Catacromyodian

/ˌkætəkroʊmiˈoʊdiən/ adjective

A highly obscure anatomical or medical term, likely referring to some structural relationship involving muscles or muscle-like tissues in an unusual arrangement or direction.

From Greek 'kata-' (down) + 'kroma' (color, or possibly tissue) + 'myodian' (relating to muscles). This appears to be an extremely rare Victorian medical coinage.
