HUMAN PHENOTYPE - ANNOTATIONS

The Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO) is downloaded weekly from http://compbio.charite.de/hudson/job/hpo/lastStableBuild/artifact/ontology/release/hp.obo. The file downloaded is considered the "last stable build" available for the ontology. For more about the HPO, view their website at http://www.human-phenotype-ontology.org/.

Term:Abnormal peripheral nervous system morphology

Accession:HP:0000759 term browser browse the term
Definition:A structural abnormality of the peripheral nervous system, which is composed of the nerves that lead to or branch off from the central nervous system. This includes the cranial nerves (olfactory and optic nerves are technically part of the central nervous system).
Comment:The peripheral nervous system is divided into autonomic and somatic components, which both include afferent (sensory) and efferent (motor) nerves.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: Abnormal peripheral nervous system structure
 related_synonym: Peripheral nervous system disease
 alt_id: HP:0003483
