| thyroglossal duct | A transitory endodermal tube in the embryo, carrying thyroid-forming tissue at its caudal end; normally, the duct disappears after the thyroid has moved to its definitive location in the neck; its point of origin is regularly marked on the root of the adult tongue by the foramen caecum; occasionally, its incomplete regression results in the formation of cysts along its embryonic course. See: pyramidal lobe of thyroid gland. Synonym: ductus thyroglossus, thyrolingual duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyroglossal duct cyst | A cyst in the midline of the neck resulting from nonclosure of a segment of the ductus thyroglossus. Synonym: cervical cyst. (05 Mar 2000) |
| thyrolingual duct | A transitory endodermal tube in the embryo, carrying thyroid-forming tissue at its caudal end; normally, the duct disappears after the thyroid has moved to its definitive location in the neck; its point of origin is regularly marked on the root of the adult tongue by the foramen caecum; occasionally, its incomplete regression results in the formation of cysts along its embryonic course. See: pyramidal lobe of thyroid gland. Synonym: ductus thyroglossus, thyrolingual duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| efferent duct | One of 12 to 14 small seminal ducts leading from the testis to the head of the epididymis. Synonym: ductulus efferens testis, vas efferens, efferent duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ejaculatory duct | The duct formed by the union of the deferent duct and the excretory duct of the seminal vesicle, which opens into the prostatic urethra. Synonym: ductus ejaculatorius, spermiduct. (05 Mar 2000) |
