| cruciform ligament of atlas | The strong ligament that lies posterior to the dens of the axis holding it against the anterior arch of the atlas; it consists primarily of the transverse ligament of the atlas that forms the cross-bar of the cross and is most important functionally, and longitudinal bands of the cruciform ligament, forming the upright or vertical beams of the cross. Synonym: ligamentum cruciforme atlantis, crucial ligament, cruciate ligament of the atlas, ligamentum cruciatum atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| longitudinal bands of cruciform ligament | <anatomy> Ligamentous slips forming the "upright" or vertical beam of the cruciform ligament. Synonym: fasciculi longitudinales ligamenti cruciformis atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cruciate ligament of the atlas | The strong ligament that lies posterior to the dens of the axis holding it against the anterior arch of the atlas; it consists primarily of the transverse ligament of the atlas that forms the cross-bar of the cross and is most important functionally, and longitudinal bands of the cruciform ligament, forming the upright or vertical beams of the cross. Synonym: ligamentum cruciforme atlantis, crucial ligament, cruciate ligament of the atlas, ligamentum cruciatum atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transverse ligament of the atlas | Thick, strong, centrally flattened band spanning the vertebral foramen of the atlas as it extends from the medial aspect of one lateral mass to the other, passing dorsal to the dens with which it articulates; it forms the dorsal portion of the opening for the dens, tightly embracing its neck. It forms a part of the "cross-bar" of the cruciform ligament of the atlas. See: cruciform ligament of atlas. Synonym: ligamentum transversum atlantis, Lauth's ligament, transverse atlantal ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cruciform eminence | Bony cross-like elevation on the internal aspect of the squamous portion of the occipital bone formed by the intersection of the groove for the transverse sinuses and the internal occipital crest, with the internal occipital protuberance at the centre of the "cross." Synonym: eminentia cruciformis, cruciate eminence. (05 Mar 2000) |

| cruciform part of fibrous digital sheath | The fibres of the fibrous sheath of the fingers and toes which form X-shaped patterns over the region of the interphalangeal joints. Synonym: pars cruciformis vaginae fibrosae, crucial ligament, cruciform part of fibrous sheath, cruciform pulley, ligamenta cruciata digitorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cruciform part of fibrous sheath | The fibres of the fibrous sheath of the fingers and toes which form X-shaped patterns over the region of the interphalangeal joints. Synonym: pars cruciformis vaginae fibrosae, crucial ligament, cruciform part of fibrous sheath, cruciform pulley, ligamenta cruciata digitorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cruciform pulley | The fibres of the fibrous sheath of the fingers and toes which form X-shaped patterns over the region of the interphalangeal joints. Synonym: pars cruciformis vaginae fibrosae, crucial ligament, cruciform part of fibrous sheath, cruciform pulley, ligamenta cruciata digitorum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cruciform structure | A structure, shaped like a cross, which can form during homologous recombination when inverted base-pair repeats pair with each other on the same strand of DNA instead of with homologous sections on a different strand of DNA. (09 Oct 1997) |
| anterior arch of atlas | An arch that connects the lateral masses of the atlas anteriorly and articulates with the anterior articular facet of the dens of the axis. Synonym: arcus anterior atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior tubercle of atlas | A conical protuberance on the anterior surface of the arch of the atlas. Synonym: tuberculum anterius atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| atlas | 1. One who sustains a great burden. 2. <anatomy> The first vertebra of the neck, articulating immediately with the skull, thus sustaining the globe of the head, whence the name. 3.

This name is said to have been first used by Mercator, the celebrated geographer, in the 16th century. 4. <chemistry> Atlas powder, a nitroglycerin blasting compound of pasty consistency and great explosive power. Origin: L. Atlas, -antis, Gr, one of the older family of gods, who bears up the pillars of heaven; also Mt. Atlas, in W. Africa, regarded as the pillar of heaven. It is from the root of to bear.

| pit of atlas for dens | A circular facet on the posterior (inner) surface of the anterior arch of the atlas which articulates with the dens of the axis. Synonym: fovea dentis atlantis, pit of atlas for dens. (05 Mar 2000) |
| posterior arch of atlas | The posterior arch of the atlas that connects the lateral masses of the atlas posteriorly, forming the posterior wall of the vertebral canal at this level. Synonym: arcus posterior atlantis. (05 Mar 2000) |
