Cicatrix

Example Sentences:

  • (1) A balloon-shaped lower segment of the uterus and its thinness (less than 3 mm), no continuity in the uterine contour, predominance of elevated echogenicity incorporations in the echostructure of the cicatrix site indicate the inadequacy of the myometrium at the site of the transverse cicatrix in the lower segment of the uterus.
  • (2) Implantation of saline in Gel-foam resulted in the same morphology as in hemisected animals except for increased lesion size due to mechanical factors and decreased cicatrix density during the first 30 DPO.
  • (3) A cicatrix formed in the process of posttraumatic skin regeneration is characterized by a higher cell adhesion power in the upper, and, especially, in the middle epidermis stratum.
  • (4) Possible methods of separating the dermal cicatrix from the nerves are skin flaps or muscle flaps.
  • (5) Inflammatory reactions in the vertebral canal tissues in response to disk fragment prolapse result in wide-spread cicatrix changes.
  • (6) Burn sites contaminated with FDP were evaluated by clinical observation ane to begin epithelialization, time to closure of an open wound, and the amount and type of cicatrix formation.

  • (11) Postoperative complications were excessive subepiglottic swelling after laser excision (n = 1 horse), which resolved completely in response to anti-inflammatory treatment, and subepiglottic cicatrix formation after snare excision (n = 1 horse), which required surgical excision of the cicatrix.
  • (12) The nasopharyngeal cicatrix was responsible for respiratory obstruction in only 3 horses.
  • (13) Using CO2 laser, cicatrix was released by making radial cuts and the oropharyngeal opening was widened.
