| pedunculated hydatid | A small pedunculated body often attached to the head of the epididymis which is a vestige of the embryonic mesonephric duct. Synonym: appendix epididymidis, pedunculated hydatid. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculated polyp | Any form of polyp that is attached to the base tissue by means of a slender stalk. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculomamillary fasciculus | A fascicle of nerve fibres passing to the mamillary body along the ventral surface of the midbrain; it consists of fibres that originate from the dorsal and ventral tegmental nuclei. Synonym: pedunculus corporis mamillaris, fasciculus pedunculomamillaris, pedunculomamillary fasciculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculotomy | 1. A total or partial section of a cerebral peduncle. 2. A mesencephalic pyramidal tractotomy. Origin: peduncle + G. Tome, incision (05 Mar 2000) |

| pedunculus cerebellaris inferior | 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. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus cerebellaris medius | The largest of three paired cerebellar peduncles, composed mainly of fibres that originate in the pontine nuclei, cross the midline in the ventral part of pons, and emerge on the opposite side as a massive bundle arching dorsally along the lateral side of the pontine tegmentum into the cerebellum; its fibres are distributed chiefly to the cortex of the cerebellar hemisphere. Synonym: pedunculus cerebellaris medius, brachium pontis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus cerebellaris superior | A large bundle of nerve fibres that originate from the dentate and interpositus nuclei and emerges from the cerebellum in the rostral direction, along the lateral wall of the fourth ventricle. The bundle submerges from the dorsal surface of the brainstem into the mesencephalic tegmentum, where all of its fibres cross in the massive decussation of the superior cerebellar peduncles. Part of the bundle terminates in the contralateral red nucleus; the bulk of the fibres continue rostrally to parts of the ventral intermediate nucleus of thalamus, ventral posterolateral nucleus of thalamus, and central lateral nucleus of thalamus. Synonym: pedunculus cerebellaris superior, brachium conjunctivum cerebelli. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus cerebri | Originally denoting either of the two halves of the midbrain (a relatively narrow "neck" connecting the forebrain to the hindbrain); this term has been variably used to designate only those large bundles of corticofugal fibres forming the crus cerebri, or to designate the crus cerebri plus the midbrain tegmentum; this latter more inclusive usage (crus cerebri and midbrain tegmentum) is preferred; the substantia nigra, while a part of the base of the peduncle (basis pedunculi), is considered a structure separating the midbrain tegmentum from the crus cerebri. See: crus cerebri. Synonym: pedunculus cerebri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus corporis callosi | A slender vertical whitish band immediately anterior to the lamina terminalis and anterior commissure; contrary to its name, it is not a cortical convolution but is the ventral continuation of the transparent septum. Synonym: area subcallosa, gyrus paraterminalis, gyrus subcallosus, pedunculus corporis callosi, corpus paraterminale, paraterminal body, paraterminal gyrus, peduncle of corpus callosum, precommissural septal area, subcallosal area, Zuckerkandl's convolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus corporis mamillaris | A fascicle of nerve fibres passing to the mamillary body along the ventral surface of the midbrain; it consists of fibres that originate from the dorsal and ventral tegmental nuclei. Synonym: pedunculus corporis mamillaris, fasciculus pedunculomamillaris, pedunculomamillary fasciculus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pedunculus flocculi | The bundle of afferent and efferent nerve fibres connecting the flocculus and the nodule of the cerebellum; part of its course is in the inferior medullary velum. Synonym: pedunculus flocculi. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pederasty |
Pederasty, as idealized by the ancient Greeks, was a relationship and bond between an adolescent boy and an adult man outside of his immediate family. In a wider sense it refers to erotic love between adolescents and adult men. The word derives from the combination of pais (Greek for 'boy') with erastis (Greek for 'lover'; cf. eros). In those societies where pederasty is prevalent, it appears as one form of a widely practiced male bisexuality. ...

| pediculophobia |
The English suffix -phobia is technically used to describe irrational, disabling fear as a mental disorder, and commonly misused to describe hatred of a particular thing or subject. Everyday language has misused the use of this suffix as a mild or irrational fear with no serious substance; however, its origin is from areas of psychiatry which study serious phobias which disable a person's life. ...
