| cavity of septum pellucidum | A slitlike, fluid-filled space of variable width between the left and right transparent septum, which occurs in less than 10% of human brains and may communicate with the third ventricle. Synonym: cavum septi pellucidi, Duncan's ventricle, fifth ventricle, pseudocele, pseudoventricle, sylvian ventricle, ventricle of Sylvius, ventriculus quintus, Vieussens' ventricle, Wenzel's ventricle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pectiniform septum | Septum pectiniforme, the anterior portion of the septum penis which is broken by a number of slitlike perforations. Synonym: comblike septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous part of interventricular septum | Part of the fibrous skeleton of the heart which is seen as a small, thin, round or oval nonmuscular area at the superior end of the interventricular septum; it lies just below and is continuous with the portion of the fibrous ring of the aortic valve supporting the anterior and posterior cusps, and with the right fibrous trigone; the atrioventricular bundle of conducting tissue courses along its dorsal margin and bifurcates at its inferior margin into the right and left crura. Synonym: pars membranacea septi interventricularis, membranous septum, septum membranaceum ventriculorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous part of nasal septum | The small portion of the nasal septum anterior to the portion supported by the cartilage of the nasal septum. Synonym: pars membranacea septi nasi, membranous septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| membranous septum | The small portion of the nasal septum anterior to the portion supported by the cartilage of the nasal septum. Synonym: pars membranacea septi nasi, membranous septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Cloquet's septum | The delicate fibrous membrane that closes the femoral ring at the base of the femoral canal. Synonym: septum femorale, Cloquet's septum, crural septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mobile part of nasal septum | The anterior movable part of the nasal septum formed by the medial crus of the greater alar cartilage on each side. Synonym: pars mobilis septi nasi, septum mobile nasi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| comblike septum | Septum pectiniforme, the anterior portion of the septum penis which is broken by a number of slitlike perforations. Synonym: comblike septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| muscular part of interventricular septum of heart | The thick muscular portion which comprises most of the interventricular septum of the heart. Synonym: pars muscularis septi interventricularis cordis, septum musculare ventriculorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| crural septum | The delicate fibrous membrane that closes the femoral ring at the base of the femoral canal. Synonym: septum femorale, Cloquet's septum, crural septum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior vein of septum pellucidum | Vein draining the posterior part of the transparent septum; it empties into the superior thalamostriate vein. Synonym: vena septi pellucidi posterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| precommissural septum | See: septal area. (05 Mar 2000) |
| hanging septum | The deformity caused by an abnormal width of the septal portion of the alar cartilages. (05 Mar 2000) |
