| umbo of tympanic membrane | The projection on the inner surface of the tympanic membrane at the end of the manubrium of the malleus; this corresponds to the most depressed point of the membrane, viewed laterally, that is commonly called the umbo. Synonym: umbo membranae tympani, umbo. (05 Mar 2000) |

| flaccid part of tympanic membrane | Triangular loose part of tympanic membrane between the malleolar folds. Synonym: pars flaccida membranae tympani, flaccid membrane, membrana flaccida, Rivinus' membrane, Shrapnell's membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
| floor 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) |
| lateral wall of tympanic cavity | The wall formed mainly by the tympanic membrane. Synonym: paries membranaceus cavi tympani, lateral wall of middle ear, membranous wall of middle ear. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lesser tympanic spine | The posterior edge of the tympanic notch (of Rivinus). Synonym: spina tympanica minor. (05 Mar 2000) |
| limbus of tympanic membrane | Margin of the tympanic membrane attaching to the tympanic sulcus. Synonym: limbus membranae tympani. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aberrant ganglion | A collection of nerve cells sometimes found on a posterior spinal nerve root between the spinal ganglion and the spinal cord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acousticofacial ganglion | A primordial ganglionic cell mass in young embryos which later separates into the acoustic or spiral ganglion of the vestibulocochlear (eighth cranial) nerve and the geniculate ganglion of the facial (seventh cranial) nerve. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Acrel's ganglion | Pseudoganglion on the posterior interosseous nerve on the dorsal aspect of the wrist joint, a cyst on a tendon of an extensor muscle at the level of the wrist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Andersch's ganglion | <anatomy, nerve> The lower of two sensory ganglion's on the glossopharyngeal nerve as it traverses the jugular foramen.

| Arnold's ganglion | An autonomic ganglion situated below the foramen ovale medial to the mandibular nerve; its postganglionic, parasympathetic fibres are distributed to the parotid gland. Synonym: ganglion oticum, Arnold's ganglion, auricular ganglion, otoganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| auditory ganglion | An elongated ganglion of bipolar sensory nerve cell bodies on the cochlear part of the vestibulocochlear nerve in the spiral canal of the modiolus; each ganglion cell gives rise to a peripheral process that passes between the layers of the bony spiral lamina to the organ of Corti, and a central axon that enters the hindbrain as a component of the inferior (cochlear) root of the eighth nerve. Synonym: ganglion spirale cochleae, auditory ganglion, cochlear ganglion, Corti's ganglion, spiral cochlear ganglion. (05 Mar 2000) |
