| mandibular arch | The first postoral arch in the branchial arch series. Synonym: mandibular process. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| vertebral arch | The posterior projection from the body of a vertebra that encloses the vertebral foramen; it consists of paired pedicles and laminae; the spinous, transverse, and articular processes arise from the arch. In aggregate, the venous arches-and the ligamenta flava that unite them-form the posterior wall of the vertebral (spinal) canal. Synonym: arcus vertebrae, neural arch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gill arch skeleton | Cartilages associated with the visceral portion of the embryonic mammalian chondrocranium, representing the gill arch (branchial) skeletons as seen in shark-type fishes; they are the primordia of Meckel's cartilage, the styloid, hyoid, cricoid, thyroid, and arytenoid cartilages, and the auditory ossicles. See: branchial arches. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial longitudinal arch of foot | Formed by the calcaneus, talus, navicular, three cuneiform bones, and the three medial metatarsals. Synonym: arcus pedis longitudinalis pars medialis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial lumbocostal arch | <anatomy> One of Haller's arches; a tendinous thickening of the psoas fascia that extends from the body of the first lumbar vertebra to its transverse process on either side. A portion of the diaphragm arises from it. Synonym: ligamentum arcuatum mediale, arcus lumbocostalis medialis, medial lumbocostal arch. (05 Mar 2000) |
| glossopalatine arch | One of a pair of ridges or folds of mucous membrane passing from the soft palate to the side of the tongue; it encloses the palatoglossus muscle and forms anterior margin of the tonsillar fossa. Also demarcates oral cavity from isthmus of fauces. Synonym: arcus palatoglossus, anterior palatine arch, anterior pillar of fauces, arcus glossopalatinus, glossopalatine arch, glossopalatine fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial part of longitudinal arch of foot | medial part of longitudinal arch of foot |
| required arch length | The sum of the mesiodistal widths of the permanent teeth from first permanent molar to first permanent molar. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedicle of arch of vertebra | The constricted portion of the arch on either side extending from the body to the lamina; bound intervertebral foramina superiorly and inferiorly. Synonym: pediculus arcus vertebrae, radix arcus vertebrae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Gothic arch | A tracing of mandibular movements made by means of a device attached to the opposing arches; its shape resembles that of an arrowhead or a Gothic arch, and when the instrument's marking point is at the apex of the arch, the jaws are considered to be in centric relation. Synonym: arrow point tracing, Gothic arch tracing, Gothic arch, stylus tracing. (05 Mar 2000) |

| ribbon arch | A thin, ribbon-shaped, rectangular orthodontic arch wire applied to the dental arch's so that its widest dimension is parallel to the labial or buccal surfaces of the teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ribbon arch appliance | An appliance consisting of a rectangular wire inserted into a specially designed bracket attached to the labial and buccal surfaces of the teeth. (05 Mar 2000) |
| right aortic arch | <radiology> Types: mirror image branching (95% most likely to be congenital ht disease), 90% tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) (25%) ** decreased PBF, 2.5% truncus (30-50%) ** increased PBF, 1.5% transposition (TGV) (5%), aberrant left subclavian artery (5% most likely to be congenital heart disease) (12 Dec 1998) |
| groove for arch of aorta | A broad, deep sulcus arching superiorly over the hilus on the mediastinal surface of the left lung formed as a result of the aortic arch impressing or indenting the lung. (05 Mar 2000) |
