Tissue (membrane) that lines the cavities and ducts of the body communicating with the outside (digestive tract, respiratory system, urinary tract, etc.).


Mydriasis
Abnormal increase in the diameter of the pupil of the eye which no longer reacts to light and remains dilated. This condition comes from an abnormality of the eye or from the taking of certain drugs (atropine, etc.).
