15434002: Tendon sheath structure (body structure)

• SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure (body structure)\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...
• \An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Serous sac structure\Synovial sac consists of a wall (both a synovial membrane layer and a fibrous layer), a cavity and synovial fluid. Bursae and tendon sheaths are examples of synovial sacs. The fibrous layer is not included in the synovial sac of joint capsule because it is part of the articular capsule.\Tendon sheath structure
