corpora cavernosa(Latin) cavernous bodies.[1]Corpora cavernosa is the anatomical name for two masses of erectile tissue in the penis; a penile erection occurs when the cavities in these bodies (and in a third body, the corpus spongiosum penis) fill with blood and become distended.
in articulo mortis per diminutionem capitis(Latin) at the moment of death caused by the decrease of the head.[2] Bloom's medical Latin is improvised; capitis diminutio is actually a legal term meaning the loss of one's political rights, whereas Bloom means the breaking of the neck (per frangentem cervicis).
