| ♦ | A02.3.04.001 | Cavea thoracis The term compages thoracis was introduced in the fourth edition of Nomina Anatomica as "a new term to denote the thoracic skeleton" (footnote 34, page A 28). However, it has not received wide acceptance and the appropriate term is cavea - a cage, rather than the previous cavum - a cavity. |
| ♠ | A02.3.04.002 | Cavitas thoracis Because this entry is referenced in chapter 7, the two entries for this entity are made identical by adding cavitas thoracica as a Latin official synonym and deleting thorax (English official synonym in chapter 7) as it is not an exact synonym. |
| ♦ | A02.3.04.003 | Apertura thoracis superior The terms "thoracic inlet" and "thoracic outlet" have been used differently by clinicians. Thus, the thoracic outlet syndrome refers to the thoracic inlet of this terminology. |
| ♦ | A02.3.04.004 | Apertura thoracis inferior The terms "thoracic inlet" and "thoracic outlet" have been used differently by clinicians. Thus, the thoracic outlet syndrome refers to the thoracic inlet of this terminology. |
