| SPONASTRIME | spondylar and nasal alterations with striated metaphyses |
|---|---|
| NSD | Nasal septal deviation |
| pulp cavity | The central hollow of a tooth consisting of the crown cavity and the root canal; it contains the fibrovascular dental pulp and is lined throughout by odontoblasts. Synonym: cavitas dentis, cavity of tooth, cavum dentis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| somite cavity | 1. Protrusion of muscle substance through a rent in its sheath. Origin: myo-+ G. Kele, hernia 2. The small cavity that appears in somites. Synonym: somite cavity. Origin: myo-+ G. Koilia, a cavity (05 Mar 2000) |
| splanchnic cavity | The celom or one of the body cavity's derived from it. Synonym: visceral cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nephrotomic cavity | 1. Hernial displacement of a kidney. Origin: nephro-+ G. Kele, hernia 2. In lower vertebrates, the developmental cavity connecting the myocele with the celom. Synonym: nephrotomic cavity. Origin: nephro-+ G. Koiloma, a hollow (celom) (05 Mar 2000) |
| subarachnoid cavity | The space between the arachnoidea and pia mater, traversed by delicate fibrous trabeculae and filled with cerebrospinal fluid. Since the pia mater immediately adheres to the surface of the brain and spinal cord, the space is greatly widened wherever the brain surface exhibits a deep depression (for example, between the cerebellum and medulla); such widenings are called cisternae. The large blood vessels supplying the brain and spinal cord lie in the subarachnoid space. Synonym: cavum subarachnoideum, subarachnoid cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subdural cavity | Originally thought to be a narrow fluid-filled interval between the dural and arachnoid; now known to be an artificial space created by the separation of the arachnoid from the dura as the result of trauma or some ongoing pathologic process; in the healthy state, the arachnoid is attached to the dura and a naturally occurring subdural space is not present. Synonym: spatium subdurale, cavum subdurale, subdural cavity, subdural cleavage, subdural cleft. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subgerminal cavity | A flat sheet of intraembryonic endoderm that will change into a tubular gut due to the folding of embryonic body-head, tail and lateral body folds. Synonym: archenteron, celenteron, endodermal canal, subgerminal cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sulcus of promontory of tympanic cavity | A narrow branched groove running vertically over the surface of the promontory in the middle ear, lodging the tympanic plexus. Synonym: sulcus promontorii cavitatis tympanicae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| superior laryngeal cavity | The upper part of the laryngeal cavity from the superior aperture to the vestibular folds, bounded anteriorly by the epiglottis, laterally by themucosa overlying the quadrangular membranes and posteriorly by the mucosa overlying the arytenoid cartilages and arytenoideus muscle. Synonym: vestibulum laryngis, atrium glottidis, superior laryngeal cavity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dental cavity lining | <dentistry> An inner coating, as of varnish or other protective substance, to cover the dental cavity wall. It is usually a resinous film-forming agent dissolved in a volatile solvent, or a suspension of calcium hydroxide in a solution of a synthetic resin. The lining seals the dentinal tubules and protects the pulp before a restoration is inserted. (12 Dec 1998) |
| dental cavity preparation | <dentistry> An operation in which carious material is removed from teeth and biomechanically correct forms are established in the teeth to receive and retain restorations. A constant requirement is provision for prevention of failure of the restoration through recurrence of decay or inadequate resistance to applied stresses. (boucher's clinical dental terminology, 4th ed, p239-40) (12 Dec 1998) |
| dental pulp cavity | The space in a tooth bounded by the dentin and containing the dental pulp. The portion of the cavity within the crown of the tooth is the pulp chamber; the portion within the root is the pulp canal or root canal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| idiopathic bone cavity | A unilocular cyst containing serous fluid and lined with a thin layer of connective tissue, occurring usually in the shaft of a long bone in a child. Synonym: idiopathic bone cavity, osteocystoma, simple bone cyst, traumatic bone cyst, unicameral bone cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior laryngeal cavity | The part of the cavity of the larynx immediately below the glottis. Synonym: cavitas infraglotticum, aditus glottidis inferior, cavum infraglotticum, inferior laryngeal cavity, infraglottic space. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inferior wall of tympanic cavity | The floor of the tympanic cavity; a thin plate of bone separating the tympanic cavity from the jugular fossa. Synonym: paries jugularis cavi tympani, fundus tympani, inferior wall of tympanic cavity, jugular wall of middle ear. (05 Mar 2000) |
