List of terms related to Alvus

The alvus, among anatomists, has sometimes been used to refer to the intestinal tube, from the stomach to the anus.

Alvus, in a medical sense, is taken from the state and condition of the feces, or excrements contained within that cavity. Thus, when a person is laxative, it is called alvus liquida; and when costive, alvus adstricta.
