gastroenterostomy- surgical creation of an opening between the stomach wall and the small intestines; performed when the normal opening has been eliminated gastrostomy- surgical creation of an opening through the abdominal wall into the stomach (as for gastrogavage) ...
jejunostomy- surgical creation of an opening between the jejunum and the anterior abdominal wall; will allow artificial feeding major surgery- any surgical procedure that involves anesthesia or respiratory assistance microsurgery- surgery using operating microscopes and miniaturized precision instruments to perf...
The word cystostomy refers to ___. A、 surgical removal of the bladder B、 surgical fixation of the bladder C、 the construction of an artificial opening from the bladder D、 disease of the bladder
Anastomosis of the small bowel is one of the most commonly performed GI surgical procedures because it is required for reconstituting continuity of the intestine after resection, bypassing an obstructed intestinal segment, and forming an enteric reservoir. Mechanical sutures and staples are established fo...
A 16 Fr support sheath was then used for fistula creation, and a 15 Fr gastric catheter was inserted through the opening. The distal end of the balloon was filled with 3 ml of sterile distilled water, and the catheter was then withdrawn, with any resistance prompting CT verification of the...
the creation of a proper knot during the suturing process with sufficient tension is challenging. To avoid knot tying, conventional smooth sutures have been upgraded to barbed sutures that offer self-anchoring to tissues, eliminating the need for a knot27. Although barbed mechanisms have been introd...
Because creation of the osteotomy pursuant to the surgical plan calls for a sequence of several drill bits 165 having different diameters, the guide-tube tools 190 have different diameters to engage the drill bits 165 in a relatively tight fashion to prevent the drill bit from drilling at the ...
When used for intracardiac surgery on valves, septal defects, intra-cardiac masses, or in the pulmonary circulation, the creation of complete deep hypothermic circulatory arrest ("hypothermic circulatory arrest") may be required to create a bloodless field. In certain situations it will be possible...
A method is set forth for making a computer model of patient's jaws on the basis of digital information. Digital data about the jaws, teeth, soft tissues and artificial teeth is joi
The current invention is based on the surprising discovery that certain variations in the structure, geometry and quantity of the synthetic material or substrate on which it is supported promote improved tissue growth and/or allow the creation of new biological composite materials (“biomaterials”) ...
