None of the above...sm - kip
[ In Reply To ..]I would say globulous. :)
Nope. That would describe globules - globus is correct
[ In Reply To ..]/
I respectfully disagree...sm - kip
[ In Reply To ..]Glob´u`lous
a. 1. Globular; spherical; orbicular.
Globular-resembling a globe. Globus is also correct, however.
GLOBUS - dont change to any other form

Globose - dsauverwald
[ In Reply To ..]Although the above poster is correct about what globulous means, the correct format is "globose abdomen".
Adj. 1. globose - having the shape of a sphere or ball; "a spherical object"; "nearly orbicular in shape"; "little globular houses like mud-wasp nests"
Glob´u`lous
a. 1. Globular; spherical; orbicular.
Both definitions pertain to "orbicular". However, I have never heard of a doctor saying globulous, they say globose - If you go to http://www.thefreedictionary.com/globose you will see that this is the word that every dictator says. You can listen to the pronunciation of this word, and it is clearly the word that most, if not every, physician dictates.
