphincter, operculum ilei, Varolius' sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pancreatic sphincter | Smooth muscle sphincter of the main pancreatic duct immediately proximal to the hepatoduodenal, ampulla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ductus pancreatici, pancreatic sphincter, sphincter muscle of pancreatic duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| velopharyngeal sphincter | A constant band of the superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle which sweeps posteriorly from the anterolateral part of the superior surface of the palatine aponeurosis. It creates a visible ridge when the superior constrictor is contracted, meeting the elevated soft palate to seal off the pharyngeal isthmus during swallowing. Synonym: pharyngeal ridge, sphincter of the pharyngeal isthmus, velopharyngeal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| marginal sphincter | A thickening of circular musculature at the free margin of the ileal papilla. Synonym: ileocaecocolic sphincter, marginal sphincter, operculum ilei, Varolius' sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rectosigmoid sphincter | <anatomy> A circular band of muscular fibres at the recto sigmoid junction. Synonym: O'Beirne's sphincter, O'Beirne's valve, pelvirectal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Glisson's sphincter | The smooth muscle sphincter of the hepatopancreatic ampulla within the duodenal papilla. Synonym: musculus sphincter ampullae hepatopancreaticae, Glisson's sphincter, hepatopancreatic sphincter, Oddi's sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pathologic sphincter | A thickening of circular musculature caused by disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mediocolic sphincter | A physiological sphincter located midway in the ascending colon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pelvirectal sphincter | <anatomy> A circular band of muscular fibres at the recto sigmoid junction. Synonym: O'Beirne's sphincter, O'Beirne's valve, pelvirectal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
