| decussation of superior cerebellar peduncles | The decussation of the left and right superior cerebellar peduncles in the tegmentum of the caudal mesencephalon. Synonym: decussatio pedunculorum cerebellarium superiorum, decussatio brachii conjunctivi, decussation of brachia conjunctiva, Wernekinck's decussation. (05 Mar 2000) |

| dentatorubral cerebellar atrophy with polymyoclonus | A familial disorder beginning in late childhood, characterised by progressive cerebellar ataxia, action myoclonus and preserved intellect. Probably due to multiple causes, mitochondrial abnormalities being one. Synonym: dentatorubral cerebellar atrophy with polymyoclonus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior cerebellar peduncle | Large paired bundles of nerve fibres which develop on the dorsolateral surfaces of the upper medulla, extend under the lateral recesses of the rhomboid fossa and curve dorsally into the cerebellum medial to the middle cerebellar peduncle; composed of a larger (lateral) bundle, the restiform body, and a small (medial) bundle, the juxtarestiform body. Fibres forming this composite bundle originate from spinal neurons and medullary relay nuclei. The largest constituent (restiform body) is crossed fibres from the inferior olive; it also contains the dorsal spinocerebellar tract and cerebellar projections from the lateral reticular nucleus, the accessory cuneate nucleus, the paramedian reticular nuclei and the perihypoglossal nuclei. Vestibulocerebellar fibres are placed medially in the inferior cerebellar peduncle and are usually separately identified as the juxtarestiform body. Synonym: pedunculus cerebellaris inferior.

| inferior surface of cerebellar hemisphere | It rests in the posterior cranial fossa and overlies the medulla; it includes the semilunaris inferior, biventer lobule, cerebellar tonsil, and flocculus. Synonym: facies inferior hemispherii cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior veins of cerebellar hemisphere | Several veins draining the inferior portion of the cerebellar hemispheres; they terminate in the petrosal vein. Synonym: venae hemispherii cerebelli inferiores. (05 Mar 2000) |
| juvenile cerebellar astrocytoma | <oncology, tumour> This primary brain tumour of the cerebellum accounts for 10 to 30% of brain tumours in children. The are usually slow growing and benign. Symptoms include gait problems, clumsiness, headache and vomiting. Treatment often involves a combination of surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. (27 Sep 1997) |
| adrenal cortex | <anatomy, endocrinology> This is the outer portion of the fattyacids and inhibit inflammation in allergic responses. Mineralocortoids regulate the levels of minerals such as sodium and potassium in the blood. (06 May 1997) |
| adrenal cortex injection | An obsolete treatment involving the parenteral administration of extract of the adrenal cortex; formerly used in treatment of Addison's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |

| amorphous fraction of adrenal cortex | Noncrystalline residue of an acetone extract of the adrenal cortex after crystalline steroids, e.g., corticosterone, deoxycorticosterone, etc., have been isolated. (05 Mar 2000) |
| association cortex | Generic term denoting the large expanses of the cerebral cortex that are not sensory or motor in the customary sense, but are involved in advanced stages of sensory information processing, multisensory integration, or sensorimotor integration. See: cerebral cortex. Synonym: association areas. (05 Mar 2000) |
