| diffuse gallbladder wall thickening | <radiology> Criterion: gall bladder wall greater than 3 mm may appear thicker due to surrounding ascites, cholecystitis (acute or chronic), non-fasting state, chronic hypoalbuminaemia, hepatitis, congestive heart failure, fat in gall bladder fossa Cf: focal thickening (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| focal gallbladder wall thickening | <radiology> Primary gall bladder carcinoma, adenomyomatosis / hyperplastic cholecystosis, adenomatous polyps, papillary adenomas, metastatic nodules, cholesterol polyps (associated with acoustic shadowing), metachromatic leukodystrophy (rare!) See also: diffuse thickening (12 Dec 1998) |
| subperiosteal | <anatomy> Situated under the periosteum. <surgery> Subperiosteal operation, a removal of bone effected without taking away the periosteum. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| subperiosteal abscess | An abscess between the periosteum and cortical plate of the bone. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subperiosteal amputation | Amputation in which the periosteum is stripped back from the bone and replaced afterward, forming a periosteal flap over the cut end. Synonym: periosteoplastic amputation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subperiosteal fracture | A fracture occurring beneath the periosteum, and without displacement. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subperiosteal implant | An artificial metal appliance made to conform to the shape of a bone and placed on its surface beneath the periosteum. See: implant denture substructure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| dental implantation, subperiosteal | The grafting or inserting of an appliance designed to fit over the surface of the mandible or the maxilla, beneath the specialised connective tissue that covers the bone (periosteum). (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, adrenal cortical | A benign neoplasm of adrenal cortical cells resembling normal adrenal cells histologically but possessing functional autonomy. In general it does not exceed 5 cm in its largest dimension, although benign tumours exceeding 20 cm have been reported. Adrenal cortical adenomas produce hypercortisolism and hyperaldosteronism, but seldom produce adrenogenital syndromes. For the most part the prognosis after surgery is reasonably favourable. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adrenal cortical carcinomas | Large invasive and metastasizing tumours which may cause virilism or Cushing's syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adrenal cortical syndrome | <syndrome> An inexact (and obsolete) term that has been applied to Cushing's syndrome, Addison's disease, or the adrenogenital syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| blindness, cortical | Total loss of vision in all or part of the visual field due to a lesion in the striate area, characterised by the patient's subjective unawareness of his disability and the absence of cortical functions of vision, with the subcortical functions intact. (12 Dec 1998) |
| carcinoma, adrenal cortical | A malignant neoplasm of adrenal cortical cells demonstrating partial or complete histological and functional differentiation. They are rare, comprising between only 0.05% and 0.2% of all cancers. Women develop functional adrenal cortical carcinomas more commonly than men, but men develop nonfunctioning ones more often than women. Hypercortisolism is the most common presentation for this cancer. Virilism and cushing's syndrome may also result. (12 Dec 1998) |
| generalised cortical hyperostosis | <syndrome> An inherited skeletal dysplasia, with mandibular enlargement and thickening of the diaphyses and calvaria, and increased serum alkaline phosphatase; autosomal recessive inheritance. Synonym: generalised cortical hyperostosis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| renal cortical adenoma | <tumour> One of the usually small adenoma's sometimes found in the renal cortex and derived from renal tubular tissue. (05 Mar 2000) |
