(1) This study was undertaken in the rat to determine if muscle encased in collagen would subsequently become either necrotic or atrophic.
(2) Special culture techniques were used in an attempt to recover bacteria adhering to the smooth-surfaced implant and encased in glycocalyx biofilm.
(3) Among arterial abnormalities observed in 42 patients (55%), increased or decreased vascularity and displacement were of limited diagnostic value, but encasement correctly predicted cancer in 18 of 21 cases and irresectability in nine of these.
(4) The angiographic appearance of the tumors was the same in all five cases: hypervascularity of the tumor including encasement, dilatation, tortuosity and displacement of feeding arteries, remarkable tumor stain and early venous filling.
(5) The tip of a capillary-encased, carbon-fiber electrode is recessed, and tetrathiafulvalene-tetracyanoquinodimethane crystals are electrochemically deposited in the recessed tip.
(6) Modified human umbilical vein allografts tanned with glutaraldehyde and encased in a polyester mesh were used as arterial substitutes in 13 femoropopliteal reconstructive procedures.
(7) Other portographic findings were: encasement (19%), avascular area (19%), occlusion (10%), narrowing (4%), neovascularization (4%), tumor staining (2%).
(8) While the radiographic findings mimicked acute gastric outlet obstruction, delayed films demonstrated narrowing and encasement of the duodenum at the site of obstruction in all three patients.
(9) When located in the retroperitoneal tissues, the spleen or the pancreas, the tumor is hypervascular with encasement of arteries and compression or invasion of veins.
(10) A tail about 100 mmu in length is encased in a contractile sheath and terminates in a tail plate.
(11) Mediastinal recurrence of an incompletely resected and slowly growing adenoid cystic carcinoma of the left main bronchus had encased the right main pulmonary artery.
(12) Photograph: AFP Saint Laurent became an object of immediate fascination: quiet, timid, with neatly parted schoolboy hair, anxious eyes lurking behind thick glasses and a frail body encased in a tight black suit.
(13) The presence of strands of PAS positive cells in the outer zones of adrenal cortex just before the peak of the breeding season indicates that these cells may be in the process of migration and infiltration from the zona glomerulosa to the zona reticularis where they become encased by a thin layer of connective tissue.
(14) (1985): Two benign patterns, the enchondroma encasement pattern and the island of cartilage patterns, were the most common findings in cartilaginous tumors of unknown biological behaviour.
(15) The image quality, tumor stain, and arterial encasements were evaluated and diameters of vessels visualized by IA DSA were measured.
(16) Two encasement lesions and a tumor thrombus were imaged only on the RACCO projection.
(17) The most discriminating criteria are ventricular encasement or an original site in the white matter, as well as the moderate character of the edema and of the mass effect relative to the volume of the tumor.
(18) But imagine that the victim of an industrial accident with a paralyzed hand could achieve new levels of function by inducing axonal regrowth through a synthetic nerve guidance channel; or that a Parkinsonian patient's symptoms could be relieved by implanting in his brain neural tissue encased in a selectively permeable polymer envelope; or that the inexorable progression of the vascular complications of juvenile diabetes could be stopped, even reversed, by a membrane-protected xenograft of insulin-producing tissue.
(19) While the etched electrodes did not follow electrochemical theory as well as the glass-encased electrode, the etched electrode was found to be suitable for the amperometric measurement of the secretion of catecholamines from isolated bovine adrenal cells.
(20) When the adenoma encases the intracavernous internal carotid artery or reaches as far as to the lateral aspect of the artery, invasion was present in all cases.
Enchase
Definition:
(v. t.) To incase or inclose in a border or rim; to surround with an ornamental casing, as a gem with gold; to encircle; to inclose; to adorn.
(v. t.) To chase; to ornament by embossing or engraving; as, to enchase a watch case.
