| Morgagni's caruncle | The portion of the prostate lying between the urethra and the ejaculatory ducts; indistinct unless hypertrophied. Synonym: lobus medius prostatae, Morgagni's caruncle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Santorini's major caruncle | Point of opening of the common bile duct and pancreatic duct into the duodenum; it is located posteriorly in the descending part of the duodenum. Synonym: papilla duodeni major, bile papilla, papilla of Vater, Santorini's major caruncle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Santorini's minor caruncle | The site of the opening of the accessory pancreatic duct into the duodenum, located anterior to and slightly superior to the major papilla. Synonym: papilla duodeni minor, Santorini's minor caruncle. Nerve papilla, one of the papillae in the dermis containing a tactile corpuscle or other form of end organ. Synonym: neurothele. (05 Mar 2000) |
| urethral caruncle | A small, fleshy, sometimes painful protrusion of the mucous membrane at the meatus of the female urethra; it may be telangiectatic, papillomatous, or composed of granulation tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |

| biopsy, endometrial | <investigation, procedure, surgery> A procedure by which a sample is taken of the endometrial lining of the uterus. This may be performed with or without an anaesthetic. Risks include bleeding after the procedure. This test is usually performed in the evaluation of abnormal menses, heavy menstruation or post-menopausal bleeding. It may be part of an infertility evaluation. Endometrial biopsy can reveal uterine cancer, uterine fibroids, uterine polyps and adenomyosis. Often performed in those with endometriosis as part of the evaluation. (21 Mar 1998) |
| sarcoma, endometrial stromal | A highly malignant neoplasm of the endometrium, arising from the endometrial stroma. It represents one type of stromal tumour, the other being endolymphatic stromal myosis. They are differentiated on the basis of the number of mitoses per 10 high power fields: endometrial stromal sarcoma has 10 or more mitoses, endolymphatic stromal myosis fewer. Stroma sarcoma is seen most often between the ages of 45 and 50. (devita jr et al., cancer: principles & practice of oncology, 3d ed, p1146) (12 Dec 1998) |
| endometrial | Relating to or composed of endometrium. (05 Mar 2000) |

| endometrial carcinoma | <oncology, tumour> A malignant cancer which arises from the cells which line the uterus. (27 Sep 1997) |
| endometrial cyst | A cyst resulting from endometrial implantation outside the uterus, as in endometriosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial hyperplasia | <gynaecology, pathology> Thickening of the endometrial lining due to an overgrowth of mucosal cells. Symptoms often include irregular vaginal bleeding, heavy or prolonged menstrual cycles and post-menopausal bleeding in older women. Origin: Gr. Plassein = to form (07 Apr 1998) |
| endometrial implants | Fragments of endometrial mucosa implanted on pelvic structure following retrograde transference through the oviducts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| endometrial neoplasms | The most common invasive gynecologic malignancy in the united states, typically in postmenopausal women. The neoplasm originates on the endometrial mucosa and may be focal or diffuse. It may progress to invasion of the myometrium. The commonest histologic type is adenocarcinoma but adenoacanthoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, epidermoid carcinoma, and other histological types of cancer are possible. (12 Dec 1998) |
