| canalis caroticus | A passage through the petrous part of the temporal bone from its inferior surface upward, medially, and forward to the apex where it opens into the foramen lacerum. It transmits the internal carotid artery and plexuses of veins and autonomic nerves. Synonym: canalis caroticus. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|
| paries caroticus cavi tympani | It contains the carotid canal and the opening of the auditory tube. Synonym: paries caroticus cavi tympani, anterior wall of middle ear, carotid wall of middle ear. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| plexus caroticus communis | An autonomic plexus accompanying the artery of the same name formed by fibres from the middle cervical ganglion. Synonym: plexus caroticus communis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus caroticus externus | An autonomic plexus formed by the external carotid nerves surrounding the artery of the same name, and giving origin to a number of secondary plexus's along the branches of this artery and to branches to the carotid body. Synonym: plexus caroticus externus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus caroticus internus | A venous network around the internal carotid artery in the carotid canal of the temporal bone, connecting with the cavernous sinus and internal jugular vein. Synonym: plexus venosus caroticus internus, internal carotid (nervous) plexus, plexus caroticus internus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| plexus venosus caroticus internus | A venous network around the internal carotid artery in the carotid canal of the temporal bone, connecting with the cavernous sinus and internal jugular vein. Synonym: plexus venosus caroticus internus, internal carotid (nervous) plexus, plexus caroticus internus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| sinus caroticus | <anatomy> A slight dilation in the carotid artery at its bifurcation into the external and internal carotid arteries, it contains baroreceptors (pressure sensors) that when stimulated, will cause a reflex slowing of the heart, vasodilation and a fall in blood pressure. (27 Sep 1997) |
| nervus caroticus internus | <anatomy, nerve> The cephalic arterial ramus conveying postsynaptic sympathetic fibres from the superior cervical ganglion to the internal carotid artery to form the internal carotid plexus. Synonym: nervus caroticus internus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nodulus caroticus | A small cluster of chemoreceptive and supporting cells located near the bifurcation of the internal carotid artery. The carotid body, which is richly supplied with fenestrated capillaries, senses the pH, carbon dioxide, and oxygen concentrations in the blood and plays a crucial role in their homeostatic control. (12 Dec 1998) |
| sulcus caroticus | The groove on the body of the sphenoid bone in which the internal carotid artery lies in its course through the cavernous sinus. Synonym: sulcus caroticus, carotid sulcus, cavernous groove. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ductus caroticus | A portion of the embryonic dorsal aorta between points of juncture with the third and fourth arch arteries; it disappears early in development. Synonym: carotid duct. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arteria canalis pterygoidei | Usually arises from the third part of the maxillary artery, but frequently from the greater palatine artery, within the pterygopalatine fossa. Passes posteriorly to run through the pterygoid canal with the corresponding nerve, supplying the contents and wall of the canal, the mucous membrane of the upper pharynx, the auditory tube and the tympanic cavity. Synonym: arteria canalis pterygoidei, vidian artery. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis | Synonym: canal. Origin: L. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis adductorius | The space in middle third of the thigh between the vastus medialis and adductor muscles, converted into a canal by the overlying sartorius muscle. It gives passage to the femoral vessels and saphenous nerve, ending at the adductor hiatus. Synonym: canalis adductorius, Hunter's canal, subsartorial canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis analis | The terminal portion of the alimentary canal; it extends from the pelvic diaphragm to the anal orifice. Synonym: canalis analis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| canalis carpi | The passageway deep to the transverse carpal ligament between tubercles of the scaphoid and trapezoid bones on the radial side and the pisiform and hook of the hamate on the ulnar side, through which the median nerve and the flexor tendons of the fingers and thumb pass; compression of the median nerve may occur here (carpal tunnel syndrome). Synonym: canalis carpi, carpal canal. (05 Mar 2000) |
