| Label | Id | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Corneal Dystrophies, Hereditary | D003317 | [Bilateral hereditary disorders of the cornea, usually autosomal dominant, which may be present at birth but more frequently develop during adolescence and progress slowly throughout life. Central macular dystrophy is transmitted as an autosomal recessive defect.] |
| Syringomyelia | D013595 | [Longitudinal cavities in the spinal cord, most often in the cervical region, which may extend for multiple spinal levels. The cavities are lined by dense, gliogenous tissue and may be associated with SPINAL CORD NEOPLASMS; spinal cord traumatic injuries; and vascular malformations. Syringomyelia is marked clinically by pain and PARESTHESIA, muscular atrophy of the hands, and analgesia with thermoanesthesia of the hands and arms, but with the tactile sense preserved (sensory dissociation). Lower extremity spasticity and incontinence may also develop. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1269)] |
| Corneal Opacity | D003318 | [Disorder occurring in the central or peripheral area of the cornea. The usual degree of transparency becomes relatively opaque.] |
| Syphilis, Latent | D013592 | [The stage of syphilis that occurs following the primary (CHANCRE) and secondary stages. The patient is asymptomatic at the latent stage but remains seropositive for the SPIROCHETE.] |
| Syphilis, Cutaneous | D013591 | [Cutaneous lesions arising from infection with Treponema pallidum. In the primary stage, 18-21 days following infection, one or more chancres appear. If untreated, the subsequent stages of the disease appear as syphilids. These eruptions are superficial, nondestructive, exanthematic, transient, macular roseolas that may later be maculopapular or papular polymorphous or scaly, pustular, pigmented eruptions.(Arnold, Odom, and James, Andrew's Diseases of the Skin, 8th ed, p409)] |
| Wet Macular Degeneration | D057135 | [A form of RETINAL DEGENERATION in which abnormal CHOROIDAL NEOVASCULARIZATION occurs under the RETINA and MACULA LUTEA, causing bleeding and leaking of fluid. This leads to bulging and or lifting of the macula and the distortion or destruction of central vision.] |
| Infant Death | D066088 | [The death of a live-born INFANT within its first year of life.] |
| Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome | D045169 | [A viral disorder characterized by high FEVER, dry COUGH, shortness of breath (DYSPNEA) or breathing difficulties, and atypical PNEUMONIA. A virus in the genus CORONAVIRUS is the suspected agent.] |
| Perinatal Death | D066087 | [The death of a FETUS of GESTATIONAL AGE 28 weeks or more, or the death of a live-born INFANT less than 28 days of age., The death of a live-born INFANT less than 28 days of age.] |
| Acromegaly | D000172 | [A condition caused by prolonged exposure to excessive HUMAN GROWTH HORMONE in adults. It is characterized by bony enlargement of the FACE; lower jaw (PROGNATHISM); hands; FEET; HEAD; and THORAX. The most common etiology is a GROWTH HORMONE-SECRETING PITUITARY ADENOMA. (From Joynt, Clinical Neurology, 1992, Ch36, pp79-80)] |
| Metatarsal Valgus | D000070591 | [A foot anomaly in which the forefoot is angled outward relative to the hindfoot.] |
| Bland White Garland Syndrome | D063748 | [A congenital coronary vessel anomaly in which the left main CORONARY ARTERY originates from the PULMONARY ARTERY instead of from AORTA. The congenital heart defect typically results in coronary artery FISTULA; LEFT-SIDED HEART FAILURE and MITRAL VALVE INSUFFICIENCY during the first months of life.] |
| Arterio-Arterial Fistula | D001159 | [Abnormal communication between two ARTERIES that may result from injury or occur as a congenital abnormality.] |
| Gerstmann Syndrome | D005862 | [A disorder of cognition characterized by the tetrad of finger agnosia, dysgraphia, DYSCALCULIA, and right-left disorientation. The syndrome may be developmental or acquired. Acquired Gerstmann syndrome is associated with lesions in the dominant (usually left) PARIETAL LOBE which involve the angular gyrus or subjacent white matter. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p457)] |
| Metatarsus Varus | D000070592 | [A foot anomaly in which the forefoot (METATARSUS) is angled inward relative to the heel.] |
| Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome | D004535 | [A heterogeneous group of autosomally inherited COLLAGEN DISEASES caused by defects in the synthesis or structure of FIBRILLAR COLLAGEN. There are numerous subtypes: classical, hypermobility, vascular, and others. Common clinical features include hyperextensible skin and joints, skin fragility and reduced wound healing capability.] |
| Collagen Diseases | D003095 | [Historically, a heterogeneous group of acute and chronic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, progressive systemic sclerosis, dermatomyositis, etc. This classification was based on the notion that "collagen" was equivalent to "connective tissue", but with the present recognition of the different types of collagen and the aggregates derived from them as distinct entities, the term "collagen diseases" now pertains exclusively to those inherited conditions in which the primary defect is at the gene level and affects collagen biosynthesis, post-translational modification, or extracellular processing directly. (From Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p1494)] |
| Low Tension Glaucoma | D057066 | [A form of glaucoma in which chronic optic nerve damage and loss of vision normally attributable to buildup of intraocular pressure occurs despite prevailing conditions of normal intraocular pressure.] |
| Periprosthetic Fractures | D057068 | [Fractures around joint replacement prosthetics or implants. They can occur intraoperatively or postoperatively.] |
| Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries | D000070598 | [Sprain or tear injuries to the ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT of the knee.] |
