bilobed

Split into halves

Bilobed means having two lobes—rounded projections or divisions.

The term appears in biology and medicine to describe structures split into two distinct sections: a bilobed leaf, a bilobed nucleus.

Some organs or tumors are described as bilobed when they have two rounded portions connected at a central point.
