| fissura cerebri lateralis | The deepest and most prominent of the cortical fissures, extending from the anterior perforated substance first laterally at the deep incisure between the frontal and temporal lobes, then back and slightly upward over the lateral aspect of the cerebral hemisphere, with the superior temporal gyrus as its lower bank, the insula forming its greatly expanded floor. Two short side branches, the ramus anterior and ramus ascendens, divide the inferior frontal gyrus into an orbital part, triangular part, and opercular part. Synonym: sulcus lateralis cerebri, fissura cerebri lateralis, lateral cerebral fissure, sylvian fissure, fissure of Sylvius. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fissura longitudinalis cerebri | The deep cleft separating the two hemispheres of the cerebrum. Synonym: fissura longitudinalis cerebri, great longitudinal fissure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fissura transversa cerebri | The triangular space between the corpus callosum and fornix above and the dorsal surface of the thalamus below, which is bounded laterally by the choroid fissure of the lateral ventricle, lined by pia mater, and opens caudally into the cistern of the great cerebral vein of the subarachnoid space. Synonym: fissura transversa cerebri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lacuna cerebri | A small circumscribed loss of brain tissue caused by occlusion of one of the small penetrating arteries. Synonym: lacuna cerebri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lamina terminalis cerebri | A thin plate passing upward from the optic chiasm and forming the rostral boundary of the third ventricle; membrane closing the rostral neuropore. Synonym: lamina terminalis cerebri, lamina cinerea, terminal plate, velum terminale. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fossa lateralis cerebri | The deep depression of the basal surface of the forebrain that corresponds in position to the anterior perforated substance. Bounded medially by the optic tract and rostrally by the orbital surface of the frontal lobe, it extends laterally around the overhanging pole of the temporal lobe into the Sylvian fissure (sulcus lateralis). Synonym: fossa lateralis cerebri, fossa of Sylvius, lateral fossa of brain, vallecula sylvii. (05 Mar 2000) |
| leukodystrophia cerebri progressiva | <radiology> Type of dysmyelinating disease, hereditary, peripheral nervous system unaffected in some disorders Specific diseases: adrenoleukodystrophy, metachromatic leukodystrophy, spongy degeneration (Canavan), globoid cell (Krabbe) leukodystrophy, Alexander disease, Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease, Cockayne syndrome (12 Dec 1998) |
| lobus frontalis cerebri | The portion of each cerebral hemisphere anterior to the central sulcus. Synonym: lobus frontalis cerebri, frontal lobe. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus occipitalis cerebri | The posterior, somewhat pyramid-shaped part of each cerebral hemisphere, demarcated by no distinct surface markings on the lateral convexity of the hemisphere from the parietal and temporal lobes, but sharply delineated from the parietal lobe by the parieto-occipital sulcus on the medial surface. Synonym: lobus occipitalis cerebri, occipital lobe. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lobus parietalis cerebri | The middle portion of each cerebral hemisphere, separated from the frontal lobe by the central sulcus, from the temporal lobe by the lateral sulcus in front and an imaginary line projected posteriorly, and from the occipital lobe only partially by the parieto-occipital sulcus on its medial aspect. Synonym: lobus parietalis cerebri, parietal lobe. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria | Synonym: artery. See: branch. Origin: L. From G. Arteria, the windpipe, later an artery as distinct from a vein (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria acetabuli | An arterial branch that supplies the acetabulum; two arteries, the obturator and the medial femoral circumflex, have such branches. Synonym: ramus acetabularis, acetabular artery, arteria acetabuli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria alveolaris inferior | <anatomy, artery> Origin, 1st part of maxillary artery; distribution, through mandibular foramen/canal to lower teeth and chin; branches, artery to mylohyoid, mental artery, dental arteries. Synonym: arteria alveolaris inferior, inferior dental artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria anastomotica auricularis magna | <anatomy, artery> A vessel of variable origin, most commonly a branch of the circumflex artery, coursing posteriorly through the base of the interatrial septum toward the crux of the heart, anastomosing with coronary artery branches supplying the atrioventricular node, the atrioventricular bundle (bundle of His), and the upper posterior walls of the left ventricle. Synonym: arteria anastomotica auricularis magna. (05 Mar 2000) |
