To the definition of an oval in a projective plane To the definition of an ovoid. In a projective plane a set Ω of points is called an oval, if: Any line l meets Ω in at most two points, and; For any point P ∈ Ω there exists exactly one tangent line t through P, i.e., t ∩ Ω = {P}.
A condyloid joint (also called condylar, ellipsoidal, or bicondylar [1]) is an ovoid articular surface, or condyle that is received into an elliptical cavity. This permits movement in two planes, allowing flexion , extension , adduction , abduction , and circumduction .
Definition Etymologic memory aid; apophysis: Any of various processes or protuberances on a bone. apo-+ physis, "outward from the growth part; outgrowth" diaphysis: The long, relatively straight main body of a long bone; region of primary ossification. Also known as the shaft. dia-+ physis, "between the growth parts" epiphysis
It is slightly ovoid in shape and is oriented "superior-to-posteroinferior. (Cerezal)" This orientation might be favorable for the tensed fibers of the ligamentum teres. The fovea capitis is located "slightly posterior and inferior to the center of the articular surface of the femoral head (Cerezal)" Unlike the head of the femur, the fovea ...

Epithelioid cells gather around the focus of necrosis, in direct contact with the necrotic masses, forming a kind of boundary zone.. Structurally, epithelioid cells (when examined by light microscopy after stained with hematoxylin and eosin), are elongated, with finely granular, pale eosinophilic (pink) cytoplasm, and central, ovoid nuclei (oval or elongate), which are less dense than that of ...
