| amniotic fold | A fold of amniotic membrane enclosing the yolk stalk and extending from the point of insertion of the umbilical cord to the yolk sac; in reptiles and birds it is the reflected edge of the amnion where it folds over to cover the embryo during early development. Synonym: Schultze's fold. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior axillary fold | Bounds axilla anteriorly; formed by skin and fascia overlying inferior border of pectoralis major muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aryepiglottic fold | A prominent fold of mucous membrane stretching between the lateral margin of the epiglottis and the arytenoid cartilage on either side; it encloses the aryepiglottic muscle. Synonym: plica aryepiglottica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| axillary fold | One of the folds of skin and muscular tissue bounding the axilla anteriorly and posteriorly. Synonym: plica axillaris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palpebronasal fold | A fold of skin that comes down across the inner angle of the eye. The epicanthal fold is more common in children with Down syndrome and other birth defects than normal children and so is of value in diagnosis. Although some dictionaries state that this eye fold is found in peoples of Asian origin, this is not true. The normal Asian eyefold is continuous with the lower edge of the upper eyelid and actually appears distinctly different than a true epicanthal fold. (12 Dec 1998) |
