Fimbria

In addition, if the scar tissue forms in and around the fingerlike ends of your tube called the fimbria, the tubes may actually seal shut, in which case all chances for natural conception are lost. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

I'm particularly amused by the delicately portrayed fimbria on the first cake's Fallopian tubes. ❋ Jen (2009)

Sipped or swallowed, it went shuddering through its new home and branched out in patterns--- or so it seemed after the second glass--- like the ice-ferns that covered the window panes, but radiating warmth and happiness instead of cold, and carrying a ghostly message of comfort to the uttermost fimbria . . . ❋ Walter Jon Williams (2007)

The fingerlike ends fimbria of the fallopian tube sweep across the surface of the ovary and propel the egg into the tube after ovulation. ❋ The Boston Women’s Health Book Collective (2005)

In addition to the push your egg receives from the hormonal surge of LH, your fimbria, the petal-like fingers of your fallopian tube, also play an important role. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

Using a gentle sucking action that coaxes your egg from its shell, your fimbria actually reach down and massage your ovary just before ovulation. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

As it pops from its shell, the egg is “caught” by the fimbria, the fingerlike ends of the fallopian tube, and then gently swept inside. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

The fimbria or tube ends, which help your egg to ovulate ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

Fallopian tube abnormalities: These include blockages inside the tube (resulting from infection, ectopic pregnancies, or endometriosis) as well as damaged fimbria (tubal ends) and internal tubal adhesions. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

Fimbrioplasty: This procedure is used to correct mild to moderate damage to your fimbria. ❋ Niels H. Lauersen (2000)

The dentate gyrus which may be considered as a modified part of the hippocampus is partially separated from the gyrus hippocampus by the hippocampal fissure and from the fimbria by the fimbrio-dentate sulcus; it is intimately connected with the hippocampal gyrus and the hippocampus. ❋ Unknown (1918)

When followed backward the dentate gyrus separates from the fimbria at the splenium, loses its incisions and knobs, and as the fasciola cinerea passes over the splenium onto the dorsal surface of the corpus callosum and spreads out into a thin layer of gray substance known as the indusium, which can be traced forward around the genu of the corpus callosum into the gyrus subcallosus. ❋ Unknown (1918)

Each tube is about 10 cm. long, and is described as consisting of three portions: (1) the isthmus, or medial constricted third; (2) the ampulla, or intermediate dilated portion, which curves over the ovary; and (3) the infundibulum with its abdominal ostium, surrounded by fimbriæ, one of which, the ovarian fimbria is attached to the ovary. ❋ Unknown (1918)

The thickened edge of gray substance becomes the gyrus dentatus, the fasciola cinerea and the supra - and subcallosal gyri, while the free edge of the white substance forms the fimbria hippocampi and the body and crus of the fornix. ❋ Unknown (1918)

It is distributed to the hippocampus, fimbria, tela chorioidea of the third ventricle, and choroid plexus. ❋ Unknown (1918)

The tubal extremity is near the external iliac vein; to it are attached the ovarian fimbria of the uterine tube and a fold of peritoneum, the suspensory ligament of the ovary, which is directed upward over the iliac vessels and contains the ovarian vessels. ❋ Unknown (1918)

These fibers pass over into the fimbria and are continued into the fornix. ❋ Unknown (1918)

About one-fourth of all the fibers of the fimbria are large projection fibers, the other three-fourths consist of fine commissural fibers which pass from the hippocampus of one side through the fimbria and hippocampal commissure (ventral psalterium or lyre), to the fimbria and hippocampus of the opposite side where they penetrate the pyramidal layer and terminate in the stratum radiatum. ❋ Unknown (1918)
