| A.I. | aortic incompetence |
| palatopharyngeal | Relating to palate and pharynx. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| palatopharyngeal arch | One of a pair of ridges or folds of mucous membrane which passes downward from the posterior margin of the soft palate to the lateral wall of the pharynx. It encloses the palatopharyngeus muscle and forms the posterior margin of the tonsillar fossa. It also demarcates the isthmus of fauces from oropharynx. Synonym: arcus palatopharyngeus, pharyngopalatine arch, posterior palatine arch, posterior pillar of fauces. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatopharyngeal muscle | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, soft palate; forms the posterior pillar of the fauces or tonsillar fossa; insertion, posterior border of thyroid cartilage and aponeurosis of pharynx; action, narrows fauces, depresses soft palate, elevates pharynx and larynx; nerve supply, pharyngeal plexus (cranial root of accessory nerve). Synonym: musculus palatopharyngeus, musculus pharyngopalatinus, palatopharyngeal muscle, palatopharyngeus, pharyngopalatinus, pharyngostaphylinus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| palatopharyngeal sphincter | A constant band of the superior pharyngeal constrictor muscle which sweeps posteriorly from the anterolateral part of the superior surface of the palatine aponeurosis. It creates a visible ridge when the superior constrictor is contracted, meeting the elevated soft palate to seal off the pharyngeal isthmus during swallowing. Synonym: pharyngeal ridge, sphincter of the pharyngeal isthmus, velopharyngeal sphincter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| aortic incompetence | Defective closure of the aortic valve permitting regurgitation into the left ventricle during diastole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardiac incompetence | Inability of the ventricles to pump out the blood returning to the atria fast enough to prevent an abnormal rise in atrial pressure or to pump sufficient blood to maintain normal circulatory function. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cardiac valvular incompetence | Failure of a valve to perform its fundamental function: insurance of one-way flow; manifested by regurgitation of blood in the opposite direction when the valve is supposed to be closed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| valvular incompetence | A leaky state of one or more of the cardiac valves, the valve not closing tightly and blood therefore regurgitating through it. Synonym: valvular incompetence, valvular insufficiency. (05 Mar 2000) |
| relative incompetence | Imperfect closure of a cardiac valve, in consequence of excessive dilation of the corresponding cavity of the heart. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cervix incompetence | Habitual abortion in which painless bloodless dilatation of the cervix in the second trimester of pregnancy is followed by rupture of membranes and expulsion of a foetus so immature that it usually dies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| mitral incompetence | <cardiology> The back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium through a defective mitral bicuspid valve. The most common cause for mitral regurgitation is rheumatic fever. Other causes include: myocardial infarction, massive calcification of the mitral annulus (in the elderly), lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, infectious endocarditis and ankylosing spondylitis. (13 Nov 1997) |
| muscular incompetence | Imperfect closure of an anatomically normal cardiac valve, in consequence of defective action of its papillary muscles. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pulmonary incompetence | Defective closure of the pulmonic valve permitting regurgitation into the right ventricle during diastole. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pyloric incompetence | A patulous state or want of tone of the pylorus that allows the passage of food into the intestine before gastric digestion is completed. (05 Mar 2000) |
| incompetence | Physical or mental inadequacy or insufficiency. Origin: L. Competens = sufficient (13 Nov 1997) |
