| tendon bundle | A group of tendon fibres surrounded by a sheath of irregular connective tissue (peritendineum). (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| tendon cells | Elongated fibroblastic cell's arranged in rows between the collagenous tendon fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon graft | A graft of tendon, as in tendon transplantation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon injuries | Injuries to the fibrous cords of connective tissue which attach muscles to bones or other structures. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tendon recession | Surgical displacement of the tendon of an eye muscle posterior to its anatomic insertion. Synonym: curb tenotomy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon reflex | A myotatic or deep reflex in which the muscle stretch receptors are stimulated by percussing the tendon of a muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon suture | Suture of the divided ends of a tendon. Synonym: tendinosuture, tendon suture, tenosuture. Origin: teno-+ G. Rhaphe, suture (05 Mar 2000) |
| tendon transfer | Surgical procedure by which a tendon is incised at its insertion and placed at an anatomical site distant from the original insertion. The tendon remains attached at the point of origin and takes over the function of a muscle inactivated by trauma or disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| tendon transplantation | Insertion of a slip from the tendon of a sound muscle into the tendon of a paralysed muscle, replacement of a length of tendon by a free graft. (05 Mar 2000) |
| trefoil tendon | A three-lobed fibrous sheet occupying the centre of the diaphragm. Synonym: centrum tendineum diaphragmatis, trefoil tendon. Central tendon of perineum, the fibromuscular mass between the anal canal and the urogenital diaphragm in the median plane; midline episiotomies extend into this structure. Synonym: centrum tendineum perinei, perineal body, Savage's perineal body. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Zinn's tendon | A fibrous ring that surrounds the optic canal and the medial part of the superior orbital fissure; it gives origin to the four rectus muscles of the eye and is partially fused with the sheath of the optic nerve. Synonym: annulus tendineus communis, Zinn's ligament, Zinn's ring, Zinn's tendon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| paradoxical extensor reflex | <clinical sign> Extension of the great toe and abduction of the other toes instead of the normal flexion reflex to plantar stimulation, considered indicative of pyramidal tract involvement ("positive" Babinski). Synonym: Babinski reflex, Babinski's phenomenon, great-toe reflex, paradoxical extensor reflex, toe phenomenon. (05 Mar 2000) |
| retinacula of extensor muscles | See: inferior extensor retinaculum, superior extensor retinaculum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus extensor brevis digitorum | 1. <anatomy, muscle> (foot) Origin, dorsal surface of calcaneus; insertion, by four tendons fusing with those of the extensor digitorum longus, and by a slip attached independently to the base of the proximal phalanx of the great toe; action, extends toes; nerve supply, deep peroneal. Synonym: musculus extensor digitorum brevis, musculus extensor brevis digitorum, short extensor muscle of toes. 2. (hand) A short extensor muscle of the fingers of rare occurrence, and comparable to the short extensor of the toes. Synonym: musculus extensor digitorum brevis manus, Pozzi's muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| musculus extensor carpi radialis brevis | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, lateral epicondyle of humerus; insertion, base of third metacarpal bone; action, extends and abducts wrist radialward; nerve supply, radial. Synonym: musculus extensor carpi radialis brevis, short radial extensor muscle of wrist. (05 Mar 2000) |
