| common plantar digital artery | <anatomy, artery> One of four arteries arising from a superficial plantar arch, when present as a variation. They unite with the plantar metatarsal arteries. Synonym: arteria digitalis plantaris communis. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| common plantar digital nerves | Three nerves derived from the medial plantar and one from the lateral plantar that supply the skin overlying the metatarsals and terminate as proper plantar digital nerves to the side of each toe. Synonym: nervi digitales plantares communes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plantar digital veins | Drain the plantar and distal dorsal aspects (nail beds) of the toes and pass back to form four metatarsal veins that in turn empty into the plantar venous arch. Synonym: venae digitales plantares. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cruciform part of fibrous digital sheath | The fibres of the fibrous sheath of the fingers and toes which form X-shaped patterns over the region of the interphalangeal joints. Synonym: pars cruciformis vaginae fibrosae, crucial ligament, cruciform part of fibrous sheath, cruciform pulley, ligamenta cruciata digitorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proper palmar digital artery | <anatomy, artery> Terminal branches of the common palmar digital artery that pass to the side of each finger. Synonym: arteria digitalis palmaris propria, collateral digital artery, digital collateral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proper palmar digital nerves | The palmar nerves of the digits of the hand derived from common palmar digital nerves; each nerve supplies a palmar quadrant of a digit and a part of the dorsal surface of the distal phalanx. Synonym: nervi digitales palmares proprii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proper plantar digital artery | <anatomy, artery> One of the digital branches of the plantar metatarsal arteries. Synonym: arteria digitalis plantaris propria. (05 Mar 2000) |
| proper plantar digital nerves | The ten nerves derived from the common plantar digital nerves; each nerve supplies a plantar quadrant of a toe and part of the dorsal surface of the distal phalanx. Synonym: nervi digitales plantares proprii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital | Relating to or resembling a digit or digits or an impression made by them; based on numerical methodology. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital collateral artery | <anatomy, artery> Terminal branches of the common palmar digital artery that pass to the side of each finger. Synonym: arteria digitalis palmaris propria, collateral digital artery, digital collateral artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital crease | One of the grooves on the palmar surface of a finger, at the level of an interphalangeal joint. Synonym: digital flexion crease, digital furrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital dilatation | Use of the finger or finger-tip to enlarge an orifice or opening, such as enlarging the orifice of a sclerosed mitral valve surgically. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital flexion crease | One of the grooves on the palmar surface of a finger, at the level of an interphalangeal joint. Synonym: digital flexion crease, digital furrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital fossa | A depression at the root of the neck of the femur beneath the curved tip of the great trochanter; it gives attachment to the tendon of the obturator externus. Synonym: fossa trochanterica, digital fossa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| digital furrow | One of the grooves on the palmar surface of a finger, at the level of an interphalangeal joint. Synonym: digital flexion crease, digital furrow. (05 Mar 2000) |
