| sheath of Key and Retzius | <anatomy> The delicate bands of connective tissue among nerve fibres. Origin: NL, fr. Gr. Within + a sinew, nerve. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| sheath of Schwann | <anatomy> The delicate outer sheath of a nerve fibre; the primitive sheath. The perineurium. Origin: NL, from gr. Nerve + peel, skin. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| sheath of Schweigger-Seidel | <geometry> A solid, all plane sections of which are ellipses or circles. See Conoid, 2 . The ellipsoid has three principal plane sections, a, b, and c, each at right angles to the other two, and each dividing the solid into two equal and symmetrical parts. The lines of meeting of these principal sections are the axes, or principal diameters of the ellipsoid. The point where the three planes meet is the center. Ellipsoid of revolution, a spheroid; a solid figure generated by the revolution of an ellipse about one of its axes. It is called a prolate spheroid, or prolatum, when the ellipse is revolved about the major axis, and an oblate spheroid, or oblatum, when it is revolved about the minor axis. Origin: Ellipse: cf. F. Ellipsoide. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| sheath of styloid process | A crest of bone (edge of the tympanic portion of the temporal bone) running from the front and medial side of the mastoid process to the spine of the sphenoid; it splits to ensheath the base of the styloid process. Synonym: vagina processus styloidei, vaginal process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sheath of thyroid gland | Covering of the thyroid gland external to its capsule formed by a splitting of the pretracheal layer of deep cervical fascia at the gland's posterior border; the anterior lamina covers the gland anterolaterally, attaching to the arch of the cricoid cartilage superior to the isthmus of the gland (causing it to move with the trachea during elevation/depression of the larynx); the posterior lamina passes posterior to the oesophagus to blend with the buccopharyngeal fascia; inferiorly, the sheath extends along the inferior thyroid veins to open into the superior mediastinum (hence, expansion of the thyroid, as by goiter, can take this direction). (05 Mar 2000) |
| sheath process of sphenoid bone | A thin lamina of bone that extends medially under the body of the sphenoid bone from the medial lamina of the pterygoid process; it articulates with the vomer and the palatine bone. Synonym: processus vaginalis ossis sphenoidalis, sheath process of sphenoid bone. (05 Mar 2000) |

| sheath-winged | <zoology> Having elytra, or wing cases, as a beetle. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| Neumann's sheath | A layer of tissue relatively resistant to the action of acids, which forms the walls of the dentinal tubules. Synonym: Neumann's sheath. (05 Mar 2000) |
| neurovascular sheath | Fibrous tissue enveloping and binding together arteries, their accompanying veins (venae comitantes) and nerves which run together; often it is merely the adventitious tissue of the neurovascular structures, but may be highly developed as a distinct fascial layer (e.g., in the case of the carotid or axillary sheaths). (05 Mar 2000) |
| notochordal sheath | The fibrous outer covering of the notochord. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Debye sheath | <radiobiology> The region of strong electric field in front of a material surface in contact with a plasma. Its characteristic thickness is the Debye length, and it is caused by Debye shielding of the negative surface charge resulting from electrons flowing to the surface much faster (initially) than the ions. The lost electrons leave behind a region of net positive charge which gradually diminishes the strength of the electric field over the Debye length. (13 Nov 1997) |
| dentinal sheath | A layer of tissue relatively resistant to the action of acids, which forms the walls of the dentinal tubules. Synonym: Neumann's sheath. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synovial sheath | See: synovial tendon sheath, vagina synovialis trochleae, synovial sheaths of digits of hand, synovial sheaths of digits of foot. (05 Mar 2000) |
| synovial tendon sheath | A sheath of synovial membrane enveloping certain of the tendons; it contains a small amount of synovial fluid. Synonym: vagina synovialis tendinis, mucous sheath of tendon, theca tendinis, vagina mucosa tendinis, vaginal synovial membrane. (05 Mar 2000) |
