| cavernous sinus syndrome | <syndrome> This condition is characterised by oedema of the eyelids and conjunctivae and paralysis of the third, fourth and sixth cranial nerves. It is due to a cavernous sinus thrombosis. (27 Sep 1997) |
|---|---|
| cavernous sinus thrombosis | <neurology> A blood clot within the cavernous sinus (a sinus cavity which is bordered by the sphenoid bone and the temporal bone). This condition produces a syndrome called cavernous sinus syndrome. (16 Mar 1998) |
| renal sinus | The cavity of the kidney, containing the calyces and pelvis of the ureter and the segmental vesels embedded within a fatty matrix. The renal sinuses cause the kidneys to appear hollow or C-shaped on cross section or medical imaging. Synonym: sinus renalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervical sinus | In young mammalian embryos a depression in the nuchal region caudal to the hyoid arch, with the third and fourth branchial arches and ectodermal grooves in its floor; normally it is obliterated after the second month, but occasionally cervical fistulae persist as vestiges of it. Synonym: precervical sinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Ridley's sinus | The anterior and posterior anastomoses between the cavernous sinus's, passing anterior and posterior to the hypophysis and forming, with the cavernous sinuses, the circular sinus. Synonym: sinus intercavernosi, Ridley's sinus. Jugular sinus Sinus jugularis, one of three enlargements of the jugular veins; the external jugular sinus is between the two sets of valves; the internal jugular sinus's are at the origin (superior bulb) and near the termination (inferior bulb). (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for sigmoid sinus | A broad groove in the posterior cranial fossa, first situated on the lateral portion of the occipital bone, then curving around the jugular process on to the mastoid portion of the temporal bone, and finally turning sharply on the posterior inferior angle of the parietal bone and becoming continuous with the transverse groove; it lodges the transverse sinus. Synonym: sulcus sinus sigmoidei, sigmoid fossa, sigmoid groove, sigmoid sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for superior petrosal sinus | A groove on the crest of the petrous portion of the temporal bone in which rests the superior petrosal sinus. Synonym: sulcus sinus petrosi superioris, superior petrosal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for superior sagittal sinus | The groove in the midline of the inner table of the calvaria lodging the superior sagittal sinus. Synonym: sulcus sinus sagittalis superioris, sagittal groove, sagittal sulcus, superior longitudinal sulcus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| groove for transverse sinus | The groove on the inner surface of the occipital bone marking the course of the transverse sinus; the tentorium is attached to its margins. Synonym: sulcus sinus transversi, sulcus for transverse sinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Petit's sinus | The space between the superior aspect of each cusp of the aortic valve and the dilated portion of the wall of the ascending aorta, immediately above each cusp. Synonym: sinus aortae, Petit's sinus, Valsalva's sinus. Arlt's sinus, an inconstant depression on the lower portion of the internal surface of the lacrimal sac. Barber's pilonidal sinus, pilonidal sinus occurring in barbers, usually in the web between the fingers, due to the burying of exogenous hairs by the alternate loosening and tightening of tissues of the hand by the manipulation of scissors. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Guerin's sinus | A cul-de-sac or diverticulum behind the valve of the navicular fossa. (05 Mar 2000) |
| petrosal sinus | See: inferior petrosal sinus, superior petrosal sinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| petrosal sinus sampling | Sampling of blood levels of the adrenocorticotropic hormone (acth) by withdrawal of blood from the inferior petrosal sinus. The inferior petrosal sinus arises from the cavernous sinus and runs to the internal jugular vein. Sampling of blood at this level is a valuable tool in the differential diagnosis of cushing disease, cushing syndrome, and other adrenocortical diseases. (12 Dec 1998) |
| phasic sinus arrhythmia | Sinus arrhythmia in which the irregularity is related to the phases of respiration, the rate being faster in inspiration and slower in expiration. (05 Mar 2000) |
| circular sinus | Dural venous formation which surrounds the hypophysis, composed of right and left cavernous sinuses and the intercavernous sinuses. Synonym: circulus venosus ridleyi, Ridley's circle. A venous sinus at the periphery of the placenta. Synonym: sinus venosus sclerae. (05 Mar 2000) |
