In anatomy, relating to both the caudate nucleus and the lenticular nucleus of the brain, describing structures or pathways involving both regions.
Compound of caudate (having a tail, referring to the caudate nucleus) and lenticular (lens-shaped, referring to the lenticular nucleus), joined with -o- as a combining form in medical terminology.
This term would make any student's tongue tie in knots—it's what happens when anatomists describe brain regions named after their shapes (a tail and a lens) and then have to refer to them together in one mouthful.
