What's the difference between anastomosis and anastomotic?
Anastomosis
Definition:
(n.) The inosculation of vessels, or intercommunication between two or more vessels or nerves, as the cross communication between arteries or veins.

Anastomotic
Definition:
(a.) Of or pertaining to anastomosis.
Example Sentences:
(1) The most important variable for anastomotic recurrence was mucin histochemical changes at the resection margins according to the Wald statistic value.
(2) To test this hypothesis 30 Wistar rats were subjected to laparotomy and colonic resection and treated with 5-Fluorouracil or Mitomycin C. The bursting strength of the abdominal scars and the colonic anastomotic bursting pressure revealed some interference in the rats treated with 5-Fluorouracil (Student's t test P less than 0.05) but none in the case of Mitomycin C. This preliminary study deserves to be followed up.
(3) In the cis-trans axis of the Golgi apparatus the following compartments were observed: (a) On the cis face there was a continuous osmiophilic tubular network referred to as the cis element; (b) a cis compartment composed of 3 or 4 NADPase-positive saccules perforated with pores in register forming wells that contained small vesicles; (c) a trans compartment composed of 1 or 2 TPPAse-positive elements underlying the NADPase ones, followed by 1 or 2 CMPase-positive elements that showed a flattened saccular part continuous with a network of anastomotic tubules.
(4) Nine anastomotic recurrences were detected in the 12-30 month interval; none was reoperated for cure; however, 4 metachronous colon cancers were found and resected for cure.
(5) Anastomotic devascularization has been incriminated in the development of post-operative complications (fistula, stenosis) of circular stapling.
