Label	Id	Description
Meyer's loop of optic radiation	UBERON_0035935	[part of the optic radiation which sweeps back on itself into the temporal lobe, just lateral to the temporal horn of the lateral ventricle. ]
nasopharyngeal gland	UBERON_0008310	[A gland that is part of a nasopharynx.]
calcaneocuboid joint	UBERON_0011964	[Calcaneocuboid Articulation (articulation of the calcaneus with the cuboid). The ligaments connecting the calcaneus with the cuboid are five in number, viz. , the articular capsule, the dorsal calcaneocuboid, part of the bifurcated, the long plantar, and the plantar calcaneocuboid.]
mesotarsal joint	UBERON_0011969	[An ankle joint that passes between the proximal and distal tarsals.]
hypophyseal cartilage	UBERON_0009640	[forms around the developing pituitary, and together with prechordal cartilages creates body of sphenoid bone]
crurotarsal joint	UBERON_0011980	[A joint that connects the bones of the crus to the proximal tarsal bones]
arcuate fasciculus	UBERON_0035937	[The arcuate fasciculus (Latin, curved bundle) is the neural pathway connecting the posterior part of the temporoparietal junction with the frontal cortex in the brain and is now considered as part of the Superior longitudinal fasciculus.]
amiculum of inferior olive	UBERON_0035938
white matter of myelencephalon	UBERON_0019262	[A white matter that is part of the myelencephalon.]
amiculum	UBERON_0035939	[a dense surrounding coat of white fibers, as the sheath of the inferior olive and of the dentate nucleus.]
costotransverse joint	UBERON_0011967	[The facet of the tubercle of the rib forms an articulation with the adjacent transverse process of a thoracic vertebra. This is a plane type synovial joint called the costotransverse joint. This articulation is present in all but the eleventh and twelfth ribs. Ribs 1 to 10 have two joints in close proximity posteriorly; the costovertebral joints and the costotranseverse joints. This arrangement restrains the motion of the ribs allowing them to work in a parallel fashion during breathing. If a typical rib had only one joint posteriorly the resultant swivel action would allow a rib to be non-parallel with respect to the neighboring ribs making for a very inefficient respiratory mechanism. The ventral rami innervate the costotransverse joints. Therefore, therapeutic medial branch blocks are ineffectual. The ligaments of the joint are: Articular capsule Posterior costotransverse Anterior costotransverse Ligament of the neck of the rib Ligament of the tubercle of the rib]
costovertebral joint	UBERON_0002292	[The costovertebral joints are the articulations that connect the heads of the ribs with the bodies of the thoracic vertebrae. Joining of ribs to the vertebrae occurs at two places, the head and the tubercle of the rib. Two convex facets from the head attach to two adjacent vertebrae. This forms a trochoid joint, which is strengthened by the ligament of the head and the intercapital ligament. Articulation of the tubercle is to the transverse process of the adjacent vertebrae. This articulation is reinforced by the dorsal costotransverse ligament. [WP,unvetted].]
radio-carpal joint	UBERON_0011968	[A skeletal joint that connects a radius bone and connects a carpal skeleton.]
eyelid subcutaneous connective tissue	UBERON_0009648	[A eyelid connective tissue that is part of a hypodermis.]
eyelid connective tissue	UBERON_0003581	[A portion of connective tissue that is part of a eyelid [Automatically generated definition].]
lumbar sympathetic nerve trunk	UBERON_0009646	[A sympathetic nerve trunk that is part of a lower back.]
sympathetic nerve trunk	UBERON_0004295	[A nerve trunk that is part of a sympathetic nervous system [Automatically generated definition].]
obsolete regional part of eye	UBERON_0022620
ampullary gland	UBERON_0009645	[A paired accessory, glandular, androgen-dependent outpouchings of the proximal ductus deferens, one on each side, that produce and secrete lipids and glycogen, components of the seminal fluid; they open into the ampullae at the level of the colliculus seminalis, are lined by simple columnar epithelium with large, oval nuclei, and may be distinguished from those of the prostate as they are surrounded by a characteristic, dense, fibromuscular stroma]
vas deferens	UBERON_0001000	[A secretory duct that transports sperm from the testis. In mammals this is a continuation of the epididymis and ends in the prostatic urethra where it terminates to form ejaculatory duct]
