  2. Pedicle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedicle

    Pedicle of vertebral arch, the segment between the transverse process and the vertebral body, and is often used as a radiographic marker and entry point in vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty procedures; Pedicle of a skin flap (medicine) Hilum of kidney, also called the renal pedicle; Pedicel, a foot process of a some cells

  3. Vertebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertebra

    Anatomy of a vertebra. The vertebral arch is formed by pedicles and laminae. Two pedicles extend from the sides of the vertebral body to join the body to the arch ...

  4. Brachiopod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachiopod

    The pedicle emerges from the pedicle valve, either through a notch in the hinge or, in species where the pedicle valve is longer than the brachial, from a hole where the pedicle valve doubles back to touch the brachial valve. Some species stand with the front end upwards, while others lie horizontal with the pedicle valve uppermost. [9]

  5. Lingula (brachiopod) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingula_(brachiopod)

    The stalk (or pedicle) is a long white extension of the body, that emerges at the apex from between the valves, and not, as in articulate brachiopods, from a special opening in the dorsal valve. At the rear end, that is deepest in the sea bed, the skin (or epithelium ) secretes a glue-like mucus that binds to the substrate's particles, thus ...

  6. Lumbar vertebrae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbar_vertebrae

    In human anatomy, the five vertebrae are between the rib cage and the pelvis.They are the largest segments of the vertebral column and are characterized by the absence of the foramen transversarium within the transverse process (since it is only found in the cervical region) and by the absence of facets on the sides of the body (as found only in the thoracic region).

  7. Thoracic vertebrae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoracic_vertebrae

    The tenth thoracic vertebra has an entire articular facet (not demi-facet) on either side, which is placed partly on the lateral surface of the pedicle. It doesn't have any kind of facet below, because the following ribs only have one facet on their heads. The thoracic spinal nerve 10 (T10) passes inferior to it.

  8. Perforator flaps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perforator_flaps

    The perforator propeller flap is the propeller flap which is used most commonly. It is a perforator flap with a skin island, which is separated in a larger and smaller paddle by the nourishing perforator. These paddles can rotate around the perforator (pedicle), for as many degrees as the anatomical situation requires (90-180 degrees).

  9. Renal hilum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_hilum

    The renal hilum or renal pedicle is the recessed central fissure of the kidney where its vessels, nerves and ureter pass. The medial border of the kidney is concave in the center and convex toward either extremity; it is directed forward and a little downward.
